Stash is making investing accessible to everyone. The platform and app was started in 2015 and since then has grown to more than 1.2 million accounts and over 2.5 million content subscribers.
Brandon Krieg is the CEO and co-founder of Stash. He explains that Stash is not only about investing, it is also a learning platform. Stash opens up conversations between friends and family about investing and what to be looking for. Krieg says he is really proud of his customers.
The minimum investment in Stash is only $5, opening the door for all types of investors. In fact, over 80% of Stash customers are first-time investors.
When it comes to crypto, Krieg says they are waiting and watching. Krieg wants to get a sense of what regulators do and say. That being said, Stash customers are asking to invest in crypto. Krieg reveals that Stash will likely roll out a product sometime later this year.

The growth of the metaverse is bringing new challenges to managing safe, diverse communities. Helping Cheddar kick off Women's History Month, Tiffany Xingyu Wang, chief marketing officer for AI-powered content moderation company Spectrum Labs, joined Cheddar's Opening Bell to discuss how platforms can help create safer, more inclusive online communities in the metaverse and about her own experience as a woman in technology. "Trust is really the new digital transformation, and it should not be a siloed task solely belonging to chief security officers, to privacy officers, or the people who were given the task of trust and safety," she said. "It should be a priority for all the C suite and a whole company to rally around."
