Binance exceeds $1 billion in assets under management for its stock trading service within 30 days

Highlights since launch include:

· Assets under management exceeded $1 billion within 30 days of launch

· Recording a total trading volume exceeding US$3 billion since June 1, 2026

· Average daily flows reached 42 million US dollars

· The share of users from emerging markets reached about 73% of the total users.

One in every 7 visitors to a stock trading page on Binance registers a new account, with approximately 90% of these new users executing their first trade.

· The average partial orders reach 35% of stock trading volume, with the ability to participate in amounts starting from only 5 US dollars.

· About 71% of stock holdings were directed to the technology sector, of which nearly half, or 48%, went to semiconductors.

“The fact that assets under management exceeded $1 billion within 30 days reflects the real demand for access to stock markets,” said Shoneet Jan, Head of Trading and Exchanges at Binance. Most of the world’s population has always faced obstacles that limited their ability to invest in American stocks, and this service came to give hundreds of millions of people an opportunity that was not available to them before.”

Removing barriers to accessing stock markets

Binance’s stock trading service addresses this gap by providing access to US stocks and ETFs using stablecoins and BNB, without the need for a traditional brokerage account. About 73% of users belong to emerging markets, which are regions that did not previously receive adequate services from traditional brokerage companies. Meanwhile, fractional orders accounted for an average of 35% of stock trading volume, peaking at 72% on June 10 before stabilizing near 20%, with traders with smaller sizes showing a preference for flexible, fractional access to stocks. This reflects one of the main advantages of purchasing shares through Binance, which is removing the capital barrier associated with owning a full share, and enabling users to participate with amounts starting from just $5.

User behaviors indicate a deliberate investment approach, not speculation. Nearly 740 stocks and exchange-traded funds were traded out of more than 7,000 investment instruments available on the platform. About 71% of stock holdings were directed to the technology sector, 48% of which went to semiconductor companies, reflecting a clear interest in investing in sectors related to artificial intelligence. The technology sector recorded a trading volume approximately 23 times higher than the trading volumes in other sectors, which reflects the level of trust that Binance users attach to these investments. Investment distribution patterns are consistent with a user base that has investment awareness and manages its exposure to different sectors in a thoughtful manner, rather than random trading.

Future outlook for the markets

Crossing $1 billion in assets under management (AUM) on Binance within 30 days is an early indicator of a structural shift that goes beyond this product alone. Today, the number of financial brokerage accounts around the world does not exceed about 700 million, while digital currency trading platforms have succeeded in building a distribution structure that reaches hundreds of millions of users, especially in markets where the presence of traditional brokerage companies remains limited. Binance research predicts that by 2031, cryptocurrency trading platforms, as an investment class, may be able to direct $2 trillion of additional capital to global stock markets, attracting 300 million new investors to this asset class.

Current indicators support this vision. Based on current growth rates, Binance Research expects assets under management for the stock trading service on Binance to exceed $10 billion by the end of 2026, less than seven months after the launch of the service. This estimate is based on current growth trends and market conditions, and is not a guarantee of future performance, as actual results may differ materially. The next wave of participation in stock markets is unlikely to come as a result of the expansion of traditional brokerage firms. Rather, it is expected to be led by digital platforms that emerged from the crypto-asset sector, having already succeeded in addressing the challenge of reaching users, and are working today to expand their access to global financial markets.
