Payward Services, Kraken’s B2B subsidiary, announced on August 5, 2026 a partnership with Broadridge Financial Solutions enabling eligible xStocks token holders to exercise proxy voting rights on shares underlying their tokens. Broadridge processes over $18 trillion daily in securities across both traditional and tokenized markets. The xStocks platform, which now supports over 500 tokenized assets including equities, ETFs and pre-IPO offerings, has become the most widely traded tokenized equities framework by transaction volume. xStocks tokens remain unavailable to US investors. This partnership addresses objections from institutional investors for whom profit participation without voting rights was incompatible with their fiduciary duties.
