Alpaca

Very honored to join Frank Chaparro on The Crypto Tape🎙️. I’ve been following Frank for a while, so it honestly feels a bit surreal to be sitting there laughing hard 🤣, and of course, discussing tokenization, APIs, AI, and how financial services infrastructure is evolving underneath all of this fast movement. It feels like the work we’ve been quietly building over the years at Alpaca is starting to get recognized in a more meaningful way by people who deeply understand the industry and where things may be heading longer term 🙏 . I feel that it is important to zoom out 🧘♀️, especially in moments where everything suddenly feels like it’s moving extremely fast 🚅. Tokenization, AI agents, stablecoins… there is so much momentum around all of it every single day. And in environments like this, I think it becomes even more important to think structurally and longer term about what is actually changing underneath (and more importantly, what is NOT changing) so that we can focus on executing towards where things may ultimately lead 🪷. Really appreciated the conversation with Frank 👯 . https://lnkd.in/eSKuKaMW

Proud to share that Alpaca’s acquisition of WealthKernel is now complete. This is a meaningful step in building a more unified brokerage infrastructure across the US and Europe — and reducing some of the fragmentation that still exists in global investing. Looking forward to working together with Karan S. and the team at Alpaca Europe as we continue building toward a more seamless, cross-border investing experience.
