Token Hype: Not the Next USDC, Yet 🚀💰

In other words, the real challenge with tokenized stocks isn’t the technical details like trading hours or dividend mechanics but a financial one. Stablecoin issuers unlocked a revenue engine by investing reserve assets, something stock token providers can’t easily replicate. As a result, stablecoins have grown into a massive market exceeding $250 billion, whereas tokenized equities remain a niche experiment. The thesis here is debatable but clear: Stablecoins and stock tokens may share the same tokenization DNA, but only the former currently incentivizes issuers with a sustainable business model. Unless the “supply side” economics for stock tokens improve, their widespread adoption will lag. 🚧💸
