bStocks added $565.9M in tokenized-equity value in seven weeks. The certificates' next test: sustained, compliant growth beyond the launch surge.
Binance said Aug. 6 that bStocks added $565.9 million in outstanding tokenized-equity value within seven weeks of its June 11 launch, a gain of more than 5,000%. The company presented the growth as support for its financial-super-app strategy: an always-on account that holds direct stocks and tokenized securities alongside perpetual futures on traditional equity indices.
bStocks represented as much as 27% of global tokenized-equity capitalization, Binance said. During weekend trading, when traditional exchanges are closed, the product priced in a median 92% of the following Monday's stock-price gap.
TradFi perpetuals, the adjacent product format, took a 74% share of the global ETF-perpetual market across 146 pairs, Binance said. The company called the two sets of numbers evidence that demand spans multiple equity-linked formats rather than one isolated launch. RWA perpetuals, the broader asset-backed category, generated $61.7 billion in seven-day volume across Binance and Hyperliquid, reaching 99.2% of Bitcoin perpetual turnover in the measured period.
Crypto Economy, which reported the figures, said the next test is whether the early scale develops into sustained, compliant cross-product activity.
Binance also assisted investigators at Gujarat CID Crime's Cyber Centre of Excellence in Gandhinagar with an ongoing investigation into suspected cyber-enabled fraud; the investigators traced about $23.96 million in alleged flows.
The company added 10 new bStocks listings Aug. 5 at 12:00 UTC, including Netflix. ASML Holding (ASML) joined the lineup; the stock carries an Alpha Score of 73 in AlphaScala's model, a Moderate rating.
Tokenized-equity formats have been drawing exchange attention this year, and the tokenized QQQ effort is part of that run.
Most users come from emerging markets; Binance put the share at more than 90% among bStocks and direct-stock customers. Gen Z accounts for nearly 44% of the company's equity users.
