Dub: the copy trading app that has teens talking | TechCrunch
Briefly

Social media has transformed various sectors, including investing, as illustrated by the rise of the app Dub, founded by Steven Wang. It allows users to follow investment strategies from experienced traders rather than selecting stocks independently. With more than 800,000 downloads and $17 million raised in funding, Dub merges mobile technology with influencer culture, enabling collaborative investing. Wang's concept was influenced by trends in retail trading and the Gamestop incident, indicating a shift toward community-led financial decision-making among users, particularly Gen Z.
Dub aims to revolutionize investing by blending social media and finance, allowing users to follow the trades of top investors rather than picking individual stocks.
The platform has attracted over 800,000 downloads and raised significant seed funding, illustrating a strong market interest in influencer-driven investment strategies.
