Binance's trading arm Nest just listed 7000+ US stocks and ETFs. Been planning this since early '26 — their ADGM registration was in January.

Custody's handled by Alpaca, a mid-sized broker that closed Series D at ~$1.1B valuation in Jan '26. They've done tokenization work before with xStocks, Dinari, $ONDO, and Solana Foundation. Crypto OGs basically.

Now all the major on-chain DEXs and off-chain CEXs support US stocks and RWA trading. The altcoin-only era? Officially over.

Crypto's no longer trying to replace TradFi — it's become an alternative/innovation branch *within* it.

Next few years, maybe the goal is just... keeping up with the S&P 500. 📉
