Robinhood Crypto Lead: Robinhood's on-chain DEX volume nears $50 billion, stock token asset TVL exceeds $170 million

Odaily News: Johann Kerbrat, Head of Crypto at Robinhood, posted on X platform that all Robinhood stock tokens are 1:1 backed by securely custodied real shares, and corresponding real shares of the company are purchased simultaneously when tokens are minted. Stock tokens provide economic rights equivalent to dividends and corporate action returns, with related returns reinvested into holdings.

Johann Kerbrat stated that physical redemption and voting rights are not yet available, and Robinhood is working to enable 1:1 share redemption and voting functionality for eligible stock token holders. These tokens are composable, allowing developers to build new products on top of them.

Additionally, he emphasized that stock tokens are not available to U.S. users and are also restricted in other jurisdictions such as Canada, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland.
