When you buy tokenized stocks bStocks or enter TradFi products directly via a crypto exchange, it’s easy to relax and forget that there are specific rules in effect here. Many people mistakenly perceive stock instruments as a completely risk-free haven, but from my own experience, I’ve identified a few important nuances that everyone should keep in mind.
The biggest hidden pitfall is the different nature of trading hours. The crypto market is active around the clock, seven days a week, while traditional platforms follow a clear schedule and close on weekends and holidays. If an important geopolitical or corporate event happens on the weekend, you won’t be able to close your TradFi position promptly, and on Monday you may encounter an unpleasant price gap (gap) when trading resumes. Also, you should consider the synthetic nature of tokenized assets: bStocks track the price chart of the underlying stock, but you do not receive voting rights at shareholders’ meetings. On top of that, corporate reports and central bank decisions regarding interest rates sometimes cause volatility—no less aggressive than the swings of popular altcoins.
Do you take weekends in TradFi into account when holding such positions?
