- Gemini launched tokenized Strategy shares in Europe, offering 24/7 trading and blockchain-based access via the Arbitrum network.
- The service is fully backed by real shares and complies with EU regulations through Dinari and Malta-based licensing.
Recently, American crypto exchange Gemini has partnered with Dinari to launch tokenized stock trading for EU users. The first product they released to the public is not just any stock—it is Strategy (MSTR), a company known as the king of Bitcoin due to its large holdings.
Gemini Kicks Off EU Rollout of Tokenized Stocks with MSTR
Through this partnership, users in Europe can now buy tokenized Strategy shares, called dShares™, fractionally. This means that you don’t have to wait for a big salary to try out stocks that are usually only accessible through official brokers. These tokens can also be traded 24 hours non-stop on the Arbitrum network.
Tokenized stocks have arrived.

Not only that, transactions are carried out directly on the blockchain, without having to convert crypto assets to fiat first. The old way through banks that takes time is arguably increasingly irrelevant.
Furthermore, this tokenization is fully supported by 1:1 physical shares and operated by Dinari which is registered as a transfer agent with the SEC.
On the other hand, Gemini is launching its services through an entity registered under the supervision of the Malta Financial Services Authority, ensuring that everything is in accordance with EU regulations. The plan is, this is just the beginning. In the near future, Gemini will open access to more tokenized stocks and ETFs.
After the SEC Backed Off, Focus Shifts to Public Listings
Gemini’s move can be said as a statement: “We’re not done yet.” Especially considering that last February, CNF reported that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) finally closed its investigation into Gemini after 699 days. No legal action was taken. A moment that was certainly a relief, but also left a feeling of anger.
Gemini’s co-founder, Cameron Winklevoss, even suggested that government agencies that conduct investigations without clear grounds must return three times the legal costs incurred by the party being investigated. A proposal that might make many crypto startups applaud in their hearts.
However, that doesn’t mean Gemini is just playing it safe. In March, the company secretly filed IPO documents in the US. For this process, they collaborated with two big names: Goldman Sachs and Citigroup. It seems that they are preparing to set foot on the public stage.
Unfortunately, not all of Gemini’s steps went smoothly. The XRP community still remembers the old conflict with their co-founder, Tyler Winklevoss. Tensions flared up again after Tyler promoted the Gemini Credit Card directly to the XRP community.
Many have not forgotten Tyler’s statements in 2020, in which he had offensively referred to XRP and criticized the inclusion of XRP in the strategic crypto reserve by the US government. The response from the community was swift, and quite scathing.
Despite the past conflict, Gemini seems to have a big agenda. The launch of this tokenized stock is not only about market expansion, but also opening up opportunities for global investors to access US stocks in a more flexible and modern way.
