PANews reported on November 19th that, according to Cryptopolitan, Robinhood announced a three-phase plan to enable DeFi app users to use tokenized stocks permissionlessly, leveraging Arbitrum Stylus for compatibility. The final phase will make stock tokens completely permissionless, allowing users to use them across various dApps. AJ Warner, Head of Strategy at Offchain Labs, stated that Robinhood is laying the foundation for the transition of traditional finance to a permissionless ecosystem. The recent launch of tokenized stocks in Europe is the first step, covering approximately 800 publicly traded securities, with plans to expand into private equity. Currently in Phase One, EU users can buy tokenized shares within the app, but cannot transfer them out; they are for in-app use only. Phase Two focuses on infrastructure, leveraging the acquired Bitstamp to enable 24/7 trading of stock tokens, breaking traditional trading time limitations. In Phase Three, users and DeFi protocols will be free to use permissionless tokens, such as buying Apple tokenized shares and using them as collateral. This marks a shift in retail investment methods, with tokenized shares becoming programmable modules in the open financial system; this phase represents a long-term strategic move.PANews reported on November 19th that, according to Cryptopolitan, Robinhood announced a three-phase plan to enable DeFi app users to use tokenized stocks permissionlessly, leveraging Arbitrum Stylus for compatibility.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
