Backpack Launches First 24/7 Market for Real U.S. Equities

The crypto-native brokerage said the service uses genuine security entitlements and instant settlement as tokenized equity trading expands across blockchain markets.

  • On Friday, Backpack CEO Armani Ferrante announced the launch of 24/7 trading for real U.S. equities, allowing international investors to buy and sell securities around the clock on the crypto-native brokerage.
  • Serving users in over 150 countries, the platform addresses a fundamental gap in global market access by enabling investors to trade U.S. equities outside traditional Wall Street operating hours.
  • Initial listings feature Micron Technology, SanDisk, and SpaceX, with SanDisk's datacenter segment posting 645% year-over-year revenue growth as the company shifts toward high-value end markets.
  • Unlike synthetic derivatives offered on competing platforms, Backpack investors hold genuine security entitlements with full ownership, instant settlement, and funding via fiat or stablecoins.
  • Beyond direct equity trading, Backpack supports Solana-based tokenized versions of these assets, enabling wallet-to-wallet transfers and DeFi compatibility as market infrastructure moves toward continuous price discovery.
