Kraken-backed xStocks names Jersey Mike’s as third tokenized IPO target

Jersey Mike’s priced its IPO at $23 a share ahead of NYSE trading on July 30, 2026, while Kraken and Binance outlined separate access routes and trading mechanics for JMKE exposure.

Fact Check
Multiple sources, including the official Kraken support page (support.kraken.com/articles/jersey-mikes-ipo-xstocks), confirm the claim. Solana Compass explicitly identifies Jersey Mike's as xStocks' third tokenized IPO after SpaceX and Bending Spoons. Cointelegraph confirms eligible US users can request book-entry/direct IPO allocations while global users in more than 110 countries can obtain tokenized JMKEx shares backed 1:1 by underlying stock. The official Kraken page corroborates the dual-product structure and 1:1 backing. All key elements of the claim are supported.
