How Do Robinhood Stock Tokens Work?

According to Kerbrat, each Robinhood stock token is backed 1:1 by a real share. The securities are held in custody.

When issuing a new stock token, Robinhood simultaneously buys the corresponding real share. Token holders also receive the economic equivalent of dividends and the outcomes of corporate actions in the form of reinvestment into their assets.

At the same time, stock-token holders currently cannot redeem them directly for real shares and do not have voting rights.

Kerbrat said Robinhood is already working on a 1:1 redemption feature. Voting rights are also on the company’s roadmap.

According to him, Robinhood has the necessary infrastructure to roll out this functionality. In particular, the company runs the Say by Robinhood platform, which allows investors to take part in votes and other corporate processes.

Kerbrat also emphasized the technological composability of stock tokens. According to him, developers can use them as a foundation to build new products and services. The Robinhood representative expects the number of such solutions to grow as stock tokens become more widely adopted.

He also said tokenization could expand access to US investment assets. According to him, billions of people worldwide currently do not have access to the US stock market, while stock tokens allow eligible customers to access such assets using a smartphone and an internet connection.

As a reminder, earlier the CEO of Robinhood spoke out against issuers’ right to block the tokenization of shares.
