More Than 70% of U.S. Tokenized Stock Trading Occurs Outside Regular Market Hours
Data from Kaiko reveals that over 70% of trading volume for tokenized U.S. equity-based stocks on Uniswap occurred outside of standard U.S. market hours during September. Nearly half of this activity took place while traditional stock exchanges were completely closed, highlighting a shift toward 24/7 market accessibility. Analysis of 25 significant price swings indicates that weekend movements in these tokenized assets frequently foreshadowed the direction of share prices at the subsequent Monday market open. This correlation suggests that tokenized stocks are increasingly serving as a predictive indicator for traditional equity performance. Furthermore, the Robinhood Chain has emerged as a dominant network, currently surpassing most other blockchains in tokenized stock trading volume. These findings underscore the growing integration of blockchain-based assets into the broader financial ecosystem. The ability to trade equities outside of traditional hours provides investors with new tools for price discovery and risk management. This trend marks a significant evolution in how market participants interact with equity-linked products through decentralized infrastructure.
