Coinbase Global Inc. is planning to expand its offerings in the U.S. market by introducing tokenized securities, a move spurred by evolving regulatory dynamics under the Trump administration. CEO Brian Armstrong, speaking at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media, and Telecom Conference, expressed optimism about reengaging with the SEC's task force to bring security tokens and international products into the U.S. market. The company aims to leverage blockchain technology to facilitate the trading of traditional financial instruments such as stocks and bonds. The initiative comes in the wake of Coinbase's recent legal victory against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which dismissed allegations that the firm operated as an unregistered securities exchange. This development has been seen as a positive shift in the regulatory landscape, potentially opening doors for more blockchain-based financial products. Countries like Switzerland and Singapore have established frameworks to support tokenized securities, while Coinbase has backed industry-focused lobbying efforts and Super PAC funding to support pro-crypto candidates. In parallel, Wyoming billionaire Reid Rasner is in discussions with the Trump administration regarding his $47.45 billion bid to purchase TikTok from ByteDance. Rasner's proposal includes plans to offer paid membership levels to users, emphasizing national security considerations in the deal. Meanwhile, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian has joined billionaire Frank McCourt's consortium, 'The People's Bid for TikTok,' as a strategic adviser. Coinbase's revenue from trading, stablecoins, and staking exceeded $700 million in 2024, with plans to scale additional financial services.
