Coinbase Launches Tokenized Stocks on Base | Jesse Pollak

The stock market is coming onchain. Jesse Pollak joins David to unpack Coinbase Tokenized Stocks, a new push to bring one-to-one equities onto Base with 24/7 trading, dividends, governance rights and permissionless onchain composability. They explore what happens when stocks plug directly into DeFi, why borrowing and lending may matter more than trading itself, how neobanks could evolve into global brokerages, and Jesse’s bigger vision for Base as the financial backend for stocks, payments, credit and local currencies around the world. --- 📣SPOTIFY PREMIUM RSS FEED | USE CODE: SPOTIFY24 https://bankless.cc/spotify-premium --- BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 🔓NEAR | TRADE CONFIDENTIALLY, GET 20% BACK https://bankless.cc/near-pod 🔑BITKEY | GET 10% OFF USE CODE: BANKLESS | #bitkeypartner https://bankless.cc/bitkey 📊BITGET | TOKENIZED STOCKS 2.0 https://bankless.cc/bitget-stocks 🎯THE DEFI REPORT | ONCHAIN INSIGHTS https://thedefireport.io/bankless 👑BANKLESS CONTENT MCP https://www.bankless.com/premium --- TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Coinbase Brings Tokenized Stocks to Base 5:17 Permissionless Stocks and the First Assets Going Live 10:11 Plugging Stocks Into Base DeFi 17:52 From Tokenized Stocks to Neo Brokerages 23:32 Crypto as a Global Financial System 27:20 What Builders Can Create With Onchain Stocks 32:04 Bringing Every Currency Onchain 42:47 Jesse’s Role at Base and the Everything Exchange 49:50 Tokenized Stocks Beyond Base --- RESOURCES Jesse Pollak https://x.com/jessepollak --- Not financial or tax advice.
