Binance Launches Trading for 7,000 U.S. Stocks and ETFs, Plans Tokenized bStocks Rollout
On June 1, 2026, Binance launched trading in over 7,000 U.S. stocks and ETFs for eligible non-U.S. users, allowing fractional share purchases from around $5 and 24/5 trading using digital assets like USDT, USDC, and BNB. The product is integrated into the Binance app, with brokerage and custody handled by partners Nest Trading and Alpaca. Binance charges zero commission but may apply platform fees. The exchange also previewed bStocks, a tokenized securities layer tied to the stocks and ETFs, though no rollout timeline has been announced. This move places Binance in competition with Kraken's xStocks and Robinhood's stock tokens in the EU. According to CoinGecko's RWA Report 2026, tokenized stocks market cap reached $486.69 million as of March 31, 2026. The product is not available to U.S. residents and faces regulatory scrutiny due to the fusion of crypto and traditional securities.
