Just a few stories about STO tokens and exchanges. It's only just beginning IMHO. The quotes below are just small snippets from worthwhile articles IMO.
"There’s a lot of forward momentum around tokenized securities, so much so that based on their current trajectory, I believe security tokens are going to become a common part of Wall Street parlance in the near future . Investors won’t just be able to buy and sell tokens on mainstream exchanges, however; “crypto-native” companies are also throwing their hats into this ring."

"Today, we’ll talk about a topic that’s been getting a lot of attention lately: security token exchanges. It seems with every week that passes, a new security token exchange is born ."

"But cryptoassets are already coming of age. With the arrival of the security token offering (STO), the crypto space is beginning to reach an uncharted level of legitimacy in the financial community. We are about to witness perhaps even more disruption in markets and society than we’ve been promised ."
"STOs also require licensing approved by the SEC and other regulatory bodies. In other words, security coins have the features and protections of traditional assets, such as a share of company stock, while also leveraging the benefits of being a digital asset. And virtually any kind of physical asset — real estate, equity, etc. — can be “tokenized,” or used to back a security coin ."

"MSX, the newly launched fintech arm of the Malta Stock Exchange, has inked several new deals aimed at creating new marketplaces for tokenized securities.
The newly inked deal sees MSX team up with Neufund, a platform for securities tokenization and issuance, to build a "regulated and decentralized, global stock exchange for listing and trading tokenized securities alongside crypto-assets ," according to a press release."

" Once Bakkt has tons of digital tokens stored in its “warehouse,” institutional investors can trade all day without having to report transactions to the blockchain. But while all of this is going on in the background, retail customers can simply buy Bitcoin as they always have, and then use those bitcoins to buy a cup of coffee. "

"As a regulated stock trading platform, Swiss Exchange further said the SDX will have the "same standard of oversight and regulation" upon completion and will be supervised by Swiss financial regulators.
In an email response, a representative from SIX, a company that owns Swiss Exchange, told CoinDesk that the development process will be divided into several phases, with an initial plan for debut next year.
"The first step is to build up a regulated exchange platform. In a second phase we will offer the service to tokenize existing bankable assets which will be followed by the tokenization of non-bankable assets. Following an agile approach to meet the needs of today's dynamic environment, the first services will be rolled out in mid-2019," the company said.
However, the exchange noted that the goal of the platform is not for trading cryptocurrencies but rather a marketplace where traditional investors can digitize their assets using the technology."
