Robinhood CEO Unveils Plans for 24/7 Stock Token Trading and DeFi Services
Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev has announced upcoming significant expansions for the trading platform, including the introduction of round-the-clock trading for tokenized stocks and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) services. Tenev highlighted that real-time settlement in traditional stock markets has been a persistent challenge due to the complexities of managing legacy stakeholders. Tokenization, he stated, offers a solution to this.
In Europe, Robinhood has already launched over 2,000 tokens representing U.S.-listed stocks, enabling European traders to invest in these securities and receive dividend yields. The forthcoming rollout of 24/7 stock token trading and DeFi services will empower investors with self-custody of their stock tokens, opening avenues for lending, staking, and other DeFi functionalities.
