Many people have this misconception! Actually, Binance's stock trading zone and bStocks are two different products! Kim @moonkimbinance explained this very thoroughly. Binance Stocks addresses the number of assets and U.S. stock liquidity, covering 7,000+ U.S. stocks and ETFs. During regular U.S. stock market hours, it directly connects to the liquidity of the traditional U.S. stock market. bStocks solves the issue of 24/7 trading by enabling 1:1 conversion, linking the liquidity of the traditional U.S. stock market with the crypto market. So you can see— Binance's real goal is to build a complete on-chain stock trading system, not just a single feature for listing stocks: the traditional market provides pricing and underlying liquidity, while the crypto market offers round-the-clock trading capabilities. The combination of these two products is what Binance sees as the complete solution.
