CEO của AMC chỉ trích cổ phiếu token của Robinhood, phủ nhận bất kỳ sự liên kết nào

The Huoxing Finance report states that Adam Aron, CEO of AMC Theatres, posted on X on Thursday condemning Robinhood’s AMC stock token, asserting that AMC has no connection to the product and does not endorse it in any way. Aron stated that Robinhood is clearly advancing a plan involving “tokenized real-world assets (including stock tokens)” related to AMC, calling the practice “despicable” and “outrageous,” and announced that AMC will request external securities legal counsel to investigate the matter. Robinhood’s stock tokens are derivatives that provide holders with economic exposure to U.S. stocks but do not confer ownership of the underlying shares. Other tokenization models include custodians holding traditional stocks and issuing tokens as endorsements, or issuers authorizing the direct on-chain registration of registered shares. This conflict comes at a time when tokenized stocks are attracting attention from crypto exchanges, brokerages, and Wall Street institutions, as blockchain infrastructure enables 24/7 trading, faster settlement, and broader distribution. Robinhood has made tokenization central to its crypto expansion, launching tokens tracking hundreds of U.S. stocks and ETFs last year, and is currently building its own blockchain to support tokenized assets. Previously, OpenAI also publicly denied any association with Robinhood’s token related to it, stating that it does not represent OpenAI equity and that OpenAI has not collaborated with or endorsed Robinhood. AMC’s opposition brings this controversy to the level of publicly traded companies.
