For most people, buying a US stock is simple. For millions across Central Asia, Latin America, Africa and other parts of the world, it can still mean high barriers, limited access and a long process to open a brokerage account.
Tokenized equities could change that.
In this episode of WRAP UP, I sit down with Mark Greenberg, Chief Commercial Officer of Kraken/Payward, to discuss whether tokenized stocks can give more people access to global markets, starting with as little as $5 or $10.
We talk about what Kraken has learned from building XStocks, which has processed almost $40 billion in volume, and why the real opportunity is not only bringing stocks onchain. It is making access to equities possible for people who have been excluded from global capital markets for years.
Mark also explains why stablecoins are becoming more than a trading tool. We discuss dollar yield, cross-border B2B payments, the slow progress of stablecoin remittances and why moving money and trading assets are increasingly part of the same infrastructure problem.
We also discuss:
- Why trading and payments are becoming one connected infrastructure problem
- How XStocks is expanding access to tokenized equities, including for people in markets with limited brokerage access
- Why stablecoin yield, B2B cross-border payments and remittances matter today
- What it will take for AI agents to safely transact with wallets, cards and payment rails
- Why consumer crypto is far from dead
- The regulatory clarity crypto companies need to build for the long term
