    Who really wants to buy shares and then trade and sell in significant numbers outside exchanges?

      The idea is that this would be the software used to run the actual transfer of shares traded on the exchanges rather than what is used today which is just closed ledger entries on books of all the participants. But the current manual process takes multiple days to settle each transaction and this would be instantaneous, and in one transparent distributed ledger.

        You can do that more efficiently with transparency logs instead
