An On-Chain Financial Instrument is a financial product or contract whose terms, execution, and ownership are recorded and managed directly on a blockchain or distributed ledger. These instruments leverage smart contracts for automation and transparency. They represent a digital evolution of traditional financial assets. Examples include tokenized securities and decentralized derivatives.

Regulatory bodies are currently grappling with how to classify and oversee these novel instruments, particularly concerning investor protection and market integrity. The debate centers on adapting existing rules or creating new frameworks for this digital asset class.
