Tokenized stock trading on Solana and BNB Chain shifts outside US market hours
Most tokenised equity trading on Solana, BNB Chain and Base now happens outside the regular US session, as the sector's value nears $3.3bn and the SEC opens a route for onchain US stocks.
Why it matters: The data shows round-the-clock access, not just daytime mirroring, is driving tokenised equity volumes as US regulators open the door to onchain listed stocks.
Key points
- More than 70% of tokenised stock volume on BNB Chain occurs outside the 9:30 am to 4 pm Eastern session, with 63% on Solana and nearly 60% on Base, per Blockworks data cited by The Kobeissi Letter.
- Tokenized stock value rose 15% over 30 days to nearly $3.3bn, according to RWA.xyz, concentrated among issuers including Ondo Global Markets, xStocks and bStocks.
Tokenized stock trading on Solana and BNB Chain is mostly happening outside US market hours, according to Cointelegraph.
The pattern suggests investors use these products to trade when US exchanges are shut, rather than mirroring regular-hours activity.
The activity comes as tokenised stock values rose 15% over the past 30 days to nearly $3.3bn, per RWA.xyz.
US regulators are also moving. Commissioner Mark Uyeda said venues must publish transaction data in dollars, including prices, sizes, timestamps and daily volumes, plus liquidity pool addresses and balances.
What to watch: The SEC's innovation exemption lets qualifying venues trade tokenised US-listed stocks once they meet its trading and disclosure requirements.
