Base’s 1:1-backed tokenized equities launch ‘imminent,’ Pollak says
Summary
Base is close to launching 1:1-backed tokenized equities, according to Jesse Pollak. In a post on X, he said Robinhood Chain got tokenized equities right in an EVM environment and that Base was behind on the feature. When asked about timing, he said the launch is “imminent” and should arrive “very soon.” The move fits Base’s broader shift away from social apps and toward financial use cases, including trading, payments, AI agents, and tokenized assets.
