Kraken Opens Ōura IPO Access Through xStocks

  • —Registration is open to Kraken users and xStocks partners in more than 110 countries
  • —Indications of interest are non-binding and do not guarantee an allocation
  • —Ōura shares are expected to be tokenized as ŌURAx on Nasdaq listing day
  • —Ōura would be the fourth company in Payward's IPO pipeline after SpaceX, Bending Spoons and Jersey Mike's
Why it matters: The model links pre-IPO allocations directly to a tokenized secondary market, blurring the line between crypto exchanges and traditional brokerage infrastructure.
