Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) chief information officer and technology and data group executive Dan Chesterman said in an interview that while there are obstacles to listing cryptocurrencies directly, the company could consider listing tokenized real-world assets.

Chesterman reiterated that the decision to suspend the clearing and settlement system for blockchain-based upgrades was not a "rejection" of blockchain technology, and the exchange continued to work with infrastructure firm Digital Assets on its blockchain development platform Synfini.
