Fifty publicly traded companies, including Nvidia, Nike, and Costco, formally objected to having their shares tokenized on OKXICE, the joint venture between OKX and Intercontinental Exchange. The number of objecting companies rose from 26 in late October to 50 by November 2, 2026. The objections challenge the venture’s tokenized-stock model under a temporary SEC exemption that gives issuers 30 days to veto unaffiliated third-party tokenization of their shares.
