Avalanche Foundation Names Six Research Grantees From 175+
On Nov. 11 the Avalanche Foundation named six funded research teams from more than 175 proposals, covering AVAX valuation and validator economics.
The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is the largest stock exchange in the United States and is owned by Intercontinental Exchange (ICE). On this site it appears for its planned tokenized securities platform, which is set to use Avalanche as the ledger behind its clearing.
NYSE has said it is building an affiliated platform for trading tokenized securities, designed to support trading, clearing and settlement around the clock for its subscribers. The platform is subject to regulatory approvals and had not launched as of November 2026.
On November 9, 2026, citing a Wall Street Journal report, NYSE posted that Avalanche will provide the core ledger technology for the clearing firm on the platform. NYSE did not name the clearing firm in that post. Earlier, in September 2026, Ava Labs President Charley Cooper told The Block that NYSE had spent about a year testing Avalanche technology.
Say the clearing firm on an NYSE-affiliated platform will use an Avalanche ledger. Do not say NYSE itself trades or lists stocks on Avalanche, and do not call the platform live until NYSE or ICE says it has launched. Attribute the WSJ report through NYSE's own post. ICE is the parent company and is a separate entity from NYSE.

Intercontinental Exchange named a third partner for its tokenized NYSE platform on Sept. 23 — Blockchain.com, for distribution — and still hasn't named a settlement blockchain. At Avalanche Summit NYC, ICE's own VP said Avalanche "checks a lot of those boxes."
