Kraken expands into tokenized US IPO access through xStocks
Kraken is expanding its services to allow retail investors access to US IPOs through tokenized equity allocations. The new xStocks framework enables eligible users to submit interest in upcoming IPOs before they go public. This initiative aims to democratize access to IPO pricing, which has traditionally favored institutional investors.
- ▪Kraken's xStocks framework will allow retail investors to participate in US IPOs at the offering price.
- ▪Eligible customers can submit non-binding offers before a company goes public.
- ▪The tokenized shares will be backed 1:1 by the underlying shares held in custody by a regulated entity.
