For instance, the planned rollout of tokenized stocks through infrastructure involving major financial institutions, including BlackRock, the New York Stock Exchange, the S&amp;P, Nasdaq, and the DTCC, which he said is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/finance\/investing\/jpmorgan-blackrock-and-goldman-to-tokenize-stocks-treasurys-0a776ba7\">expected<\/a> to move forward in October after tokenization platforms were effectively tested through earlier market activity.<\/p>\n<p>Doctor Profit cited rumors that the CLARITY Act could pass in August as another potential catalyst, and added that regulatory clarity would make it easier for institutions to enter the crypto market and accelerate tokenization. However, prediction market traders have since <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/clarity-act-odds-crash-to-31-after-trump-push-fails-to-break-senate-deadlock\/\">become<\/a> less optimistic about the bill\u2019s prospects after the implied odds of its passage declined in recent days.<\/p>\n<h2>ETFs Stay Positive<\/h2>\n<p>After suffering eight straight weeks of heavy outflows, US spot Bitcoin ETFs have <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/2-in-a-row-bitcoin-etfs-mark-another-green-week-but-ethereum-wins\/\">continued<\/a> their recovery with another week of net inflows.
