Cascade Debuts 24/7 Neo-Brokerage Offering Perpetuals on Cryptos, U.S. Stocks

Cascade, a New York-based startup, has introduced what it claims is the first 24/7 neo-brokerage platform. This platform is built around a unified margin account that allows retail traders to access perpetual markets tied to cryptocurrencies, major U.S. stocks, and private companies like OpenAI and SpaceX. The system is designed to resemble a modern retail brokerage but operates on a new execution and settlement stack optimized for always-on trading, leveraging crypto infrastructure for software-based settlement and continuous collateral management. Users can move USD directly with banks, trade from this single account around the clock, and potentially own equities, trade digital assets, and borrow against their portfolio within one system. Cascade has raised $15 million from investors including Polychain Capital and Coinbase Ventures, with public access anticipated in early 2026.
