Overview of Last Week’s Crypto ETF Developments
Robinhood Tokenizes 500 U.S. Stocks and ETFs for EU Users
According to Cointelegraph, Robinhood has tokenized 500 U.S. stocks and ETFs for EU users on Arbitrum.
Data from Dune Analytics shows that Robinhood has tokenized 493 assets, with a total value exceeding $8.5 million. The cumulative minting amount has surpassed $19.3 million, but about $11.5 million in destruction activities offset this loss, indicating that the market is growing, but trading is active. Stocks account for nearly 70% of all deployed tokens, followed by exchange-traded funds (ETFs) at about 24%, while commodities, cryptocurrency ETFs, and U.S. Treasury allocations are less.
According to The Block, Florida legislators have opened the 2026 legislative session, proposing to include Bitcoin in the state’s financial toolset.
House Bill 183 submitted by the Florida House of Representatives would allow the state’s Chief Financial Officer to invest up to 10% of designated public funds (including general revenue funds, budget stabilization funds, and various trust funds) in “digital assets” and ETFs. If passed, the bill would also authorize the state management board to invest up to 10% of funds in the Florida Retirement System Trust Fund in digital assets. The bill defines digital assets to include Bitcoin, tokenized securities, and NFTs, and sets strict custody and control requirements. Assets can be held by the Chief Financial Officer, qualified custodians, or through ETFs registered with the SEC.
HB 183 positions Bitcoin as a potential store of value and inflation hedge for state funds, and would also allow Florida residents to use digital assets to pay specific taxes and fees. Currently, HB 183 is awaiting assignment and hearing in the House committee. If advanced, it will still require Senate approval and the Governor’s signature to become law.
