TREE NEWS update: Genius Foundation launched genius.fun on September 17, letting crypto communities create meme tokens paired with tokenized stocks such as bStocks and xStocks, with trading fees accumulating real equity and the foundation able to unwrap those stocks to exercise shareholder rights, including hostile bids. The GENIUS token rose more than 40% the same day. Creators receive 1.25% of trading fees, 0.25% funds token buybacks and supply locks, and tokens graduate to PancakeSwap after hitting 15 BNB.
Genius.fun Launches Meme-Tokenized Stock Platform on BSC, GENIUS Jumps 40%
The notable design choice is the foundation's ability to unwrap paired tokenized stocks and exercise shareholder rights, including hostile bids — a structure that blurs the line between meme speculation and actual corporate control. That matters most for issuers of tokenized equities, who now face a channel where retail-driven tokens can aggregate into governance leverage. Whether the fee-to-equity mechanism and graduation threshold attract sustained creator activity, rather than a single launch-day spike, is the open question.
