Abstract

This study explores the transformative impact of blockchain technology on the stock market, emphasizing its implications for transparency, security, and operational efficiency. Investigating key aspects such as stock trading, securities tracing, margin financing, and market risk surveillance, the analysis anticipates revolutionary changes. The advent of decentralized exchanges and tokenization is poised to enhance market accessibility and reduce settlement times. Blockchain's immutability is expected to streamline securities tracing, mitigating fraud risks, while smart contracts may automate margin financing processes, minimizing counterparty risk. Additionally, real-time data feeds and immutable audit trails promise more effective market risk surveillance. The study underscores regulatory, scalability, and privacy concerns, emphasizing collaborative solutions and suggesting a future research agenda that includes exploring emerging trends, regulatory adaptations, and sustainable solutions for a comprehensive understanding of blockchain's evolving role in the financial sector.
