Kraken Opens U.S. IPO Pricing to Global Retail Investors via xStocks Platform

The structure bypasses the traditional underwriter allocation chain, which has historically funneled IPO-price access to institutional accounts and high-value brokerage clients, leaving retail buyers to enter on the open market after the first-day pop has already occurred. Note that xStocks tokens are not available to U.S. persons directly. U.S.-based access is handled separately through Alpaca Securities and ClickIPO via Kraken Securities, a conventional equities channel. Platforms that compete on IPO allocation as a client relationship benefit, including prime brokers, full-service retail brokers, and exchange operators that monetize IPO order flow, face a new low-friction alternative being built on public blockchain rails. If xStocks scales, it compresses one of the last structural advantages that traditional intermediaries hold over retail accounts in U.S. capital markets access.GRAYSCALE HYPERLIQUID ETF:Grayscale Investments launched the Grayscale Hyperliquid Staking ETF on Nasdaq today with a 0.29% gross fee, the lowest among U.S. hyperliquidETFs, undercutting 21Shares at 0.30% and Bitwise at 0.34%, according to a. The fund offers exposure to hyperliquid, the native token of the Hyperliquid decentralized derivatives network, extending the altcoin ETP product cycle that has accelerated since spot bitcoin and ether fund approvals. Fee compression in altcoin ETPs is tracking the same trajectory seen in bitcoin and ether wrappers. Grayscale pricing below 21Shares by a single basis point and below Bitwise by five on launch day signals that shelf-space competition among crypto ETP issuers has moved well beyond the flagship products.MINING-TO-AI INFRASTRUCTURE:Digi Power Xdisclosed in a regulatory filing, a $35M commitment to purchase NVIDIAVera Rubin next-generation AI systems for its NeoCloudz GPU cloud platform, with CFO Paul Ciullo disclosing approximately $150M in cash and cash equivalents as of today, per the company's.

The $150M cash balance provides execution runway without near-term dilution risk, a distinction from peers still funding AI capital expenditures through equity issuance.VERSABANK EARNINGS AND REORGANIZATION:VersaBankreported Q2 revenue of $38.3M, up 27% vs. last year, and adjusted core net income of $12.4M, up 45% vs. last year, driven by U.S. secured receivable purchase loan growth, according to a. The company simultaneously filed a Form S-4 registration statement with the SEC to support a proposed reorganization into a standard U.S. bank holding company structure, per a separate, a move that deepens its alignment with U.S. regulatory frameworks as the company develops its Digital Deposit Receipt stablecoin technology. The combination of a revenue beat and a structural reorg filing on the same day makes VersaBank a name to watch for investors monitoring the convergence of chartered banking and digital settlement infrastructure.CUSTODY AND PAYMENT RAILS:BitGo Holdingswas named the exclusive OCC-regulated Crypto-as-a-Service and qualified custody provider for Liquid Mercury, with Lightning Network bitcoin payment rails integrated across all Liquid Mercury products effective immediately, according to a. The OCC-regulated custody designation removes a key compliance barrier for corporate treasury and fund accounts seeking federally supervised digital asset exposure through Liquid Mercury's platform.OwlTing Groupdisclosed in a regulatory filing that it obtained a Money Transmitter License from the State of Ohio, extending OwlPay's regulated settlement coverage to 42 U.S. states, as shown in this.

"Whether you're new to crypto and looking for a firm you know and trust, or you already own digital assets, our goal is to be the destination of choice for retail investors who want to incorporate digital assets into their portfolios with confidence."ETORO ENTERS AGREEMENT TO ACQUIRE ZENGA:eToroannounced Wednesday that it has entered intoa self-custodial crypto wallet provider, in a move that deepens eToro's digital asset capabilities and accelerates its strategy of connecting traditional finance with on-chain infrastructure and the crypto native economy. The acquisition brings together eToro's global multi-asset platform and distribution with Zengo's non-custodial wallet technology, supporting Zengo's next phase of growth while expanding eToro's digital asset capabilities. The transaction strengthens eToro's ability to support evolving digital asset use cases, including tokenized assets and emerging decentralized trading models such as prediction markets and perpetuals, as these markets develop.Yoni Assia, CEO, said, "We believe the future of finance will be increasingly digital, decentralized and user-controlled, with self-custody playing an important role in that evolution. Zengo has built an innovative and secure wallet experience, and this acquisition will enable us to accelerate its growth while continuing to provide users with choice in how they access digital assets. As we often say, crypto downtimes are the time to build and this acquisition reflects that long-term approach. At the same time, we continue to demonstrate the strength of our diversified business model. We've seen strong capital market activity so far this year, with commodity trading accounting for 60% of trading commissions by asset class in Q1 2026, with commodities trading volume nearly 4x higher year over year. This growth was driven by shifting global macro dynamics, our standing as a top-tier global multi-asset platform, and our strategic expansion of 24/7 trading, including gold and oil."On Thursday, eToro announced the relaunch of Tori, its AI investing companion, introducing three upgrades: persistent memory, real-time market sentiment from X powered by Grok 4.2, and the ability to create and manage user-defined AI-driven Agent Portfolios entirely through conversation.eToro also announced Tuesday the launch of the eToro App Store, a marketplace enabling investors and developers to build, share and access trading and analytics applications directly within the eToro platform.SEC APPROVES PLAN TO REMOVE DAY TRADING LIMITS:The Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday approved changes to the pattern day trading rule, shifting from a fixed $25,000 threshold for small investors to risk-based margin requirements applied to all traders. Public feedback "overwhelmingly supported" the plan, which includes the "elimination of the $25,000 minimum equity requirements and definition of pattern day trader," SEC Assistant Secretary Sherry Haywood wrote in an order.Goldman Sachs noted the change and pointed out that as this likely reduces margin requirements for traders, which would allow more smaller-sized accounts to trade more actively, this could drive increased retail trading volumes in equities, which could benefit brokers under coverage, including Buy-rated Robinhoodand Interactive Brokersand Neutral-rated eToro. This could be particularly true for the former, which has smaller average account sizes and mostly U.S. exposure, whereas Interactive Brokers has larger average accounts, and eToro is predominantly non-U.S. exposed.Meanwhile, BernsteinThe firm has an Outperform rating on the name with a $130 price target. The upside will be driven by a recovery in crypto markets and "breakout" revenue growth in prediction markets, the analyst said. Bernstein believes a "weak" Q1 report is already priced into Robinhood shares. The market will be forward looking as trading volumes recover Q2 onwards, contended the firm.Additionally, Truist lowered the firm's price target on Robinhood to $100 from $120 and kept a Buy rating on the shares. The firm updated its Robinhood model to incorporate trading data from February and March ahead of Q1 earnings. While shares have been under pressure year-to-date with revenue headwinds from crypto prices and high-beta equity volatility, shares have consolidated in recent months around $70, which the firm views as an attractive entry point for a platform poised to organically grow assets 20%+ annually for the next three years, the analyst said.CRYPTO COMPANIES SEEK MYTHOS ACCESS:Major crypto exchanges and custodians including Coinbaseand Binance are racing to prepare for powerful AI models like Anthropic's Mythos, which the AI company says could be dangerously good at finding and exploiting software vulnerabilities, The Information's Yueqi Yang reported Tuesday. Coinbase has been in "close communication" with Anthropic about Mythos, "a highly restricted model not available to the public," Coinbase Chief Security Officer Philip Martin said. "Mythos, and future models like it, will enable even deeper testing of software and systems at scale. This will accelerate digital threats as well as digital defense."Meanwhile, Piper Sandler raised the firm's price target on Coinbaseon the shares. Heading into Q1 earnings, the firm expects management teams to strike a positive tone on the outlook for trading volumes, especially in futures as the Iran War continues to impact global energy and commodities markets. Piper is somewhat cautious on the tough year-over-year comparisons facing exchanges in Q2, but a continuation of the Iran War is a strong counter.NORTHERN TRUST, DIGITAL ASSET PARTNER FOR CUSTODY CAPABILITIES:Northern Trustannounced Thursday it hasto support the development of custody capabilities for tokenized financial assets. This integration will advance Northern Trust's broader digital asset strategy as the firm continues to evolve its asset servicing model in response to changing market structures. As part of this agreement, Northern Trust will integrate with Canton Network's infrastructure to develop and deploy applications that bridge digital and traditional markets, supporting institutional grade custody and asset servicing workflows for network participants. This move also creates opportunities with other regulated partners and financial services utilities that provide services for digitally issued assets. Northern Trust will utilize its digital assets platform to support custody and asset servicing for tokenized assets issued or transacted on the network."As institutional adoption of digital assets progresses, clients are looking for custody and servicing models that align with established market standards and regulatory expectations," said Guy Gibson, co‑president, Asset Servicing and head of Institutional Banking and Markets.
