Nasdaq’s interest in crypto dates back to 2022, when it announced plans to offer custody services for digital assets. However, those plans were abandoned a year later due to shifting regulatory conditions. Despite this setback, Nasdaq has hinted that it may still consider launching a crypto exchange, depending on how the regulatory landscape evolves.
The Broader Push for Regulatory Clarity
Nasdaq is not alone in seeking clearer guidelines.

Their discussions highlight the growing demand for a structured and transparent approach to digital asset regulation.
