I bought about a tenth of a share this morning and then went looking for the exit.

0.08 $CRCLB at 71.17, which came to 5.6936 USDT. In a normal brokerage that's the end of the story — you own a fraction, it sits in the account, and it stays there until you sell it back to the same broker who sold it to you.

So I opened the withdrawal screen to see what it would say.

BNB Smart Chain. Fee 0.00 CRCLB. Minimum withdrawal 0.05 CRCLB. Arrival time about one minute.

Minimum 0.05. That's less than a tenth of a Circle share, and it's below what I just bought. I could send this to my own wallet right now and keep it there.

Back on the asset page there's a second button I'd walked past for a week: convert CRCLB to CRCL, one to one. Not sell — convert. I tapped it and stopped there. It turns out you need a US stock trading account open first, and a disclaimer signed, for regulatory compliance. So the door exists, but there's a step in front of it I haven't taken.

None of this makes a bStock a share — the launch announcement is explicit that these are certificates backed one to one, not ownership in the underlying company.

That leaves two exits I can use today: sell it back to stablecoins, or withdraw it as a BEP-20 token to a wallet I control. I'll probably do neither. It stays in my Spot balance next to the crypto, which is fine. But knowing it isn't stuck changes how it feels to hold — a position I can walk out with is a different thing from one I can only sell back to whoever sold it to me.

I've spent a week writing about how these trade. I hadn't once checked what happens if I try to leave with one. Leaving turns out to be the part built out most, and the part nobody talks about, including me.

@BinanceCIS Have you opened the withdrawal screen on a bStock?
