Stock and ETF trading now live on WOOFi

WOOFi was a pioneer of the PropAMM space - an onchain smart contract that lets institutional market makers provide liquidity for any user. With the rise of tokenized real world assets (RWAs), a new opportunity has emerged, as any one stock or ETF can be fragmented across multiple chains, dexes, and different token issuer.

A zero-fee trading terminal, live now

WOOFi's new trading terminal is live on BNB Chain. Users can trade tokenized stocks with zero trading fees, no minimums, and self-custody throughout. What used to require a brokerage account, KYC queues, and market-hours restrictions is now available to anyone with a wallet, around the clock.

Just connect your crypto wallet, top it up with USDT or USDC on BNB Chain, and you can start swapping across 400+ US stocks and ETFs.

WOOFi's application doesn't apply any extra fee - it routes directly to the onchain pool to find the best price for the user.

Phase 2: WOOFi becomes its own liquidity source for RWAs

As mentioned at the start of the article, the biggest problem in tokenized stocks today is fragmentation. Liquidity is scattered across chains and split between different issuers, such as Ondo, bStocks, xStocks, Robinhood, Coinbase, and more.

Next week, we will begin testing on WOOFi's PropAMM, with the market maker providing liquidity directly via onchain pools. Other wallets and aggregators, including 1inch, 0x, and KyberSwap will route their own user orders via these pools, seeking the best prices. The first pools will be for high volume bStocks like TSLA and NVDA on BNB Chain, but will scale to more networks and assets.

When the WOOFi pools receive orders from users, the market maker is able to earn from its strategy, which results in more revenue share to $WOO stakers on WOO Stake.

Earn vaults: Yield on any asset

Providing this liquidity opens a new earn opportunity for WOOFi users. WOOFi's onchain Earn vaults are single-sided: deposit any supported asset, whether that's a tokenized stock, a crypto asset, or a stablecoin. The vault passes deposited assets to the market maker, which deploys them in the pools in exchange for interest paid back to the vault.

Unlike providing liquidity on AMM dexes, there is no impermanent loss; the market maker hedges its exposure and the vault remains funded for withdrawals. This offers a first-of-its-kind opportunity for global users to earn interest on stocks and ETFs without the need for centralized custody or KYC.

We've done this before

This isn't WOOFi's first time solving fragmentation with purpose-built liquidity. When WOOFi launched in 2021, it pioneered the sPMM model across multiple chains at a time when DeFi liquidity was splintering across Ethereum L2s. Every new chain diluted existing pools further, and WOOFi's concentrated, professional market maker liquidity cut through that fragmentation to deliver pricing retail AMMs couldn't match. It worked, and it became the foundation of WOOFi's volume for years.

The RWA landscape today looks like that moment again: a new asset class, liquidity scattered across chains and issuers, and no dominant venue. WOOFi is confident the same playbook applies, and that this is the opportunity to massively grow its market share and significance in DeFi.
