Buy stocks directly with BTC? Roxom launches a Bitcoin-based securities exchange

[Bitpush] There’s an interesting new trading platform called Roxom, which claims to be the world’s first purely Bitcoin-denominated securities exchange. What does that mean? It means you can directly use BTC to buy shares of publicly listed companies that hold Bitcoin, without ever touching fiat currency, bank accounts, or any of the traditional brokerage stuff.

Roxom’s CEO Borja Martel Seward put it pretty bluntly: right now, a lot of Bitcoin holders want to accumulate more coins, and buying the stocks of companies that hold Bitcoin is one way to do that. But the problem is, these companies are scattered across different exchanges, and the data and prices are all denominated in USD, which makes things messy. What Roxom does is bring all these companies together in one place, with all metrics and prices calculated in Bitcoin.

The platform will open in phases, starting with a waitlist system. Early users will have access to tokenized stocks, priced and settled in BTC from day one. The team says this is just the first step—the long-term goal is to list every publicly traded company in the world that holds Bitcoin assets, creating a unified market centered entirely around BTC.

To be honest, this approach really does fit the needs of some in the crypto community—they want stock returns without leaving the Bitcoin ecosystem. Whether it can succeed will depend on future liquidity and regulatory compliance.
