What happened: Dinari, a San Mateo startup founded by Stripe and Apple alums, announced it is putting the entire S&P 500 on the blockchain and offering tokenized stocks to U.S. investors through a partnership with Circle. Why it matters: The model replaces the traditional brokerage stack with a wallet-based system, letting investors fund accounts instantly with USDC — opening the door to faster settlement and trading beyond regular market hours. Key takeaway: CEO Gabriel Otte believes the token itself will eventually become the trusted ledger of the stock, fundamentally changing what it means to "own" shares.
