Breaking: eToro Disrupts TradFi with Ethereum-Based Tokenized US Stocks Launch

Wall Street's paper certificates just got a blockchain upgrade—whether they like it or not.

eToro slams the gas pedal on tokenization, bridging legacy markets with DeFi's wild west. The trading platform will mint real-world stocks as ERC-20 tokens, letting Ethereum wallets hold fractionalized slices of Apple or Tesla.

No more waiting for T+2 settlements or praying your broker doesn't halt trading. These assets trade 24/7 with smart contract transparency—assuming the SEC doesn't throw a regulatory wrench in the gears.

Traditional finance dinosaurs scoff, but the move taps into a $15T stock market hungry for blockchain efficiency. Even Goldman Sachs can't ignore the irony: their clients will soon custody 'stocks' via MetaMask.

One problem solved, another created. Now you can lose money on meme stocks and gas fees simultaneously.
