Tokenized Crypto Treasury Companies Magnify Risks of Volatile Assets: Execs
Digital asset treasury (DAT) companies that tokenize their stocks on the blockchain compound the risks to investors and their own businesses, according to several crypto industry executives.
“Blockchains trade 24/7, whereas traditional markets have specific hours of operation,” Kadan Stadelmann, chief technology officer of the Komodo decentralized exchange platform, told Cointelegraph.
Sharp onchain price movements that occur outside of traditional market operating hours could lead to a run on the stock of a treasury company that has issued both tokenized and traditional shares, without the company having sufficient time to respond to a price hit.
