Binance Exchange Launches bStocks Tokenized Securities: 1:1 Backing and 24/7 Trading

Published

5 months ago

on

ABU DHABI, UAE, June 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ —  Binance Exchange has announced the admission to trading of bStocks, fully-backed tokenized securities representing select U.S. stocks issued by BTech Holdings Limited, a Binance group affiliate (“Issuer”). Eligible users can trade bStocks 24/7 and hold on Binance, self-custody them through BNB Chain-compatible wallets, and use them across supported DeFi applications.

At launch, the first bStocks listings will be Circle Internet Group (CRCLB/USDT), Micron Technology (MUB/USDT), NVIDIA (NVDAB/USDT), Sandisk (SNDKB/USDT), and Tesla (TSLAB/USDT). SpaceX (SPCXB/USDT) is planned for trading, pending SpaceX’s public listing on Nasdaq, with additional bStocks admission for trading on Binance Exchange to be announced progressively.

First previewed in Binance‘s recent announcement introducing U.S. equities trading, bStocks combines traditional investing with the flexibility of on-chain transferability. The launch also advances Binance‘s mission to democratize access to financial opportunities across asset classes and market stages — from private-market exposure through Pre-IPO perpetuals, to public equities, to tokenized real-world assets.

Users can convert between supported underlying equities (purchased through Binance‘s broker-dealer entity Nest Trading Limited) and bStocks at a 1:1 ratio with zero conversion fees. With fractional shares starting from as little as $5, bStocks makes investing more accessible.

The launch of bStocks follows regulatory approval of the Issuer’s prospectuses by the ADGM’s Financial Services Regulatory Authority. bStocks are designed as a Certificate over select U.S. stocks and ETFs. Each bStock is backed 1:1 by a corresponding underlying share held with a regulated custodian.

“Early demand for stocks trading on Binance shows that users want more flexible ways to access traditional markets,” said Richard Teng, co-CEO of Binance. “bStocks are the next step in that evolution, bringing real-world assets on-chain while giving users greater portability and self-custody. As tokenization gains momentum, Binance is helping bridge traditional finance and crypto infrastructure in a way that is simple, secure, and user-driven.”

As standard BEP-20 tokens on BNB Chain, bStocks are compatible with wallets and on-chain applications across the ecosystem, with planned integrations to be announced progressively.

Corporate actions such as stock splits and dividend-related adjustments are processed automatically, helping users maintain continuous exposure without requiring manual action.

Binance is offering zero maker fees for the initial bStocks trading pairs for a limited time, subject to applicable terms and conditions.

Disclaimer: bStocks Tokenized Securities are classified as Certificates representing certain Financial Instruments (paragraph 92, Schedule 1 to FSMR). bStocks are not stocks or shares and bStocks do not allow holders to directly own a share or stock in the underlying listed company. bStocks do not represent any affiliation with the underlying asset’s issuer.  bStocks are offered through an Approved Prospectus in the ADGM and are not offered in any other jurisdiction.

California Supreme Court to Decide Whether Insurers Can Hide Illegal Overcharges Behind Approved Rates, Says Consumer Watchdog

Ruling Will Impact Millions of State Consumers

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The California Supreme Court will decide whether consumers can sue insurance companies for overcharges that are illegal under Proposition 103, the insurance reform enacted by the voters 38 years ago.

The case before the court concerns a class action lawsuit brought by enlisted policyholders who are good drivers. They allege that USAA, a military insurer, charged them a higher price for auto insurance than it charged officers. Proposition 103 mandates a 20% Good Driver Discount for qualified drivers and state law requires an insurance company to offer good drivers the lowest rate available, regardless of military rank.

Proposition 103 authorizes consumers to challenge violations like that in court. However, some courts have ruled that those lawsuits cannot be brought if the insurance company can argue that the Insurance Commissioner approved the rates being charged.

About 200,000 enlisted USAA customers were overcharged. However, the Supreme Court’s decision will ultimately affect millions of Californians who buy insurance for their autos, homes and businesses.

Ninth Circuit Asks California Supreme Court to Address Pocketbook Issues

The case began in federal court in San Diego, the home of many people in military service. The United States District Court for the Southern District of California ruled that after the passage of Proposition 103, the California legislature passed a bill exempting companies that only insured military personnel from the application of Proposition 103’s protections for good drivers. The plaintiffs appealed to the Ninth Circuit, pointing out that under California’s Constitution the Legislature cannot undermine laws passed by the voters through a ballot initiative.

Before the 9th Circuit, USAA made a second argument, which had been rejected by the District Court: that other state insurance laws shield insurance companies from consumer lawsuits seeking refunds, notwithstanding Proposition 103. Plaintiffs noted that Proposition 103 specifically authorizes lawsuits under the state’s consumer protection laws.

Noting that California courts have adopted conflicting interpretations of Proposition 103, the Ninth Circuit of the United States Court of Appeal then asked California’s Supreme Court to decide these issues of state law.

Representing the enlisted military in the litigation are Consumer Watchdog, the California based non-profit that defends and enforces Proposition 103; Mehri & Skalet, a Washington, D.C.-based law firm specializing in class actions and complex litigation; Mason & Perry LLP, a class action and complex litigation firm also based in D.C., Matthew Seligman, of Grayhawk Law, [more], is leading the plaintiffs’ team before the Supreme Court.

The case is Coleman v. United Services Automobile Association, No. S298496. Review the complaint in the lawsuit. The Ninth Circuit’s certification to the California Supreme Court is available here. (Coleman v. United Services Automobile Ass’n, No. 25-793, slip op. at 3–15 (9th Cir. Sept. 10, 2026)).

Consumer Watchdog is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that advocates for taxpayer and consumer interests, with a particular focus on insurance, health care, privacy, energy, and corporate accountability. Consumer Watchdog represents consumers in proceedings enforcing Proposition 103’s protections.
