it feels like various teams, albeit at different stages, are competing for the vision of the Finance Superapp - HL: "the blockchain to house all of finance" - CB: bringing coinbase onchain, bringing base to CB, tokenizing $COIN and presumably other equities soon, lending in-app via morpho, etc. - HOOD: expanding to crypto, prediction mkts, gambling, memes - Phantom: aiming to build "the world’s biggest and most-trusted consumer finance platform" the similarity across all seemingly is a merging of all financial activity all into one mobile app for consumers (some deviations, i.e. no HL mobile app, no tradfi stuff from phantom etc.)

Probably Robinhood seems best positioned, it feels easier for them to gain crypto share than for CB/other crypto cos to gain tradfi share

Do you think that % of trad is larger value than the % share the others can win in crypto?

hmm you mean robinhood's current % of trad vs. the % of trad that crypto cos can win? don't have a super intuitive answer honestly, my gut says crypto cos adding tradfi will be more about expanding the mkt than winning the existing share. in the other direction i think RH would have a similar effect for crypto, e.g. they wouldn't take coinbase's share but they would expand the amount of people trading/investing in crypto
