The midterm elections and Jensen Huang's resignation as CEO have sent Binance into a slump, leaving group members silent again, back to the "garbage time" of waiting for opportunities. In hindsight, Binance's foray into the tokenized stock market was quite necessary; at least traders gained a simpler way to "trade US stocks." Looking at the data released by Binance's official Twitter account: bStocks' AUM (assets under management) has reached $1.5 billion. It took 125 days to go from zero to $1 billion, and only 20 days to reach $1.5 billion, accounting for 30% of the entire tokenized stock market (total size of approximately $4.8 billion), a very impressive growth rate. It's foreseeable that as the tokenized stock market grows larger, this segment will become one of Binance's core growth drivers, and may even bring the possibility of expanding its reach beyond its core market.
