Tokenized U.S. stocks will keep getting hotter, but don’t treat it like a free-withdrawal voucher
I’ve recently been paying more attention to xStocks and tokenized U.S. stocks. Bybit has already integrated xStocks tracking $SPACE
, along with NVIDIA, Apple, Alphabet, Coinbase, Amazon, into its dual-currency investment offerings. In addition, Solana’s Q2 tokenized asset trading volume has doubled to $5.8 billion, with tokenized stocks accounting for $4.8 billion. This direction is very clear: the U.S. stock market is being moved into on-chain trading scenarios.
I think it’s imaginative. In the past, for ordinary users who wanted to trade U.S. stocks, they had to deal with account opening, regional restrictions, trading hours, and funding channels. Tokenized stocks lower the entry barriers, and they can also be connected to on-chain wealth management, collateralization, and structured products. For crypto users, this feels more intuitive than simply buying an RWA concept coin.
But I won’t view tokenized U.S. stocks as a perfect solution. Underlying stocks follow U.S. market trading hours, while on-chain markets run 7×24. When the traditional market is closed, how is the on-chain price determined? In extreme market conditions, who will absorb liquidity? If there’s a large discount/premium spread, who bears the cost—the user or the platform? These are real questions.
So when I look at tokenized U.S. stocks, the focus isn’t how impressive the list is, but rather trading volume, bid-ask spread, market-making depth, and the exit experience. On-chaining U.S. stocks is a trend, but whether it can support stable trading is what determines whether it becomes the next real demand.
