What are tokenized stocks?
Tokenized stocks are tokens that track the price of a US share or ETF. The issuer holds or tracks the underlying stock and the token price follows it. You trade them with USDT, without a separate brokerage account.
| Tokenized stocks | Brokerage | |
|---|---|---|
| Account | Your exchange account | A US brokerage account |
| Priced in | Stablecoins such as USDT | US dollars |
| Minimum size | Fractions usually allowed | Depends on the broker |
| Shareholder rights | Usually no voting rights | Full rights |
| Investor protection | Depends on issuer and local rules | Securities regulation applies |

The risks of tokenized stocks
- Price gaps: tokens may trade while US markets are closed, then gap at the open.
- Issuer risk: token value depends on the issuer's custody and redemption.
- Different rights: usually no voting rights; dividends depend on product rules.
- Regulatory risk: rules differ by region and availability can change.
- Market risk: individual stocks still fall. “It's a US stock” doesn't make it safe.
