#bstockscis "why can't my friend in the US just make an account and buy $NVDAB like everyone else?" — genuine question I got this week, so here's the actual answer instead of a shrug. 🇺🇸
bStocks are not available to US persons, and it isn't a soft rule enforced quietly after the fact. It's built into eligibility at the application layer, checked before the product ever opens up to you — same general approach Binance uses for other jurisdiction-gated features. 🔒
The short version:
✅ Available to eligible users in permitted jurisdictions
✅ Structured under ADGM-regulated entities in Abu Dhabi, via an Approved Prospectus
🚫 Not offered to US persons
🚫 Not a geoblock bolted on after launch — baked into the regulatory wrapper from day one
So no, it's not an oversight and nobody's being singled out — the entire structure was built around a jurisdiction that never included the US in the first place. 🧭
Did you already know this, or did today's post finally answer something you'd been quietly wondering about?
1️⃣ Knew already
2️⃣ Suspected but wasn't sure
3️⃣ Had no idea
4️⃣ Doesn't affect me either way
