With the rapid development of financial technology, blockchain technology is gradually permeating the global securities trading market. This paper delves into the current status of blockchain technology applications in this field, covering key aspects such as trade settlement and clearing, securities issuance and trading, identity verification, and compliance management. Through detailed case studies, it powerfully demonstrates its significant reduction in settlement cycles and intermediate links, thereby improving trade efficiency; its substantial reduction in operational costs and additional expenditures due to human errors, thereby lowering costs; and its effective resistance to cyber-attacks through data encryption and tamper-proof characteristics, thereby enhancing security. At the same time, it explores the positive role of blockchain technology in improving market trust by offering transparent transaction records and reducing information asymmetry. The paper further analyzes the challenges faced by blockchain technology in the global securities trading market, including issues with technology maturity such as performance scaling and interoperability, regulatory and compliance issues such as incomplete legal frameworks and policy uncertainties, industry acceptance issues such as conservative attitudes from traditional institutions and insufficient technology popularization education, and security risks such as emerging vulnerabilities and private key management risks. On this basis, it provides a forward-looking outlook on the potential and development trends of blockchain technology in the global securities trading market in the future, including integration trends with other emerging technologies, its role in promoting cross-border transactions and financial market integration, the possibility of innovative financial products and services, and the resulting changes in market patterns. In summary, this paper provides a comprehensive and systematic study of the current status, advantages, challenges, and future development of blockchain technology in the global securities trading market, offering valuable references and insights for further development in this field.
