Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said the core value of tokenized stocks lies in inclusive access rather than 24/7 trading. In a post on X, Armstrong acknowledged round-the-clock markets as beneficial but emphasized that broader participation and on-chain utility represent the true significance.
Armstrong pointed to billions of people worldwide who currently lack the ability to purchase stocks, arguing tokenization opens an investment channel for these underserved populations. He added that once assets exist on-chain, they unlock additional use cases such as earning higher yields for holders.
