The pattern of U.S. stock trading is quietly changing

Recently, Nasdaq officially submitted a 23-hour trading plan to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC). In simple terms, it aims to bring the non-trading hours under regulatory oversight, moving night trading from the gray area to formalization.

Interestingly, this move, when viewed alongside the regulatory body's attitude shift towards on-chain assets last week, helps us better understand the new approach of the U.S. financial market. The traditional stock market is expanding its trading window, while authorities are also embracing the regulated development of crypto assets—both signals point in the same direction: a more open and inclusive market landscape.

This move may seem sudden, but it is actually a response to the trend.
