Robinhood Expands Tokenized Stock Offerings in Europe, Bridging Traditional and Crypto Markets
Robinhood has launched tokenized versions of over 200 U.S. stocks and ETFs for European users, marking a significant step in blending traditional finance with blockchain technology. The offering includes high-profile private companies like SpaceX and OpenAI, though the tokens lack shareholder rights such as voting power or dividends.
The trading app operates under Lithuanian regulatory approval, enabling service across multiple EU countries. While the U.S. remains excluded for now, Robinhood hints at potential expansion pending regulatory clarity. The move underscores growing institutional interest in crypto integration, even as it challenges conventional equity frameworks.
