Base co-founder Jesse Pollak said Robinhood Chain got one thing right by bringing tokenized stocks into an EVM environment, while acknowledging that Base had fallen behind in the segment. He said Base is now preparing to address that gap through a partnership with Coinbase and plans to launch tokenized stock products backed 1:1 by the underlying equity assets. Pollak contrasted the proposed structure with Robinhood’s derivatives-based model, saying the Base approach would scale better in terms of trust, capital efficiency, and institutional acceptance. He added that combining the world’s largest capital market with the financial programmability of EVM-based infrastructure on Base could create a powerful financial foundation.
