- Public acquires TradeApp investment accounts from Stocktwits, expanding its user base and investing options.
- Stocktwits to focus on its core community offerings and real-time discussions, partnering with Public for broader brokerage services.
Popular investing platform Public is making a big move, acquiring the TradeApp investment accounts from Stocktwits.
This means that tens of thousands of Stocktwits users will soon join the Public community. Stocktwits, meanwhile, will refocus on its core strength – real-time discussions and community building around earnings and cryptocurrency.
“We’ve been adding new features and expanding our offerings, and this move further cements Public as a top choice for many investors,” said Stephen Sikes, COO of Public.
Howard Lindzon, CEO of Stocktwits, echoed the positive sentiment: “We’re excited to double down on our community and discussions while offering a great brokerage experience through Public.”
This acquisition seems like a win-win: Stocktwits users get a broader range of investing options on a well-regarded platform, and Public expands its user base. Plus, there’s a planned partnership between Public and Stocktwits to keep the community buzz going!
