Gemini—one of the largest and most influential cryptocurrency exchanges, founded by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss—has made its arrival felt in the tokenized stock market. The exchange has partnered with Dinari, a pioneer in real-world asset tokenization. Together, they will offer customers in the European Union (EU) access to tokenized stocks. The announcement was made on Friday, Jun 27, 2025, at 9:56 p.m.

With this move, users in the EU can trade tokenized versions of traditional stocks directly on the Gemini platform. Tokenized stocks represent a fractional ownership in a company's stock, making it more accessible to a broader range of investors.

The engagement with Dinari… THAT has been the secret sauce. They have the operational infrastructure and internal expertise to turn real-world assets into digital tokens. This partnership facilitates adherence to complex regulations and safely custodizes the underlying assets.

Gemini has apparently overcome that disappointment by launching tokenized stocks in the EU. This strategic move leverages the increasing popularity of digital assets and DeFi. The EU market offers an attractive regulatory framework for these kinds of innovative financial products. With this move, Gemini has a good shot at courting a new breed of interested users over to their platform.

While our offering of tokenized stocks isn’t the first in the market, it has quite a few benefits. It lowers the barrier to entry for investors who may not be able to afford whole shares of certain companies. Tokenized assets provide for a more efficient and quicker trading experience. In fact, you can trade them 24/7, busting out of the chains of nine-to-five stock market days.

The collaboration between Gemini and Dinari represents a significant step in bridging the gap between traditional finance and the digital asset space. As more institutions get onboard with tokenization, we are likely to see tokenization level the playing field and boost the efficiency of our financial markets.
