Recent news about US regulators advancing tokenized stock trading plans has sparked heated discussions in the market. What is behind this policy?



On the surface, it appears to be financial innovation, but the underlying logic is worth pondering. Traditional financial systems want to impose their centralized rules onto the crypto market under the guise of "tokenization." A collision of two worlds is happening.

From PEPE to SHIB, these grassroots projects' liquidity and valuation are entirely determined by the market, and no one can monopolize pricing power. But what will happen once policies tighten and compliance requirements increase layer by layer? A large amount of liquidity could be drained, as if a war of information asymmetry is being fought.

The key to this game lies in who holds the pricing power. Wall Street has capital, channels, and regulatory influence. If the policy direction for tokenized stocks is ultimately dominated by these institutions, retail investors' options will inevitably be squeezed.

But there is no need to be overly pessimistic. The true value of decentralized assets and autonomous custody will, in fact, be re-evaluated in this process. The key is to understand the changes in the game rules and adjust strategies in a timely manner—not passively waiting, but actively responding.

Here comes the old trick of harvesting new investors again, using a different disguise but the same old method.

Wall Street just wants to change our game rules, haha --- Basically, they still want to seize the narrative, and retail investors will be cut again --- Now it's all good, under the guise of compliance, they’ve drained all the liquidity. We might as well wait to be wiped out --- Instead of waiting for policies to come down, why not change our approach and play self-custody now? At least we can hold onto our own tokens --- PEPE's days might really be coming to an end, unless... we find a way to move them to truly decentralized places

Wall Street's tricks are deep, and they're just using the guise of innovation to harvest again --- So in the end, the crypto world still relies on self-custody to survive --- Just waiting to see the clash between retail and institutions, I wouldn't be surprised who wins --- Tokenization? Ha, still trying to put us in chains --- The day liquidity is drained is the real bear market; everything else is just the appetizer --- Anyway, I still hold my self-custody wallet, no matter what they do --- This logic is similar to the crackdown on internet finance years ago; in the end, big institutions got the benefit --- The question is, how can retail outpace Wall Street traders? --- Whoever holds the pricing power is the boss, it's not that complicated --- Should we be buying the truly decentralized assets now?

Those guys on Wall Street have had their eyes on our farmland for a long time. It's just the same old game of pricing power, the same old tricks. True autonomous custody is the way to go; we need to wake up. Honestly, only decentralization can keep us alive. When regulators come, it actually helps us see clearly; retail investors need to save themselves. If we don't move now, we'll just get harvested.

Wall Street wants to come back and harvest again, just changing their disguise --- Why do PEPE and SHIB get to be in control? It's pure greed --- What sounds like innovation is actually just trying to push us into their cage --- Once the policy is finalized, do retail investors still have a way out? --- Self-custody is the right path; don't be fooled by the superficial tokenization --- The game of pricing power is always big fish eating small fish --- But on the other hand, truly decentralized assets should be bouncing back --- This move is clearly a "rescue" tactic for Wall Street; whether it succeeds is still uncertain --- Adjusting strategies in time sounds easy, but how exactly should we adjust?

Wall Street wants to play the "tokenization" game again, hilarious, in the end, they still have to harvest retail investors Seemingly innovative but actually domesticated, just the old tricks Just give up on the illusion, the pricing power has been there all along, we are just the leeks Wait, could the real opportunity be in truly decentralized things? That's worth betting on

The folks on Wall Street just want to turn our playground into their rules, a typical way to cut the leeks. Wait, isn't this just a centralized scam in disguise? Truly decentralized assets are the way to go; everything else is just an illusion.

Wall Street wants to try new tricks again, be careful not to get cut It sounds like the same old story, tokenization is just a cover How long PEPEs can survive is really hard to say This round is truly an information war, retail investors will always be retail investors However, decentralized assets are actually more valuable, quite interesting Instead of waiting to be drained, it's better to control your own wallet Whatever rules change, adapt accordingly; having the initiative is the most important
