🇺🇸 Dinari Gets SEC Approval – Blockchain-Based Stock Trading Begins
San Francisco startup Dinari has become the first to receive SEC approval as a broker-dealer for tokenized securities, allowing U.S. stocks to be traded on blockchain via dShares—tokens backed 1:1 by real stocks and ETFs.
Previously limited to non-U.S. users on Coinbase’s Base network, dShares will soon be available in the U.S. through fintech partners and exchanges. This opens the door to 24/7 stock trading, a major leap from traditional hours.
Why it matters:
– Lower costs: Smart contracts reduce middlemen
– Faster settlement: Instant blockchain transactions vs. T+2
– Around-the-clock trading
– Fractional ownership: Access to high-priced stocks with small capital
But watch out for risks:
– Limited liquidity in early stages
– Regulatory uncertainty across countries
– Security risks from blockchain hacks or bugs
– Challenges in linking with traditional systems
For short-term traders (like ScalpingX):
– 24/7 access enables news-based trades anytime
– Potential arbitrage between tokenized and traditional prices
– Low fees support high-frequency strategies
Still, caution is needed: this is a new market with limited data, and regulation may shift. Platform execution speed and stability must also be monitored.
Dinari's early entry gives it a head start, but competition is rising as Coinbase and Kraken eye similar approvals. If successful, this could reshape how global investors trade U.S. equities.
