Robinhood Engages with European Regulators on Tokenized Stocks

By: theblockbeats.news|2025/07/08 15:06:50

BlockBeats News, July 8th, according to Bloomberg, Robinhood Markets Inc. CEO Vlad Tenev stated that the company is in communication with regulators regarding its tokenized stock product launched in Europe, which has previously sparked criticism from multiple companies including OpenAI.


The California-based company announced last week that retail investors in the European Union can now trade blockchain tokens representing U.S. stocks through its app. This launch also included tokens for privately held companies like OpenAI. However, OpenAI, led by Sam Altman, later reminded traders that these "tokens" do not represent equity in the company.


The brokerage is facing inquiries from regulators, including the Bank of Lithuania, regarding the structure of these tokens and whether they blur the line between actual equity and derivatives. The Bank of Lithuania has confirmed reaching out to Robinhood for further details.
