Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev called on US policymakers to modernize securities rules to allow tokenized stocks to trade in America. Robinhood Stock Tokens hold $32.2 million in value across 191 assets, representing 1.34% of the $2.4 billion tokenized equity market, according to RWA.xyz. The SEC shelved in August its discussion of the « innovation exemption » that would have allowed blockchain venues to trade tokenized equities outside existing market-structure rules. Robinhood Chain, launched July 1 on Arbitrum, reached 100 million transactions in roughly three weeks and covers more than 190 US equities across over 120 countries. Tenev argued for real-time settlement, round-the-clock trading, and portability as key reasons to modernize the regulatory framework.
