Binance has introduced US equities trading, giving eligible users access to more than 7,000 US listed stocks and ETFs.
According to the firm, the launch reflects Binance's belief that financial inclusion grows meaningfully when access to opportunities becomes simpler and more integrated.
Binance will also soon introduce tokenised US stocks, marking another step in its vision of a multi-asset financial super app.
Yi He, co-founder and co-CEO of Binance, states: “We have set out to reach the next 3 billion users, and to do that, we need to make it simpler for users to access opportunities across asset classes, diversify their portfolios, and move more easily between traditional investing and onchain finance.
“That is what a multi-asset financial super app should help people do.”
Enabled through Binance's Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) broker-dealer, Nest Trading Limited, the new offering expands Binance's multi-asset platform by bringing US equities trading and a path to tokenisation into a unified user experience.
By reducing friction around how users access and hold major traditional assets, Binance says it is building on an approach “already proven” in products like perpetual futures.
Eligible users will be able to trade US equities with zero commission, purchase fractional shares starting at US$5, and have direct ownership of the equities held by a US regulated clearing broker, including eligibility for applicable dividends and corporate actions.
Select equities will also be available for 24/5 trading.
Fully paid securities lending (FPSL) will be available, allowing eligible users to earn passive income by lending their stock holdings.
In the coming weeks, and subject to regulatory approvals, Binance will introduce bStocks, tokenised securities representing select US stocks and ETFs, issued by BTECH Holdings, a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) registered in ADGM.
Once launched, bStocks tokenised securities will be available for trading on Binance Exchange.
Binance will offer a native bridge from traditional stock ownership to programmable, always-on tokenised assets at a global scale, unlocking mobility and utility for real-world equities within and beyond the Binance ecosystem.
The firm says this will enable continuous onchain access and potential DeFi applications, from lending to liquidity provision.
Richard Teng, co-CEO of Binance, comments: “Tokenisation has the potential to reshape financial markets by giving users greater control, more flexibility, and ultimately more financial freedom.
“We see a significant opportunity to make financial assets more accessible, more useful, and more connected across traditional and digital markets.”
