The cryptocurrency exchange will enable eligible users to access thousands of publicly traded U.S. securities through its existing mobile application. Market data will stream in real-time from Nasdaq, while Apex Clearing Corp., part of Apex Fintech Solutions, handles custody and clearing operations.
Gemini Galactic Markets, LLC, registered with FINRA and protected by SIPC, facilitates the securities offerings. While commission-free for standard trades, certain transaction categories may incur fees.

Prior to the announcement, GEMI stock was changing hands at $4.35 but tumbled 3.9% in early Tuesday session following the product launch. The equity has plummeted 86% over the past twelve months, leaving the company with approximately $526 million in market capitalization. Despite achieving 39% revenue expansion in the most recent twelve-month period, profitability remains elusive.
<blockquote>
 “Building financial platforms is something we’ve been doing for more than ten years,” noted Cameron Winklevoss, who co-founded Gemini and serves as president. “Crypto was our starting point, and stocks represent our expansion so customers can consolidate their financial activities within the Gemini ecosystem.”
 Tyler Winklevoss, serving as CEO, stated: “We’re working toward integrating multiple financial instruments—ranging from cryptocurrencies and stocks to derivatives—within a single regulated infrastructure.”
</blockquote>
This strategic pivot creates head-to-head competition with established players Robinhood (HOOD) and Coinbase (COIN). Market participants responded negatively to both competitors—COIN retreated 2.4% while HOOD declined 2.3% during Tuesday’s session.
<h3 id="established-regulatory-framework">Established Regulatory Framework</h3>
Gemini enters the brokerage space with regulatory infrastructure already established. The platform obtained broker-dealer authorization from FINRA in 2022. Subsequently, the company modified its registration to function as an introducing broker, enabling customer order routing for all NMS securities through Apex for trade execution and settlement.
Additionally, <a href="https://coincentral.com/gemini-gemi-stock-jumps-30-after-q1-revenue-beats-with-credit-card-surge/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Gemini</a> obtained a Derivatives Clearing Organization registration from the CFTC in April 2026—furthering its ambitions of constructing a comprehensive regulated trading ecosystem.
Currently, the stock trading functionality remains unavailable to residents of Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, Massachusetts, Texas, Puerto Rico, Washington D.C., and Guam.
<h3 id="financial-performance-shows-revenue-growth-amid-losses">Financial Performance Shows Revenue Growth Amid Losses</h3>
During the first quarter of 2026, Gemini reported a loss of $0.93 per share, falling short of analyst expectations of -$0.61—representing an earnings miss of approximately 52%. Quarterly revenue reached $50.27 million, marking a 42% increase compared to the prior-year period.
Mizuho Securities revised its GEMI price objective downward from $12 to $10 earlier in the year while maintaining its Outperform recommendation, highlighting the firm’s transformation into a diversified financial markets operator.
During the company’s shareholder meeting, investors re-elected six board members, including both Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, for terms extending through 2027.
According to InvestingPro analysis, GEMI shares appear undervalued based on current trading levels.
