Crypto Exchange FTX Plans to Launch Support for Trading Tokenized Nasdaq Stocks

On Thursday (October 29), spot and derivatives exchange FTX confirmed that it plans to launch next week a way to trade the tokenized form of select U.S. stocks against cryptoassets (including Bitcoin and certain stablecoins).

Tokenization means that it will be possible to buy fractions of popular U.S. stoocks such as Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL) — just like you can with platforms such as Robinhood (in the U.S.) and Revolut (in Europe) — with one major difference: you will be able to find trade these against not fiat currencies, but cryptocurrencies.

FTX Co-Founder and CEO Sam Bankman-Fried told Coindesk:

These fractional stock products reflect the reality that today’s traders are industry and sector spanning and want trading opportunities that fully match their interests and mindset.

Circle Co-Founder and CEO Buys Bitcoin Using His PayPal Account

Circle Co-Founder and CEO Jeremy Allaire has become one of the first people in the crypto community to buy BTC using his PayPal account. Allaire posted a tweet that shows he was able to buy $100 in Bitcoin using PayPal’s recently-announced service that lets PayPal customers “buy, hold and sell cryptocurrency directly from their PayPal account.”

Allaire seems delighted with the service and calls it a “great milestone” for the crypto market. When one XRP fan pointed out that Allaire won’t be able to transfer out his newly-purchased BTC to a hardware crypto wallet (such as those from Ledger), Allaire tweeted in reply “Crawl walk run. They will get there. Baby steps.”
