Robinhood CEO Predicts Tokenized Securities Will Boost US Global Financial Dominance NEW YORK, May 29, 2025 — Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev recently predicted that tokenized securities will significantly benefit U.S. companies' global standing. In an interview with CNBC, Tenev stated that tokenized securities "will be the default way to gain exposure to U.S. stocks" and other U.S. assets. This, he believes, will simplify access to investment opportunities for global investors and fuel capital formation for new ventures. Tenev elaborated, "If I'm an entrepreneur starting a company, and I could plug into a global network of capital to raise money for my venture, I would make use of that." He envisions a future where tokenization creates "an explosion of new ventures being created." This innovative approach to finance, according to Tenev, could solidify the U.S.'s position in the global market. The full interview is available on CNBC's social media channels. The interview highlights the potential transformative effects of tokenized securities on the global financial landscape and the competitive advantage it could offer U.S. businesses.
