BERKELEY, California, August 28, 2026, Chainwire

Bankr, the financial infrastructure platform for AI agents, has launched what it says is the first natural-language liquidity provision product for tokenized stocks, built on Aerodrome, the leading decentralized exchange on Base. The new product allows users to buy supported Coinbase Tokenized Stocks and deploy them as liquidity with a single typed command, giving them access to value that has historically accrued to a small number of professional market-making firms.

The launch comes as Coinbase Tokenized Stocks go live natively on Base — the Ethereum layer-2 network incubated by Coinbase — under the B20 standard, with Aerodrome serving as a primary liquidity venue for assets including tokenized Apple and NVIDIA shares. Coinbase joins other trading venues that have moved to bring equities onchain: in mid-2025, Robinhood began offering tokenized US stocks and ETFs to customers in the EU, while Kraken, working with Backed Finance, introduced its xStocks line of tokenized equities.

Liquidity provision for equities has long been dominated by specialized trading firms with proprietary infrastructure and privileged market access. In 2025, the largest US market maker posted a record $12.2 billion in trading revenue. Tokenized stocks are opening that role to a wider set of participants for the first time: onchain tokenized equity volume has grown roughly 800% this year, and 55% of that trading now takes place outside traditional US market hours, when no traditional market maker is quoting.

Bankr says its product is designed for that gap. Concentrated liquidity, the provision model Aerodrome uses, lets providers allocate capital within specific price ranges rather than across the entire price curve, raising capital efficiency but demanding the kind of continuous active management that has traditionally required dedicated desks. Bankr's product handles that management: users can create and manage positions on Aerodrome without manually configuring price ranges, and the agent monitors them continuously and rebalances them as prices move, including overnight, on weekends, and at other times when traditional markets are closed. Users initiate and control all positions, and the agent operates only within the parameters the user has approved.

Since tokenized stocks went live on Base on Monday, Aerodrome has facilitated $103 million in tokenized stock trading volume across four pools, according to the announcement, highlighting 24/7 liquidity for stock trading.

“Market making stocks has been a closed club for thirty years. Coinbase and Aerodrome made it permissionless and onchain. We just made it a sentence you type,” said 0xDeployer, founder of Bankr.

Coinbase Tokenized Stocks are onchain certificates backed by underlying shares held in segregated custody with regulated custodians. Full details on the token structure, eligibility, and redemption are available in Coinbase’s announcement: [].

Coinbase Tokenized Stocks are available only in eligible jurisdictions outside the United States and may be subject to identity verification and other eligibility requirements. Liquidity provision carries risks including price movement, adverse selection, smart contract risk, and impermanent loss — the divergence cost that arises when the relative prices of pooled assets shift away from simply holding the assets outright.

“Liquidity providers are the backbone of deep, functional onchain liquidity. Lowering the barrier to providing this is essential to keeping markets healthy as onchain finance grows,” said Alex Cutler, CEO and Cofounder of Dromos Labs and Core Contributor to Aerodrome.
