According to The Block, cryptocurrency market maker GSR has received approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and has officially completed the acquisition of Portland SEC-registered broker-dealer Equilibrium Capital Services, which is now renamed GSR Securities. GSR CEO Xin Song stated that this acquisition will strengthen its compliance broker-dealer platform capabilities in the United States, focusing on serving institutional clients.

GSR had previously disclosed plans to position its business as a "Web3 investment bank," and after the acquisition, it will further expand its tokenized financing business. Additionally, GSR has been active this year: in April, it launched the GSR Crypto Core3 ETF on Nasdaq, in March it acquired token consulting firms Autonomous and Architech, and invested in the tokenized platform Libeara under SC Ventures; last month, SC Ventures, the fintech investment arm of Standard Chartered Bank, became GSR's first external shareholder and completed its investment.
