Robinhood pushes for US approval of tokenized stocks to lead a global financial tech revolution.

Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev envisions a major technological shift in finance driven by tokenization, prediction markets, and AI trading tools. Robinhood has launched tokenized exposure to 190 US stocks accessible globally and sees US regulatory approval as crucial to keep this innovation domestic. The company reported record Q2 2026 revenue of $1.31 billion and $369 billion in platform assets, with strong growth in prediction markets and AI-powered trading. If US regulators approve, Robinhood aims to become a key gateway to a 24/7 blockchain-based financial system, preventing liquidity from moving overseas.
