Binance, a leading name in cryptocurrency trading, has created significant buzz with its latest product that facilitates trading of US stocks outside the United States. Within the first nine days of its launch, the platform reported an extraordinary average daily trading volume of $143 million. This achievement not only outperformed previous records in the tokenized stock spot market but also indicated strong demand from global investors.

Why Has Trading Volume Surged?

This new trading service offers users outside the US the opportunity to transact in more than 7,000 US stocks and ETFs. Traders benefit from zero commission trades and around-the-clock market access five days a week. Launched on June 1, 2026, in conjunction with broker Alpaca and under the regulatory umbrella of ADGM, this platform has rapidly gained attention around the world.

In just nine days, the trading volume on this platform surpassed a staggering $1 billion. According to data, the platform attracted around 30,700 daily active investors, showcasing the immediate popularity and acceptance of this service.

CoinDesk Research highlighted that Binance’s US stocks product achieved an average daily trading volume of about $143 million within nine days, clearly surpassing the peak weekday spot market volumes recorded in tokenized stock trading.

Will Crypto Remain at the Forefront?

Despite the promising start of stock trading, Binance remains predominantly a crypto powerhouse. The exchange’s total daily trading volume from its cryptocurrency markets is approximately $52 billion, outpacing the new stock platform by a large margin, showing distinct market scale differences.

The range of offerings on Binance is broader, with the stock trading platform comprising over 7,000 shares and ETFs, whereas tokenized equities are limited to about 200 tokens across other platforms.

While tokenized stocks have been in existence, allowing investors to access US equities via crypto platforms, Binance’s latest provision offers a full-scale entry into mainstream trading. Additionally, the growing interest in equity-linked perpetual futures reflects an uptick in cross-asset investment opportunities.

• Daily trading volume reached $143 million.• Over $1 billion traded in nine days.• Spike in investor interest, peaking at 30,700 daily active users.• Significant traction in semiconductor and AI stocks.

The appeal of Binance’s regular stock offerings tends towards popular technology sectors, notably semiconductor and AI hardware companies. Notably, semiconductor stocks captured six of the top 10 positions among traded stocks during early operations, with one company, Marvell, representing 15% of the total volume. Meanwhile, tokenized platforms continue to cater mainly to crypto-focused company stocks, illustrating divergent investor interests in the burgeoning digital securities industry.
