This week, the New York Stock Exchange chose Avalanche to provide infrastructure for its upcoming tokenized securities platform. On Monday, Ava Labs announced that Avalanche will serve as the "core ledger technology" for the tokenized securities platform being developed by the NYSE's parent company, Intercontinental Exchange. The product is designed to support 24/7 trading, clearing, and settlement of tokenized securities, pending regulatory approval.Market maker GSR research analyst Carlos Guzman stated that this is a "significant victory for the project," as the NYSE's choice of its technology for settlement greatly enhances institutional credibility and validates the value that blockchain technology brings to traditional financial infrastructure through instant settlement and programmability. Luther Maday, North America head of crypto payment company Mercuryo, mentioned that this decision was made after approximately a year of testing on Avalanche, indicating that the network has passed tests for performance, reliability, and control.Experts also remind that providing infrastructure does not necessarily mean the long-term value of the AVAX token will rise. Guzman pointed out that while the NYSE will use Avalanche infrastructure for clearing and settlement, actual transactions will still occur off-chain, with related activities running on dedicated infrastructure rather than the public C-Chain that carries most of the network's activities. Misha Putiatin, founder of Symbiotic, stated that the main challenge for Avalanche is whether it can achieve "value capture" that is difficult for other blockchains. According to Decrypt data, AVAX rose 3.6% in the past 24 hours to $8.64.
