I thought the dividend on bStock should look something like this:
“Company paid $1 → I received $1 USDT.”
But bStocks work differently.
The dividend does not arrive as a separate cash payment.
When the underlying share pays a dividend, its net amount is reinvested into the underlying stock, and your position is adjusted via the Multiplier. Binance also notes that a dividend tax is applied before reinvestment.

So, for example:
You have
10 bStocks.
The underlying company pays a dividend.
You do not see:
+ $10 USDT
in your Spot balance.
Instead, the number of bStocks you economically represent changes.
This is an important difference from the usual understanding of dividends.
So after a dividend event, I wouldn’t look only at the token balance.
I would compare:
→ number of bStocks BEFORE;
→ Multiplier BEFORE;
→ number of bStocks AFTER;
→ Multiplier AFTER.
That’s the way to understand what actually changed in the position.
And here’s an interesting point.
For an investor, the result may seem almost unnoticeable: there’s no separate “dividend payment” on the balance.
But the economic effect is already accounted for in the position mechanics.
