The post 5 Altcoins Stand to Gain From Tokenized Stocks, Grayscale Says appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Grayscale has named five blockchains best positioned to gain as tokenized stocks push deeper into traditional finance. The asset manager pointed to Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Avalanche (AVAX), BNB Chain, and Canton Network. A new research note frames tokenized equities as one of the clearest signs of blockchain entering mainstream markets. Grayscale sees three models driving that shift, and each rewards a different set of networks. Three Models Moving Tokenized Stocks Onchain Grayscale head of research Zach Pandl laid out the three phases in the note. The first is the wrapper model, where a token represents shares held inside a special purpose vehicle. That structure holds more than 70% of tokenized stock value today. These wrapped tokens give holders price exposure rather than direct ownership. They appeal to retail traders because they fit decentralized finance and trade ar

The post Dinari x tZERO: Beyond Issuance for Tokenized Equities? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Tokenized stocks have lingered in the demo stage for years. Slick pilots, thin liquidity, and lots of caveats. The Dinari and tZERO tie-up aims to change the script by wiring a full stack for broker-dealers, not just a mint button. The promise is ambitious: regulated rails that run 24/7, native fractional trades, stablecoin settlement, and corporate actions that don’t fall apart once a token leaves the lab.

But the middle mile — settlement, dividends, custody, and compliance — will decide everything. Point Details Partnership scope Dinari and tZERO plan a regulated, end-to-end framework for broker-dealers to offer tokenized U.S. equities, per a July 8, 2026 release (tZERO (press releas

The post Robinhood Chain scams are already costing users dearly appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Robinhood (Nasdaq:HOOD) launched the public mainnet of its new blockchain on July 1, and unfortunately, tons of people are already losing money trading its coins. Bad actors are using a variety of scam contracts, memecoin rug-pulls, phishing links, and garden variety theft, leading to complaints of loss flooding onto social media. Relay Protocol warned about scam tokens on the new Robinhood Chain: “If you bought one, the funds you spent are unfortunately gone.” In this example, scam contracts are accepting a token swap, briefly crediting the buyer’s wallet yet immediately transferring the tokens back to the deployer’s wallet. In other words, users unwittingly purchased tokens for someone else. Another trader alleged that Robinhood Wallet’s default sell screen auto-populated a Robinhood Chain scam coin called USER. Unless someone modified that default, the position would vaporize. “$600
