1. What Are Tokenized Stocks
Tokenized stocks refer to digital tokens that represent ownership or rights to real-world stocks. These tokens are typically issued on a blockchain and allow stock ownership to be recorded, transferred, and managed through blockchain technology. Investors do not hold the actual stock certificates; instead, they hold digital tokens that correspond to specific stocks. Some tokenized stocks may provide holders with equivalent rights to those of the underlying stocks, such as price appreciation, dividends, and other benefits.
2. Advantages of Tokenized Stocks
Compared to traditional stock trading, tokenized stocks offer several key benefits:
Global Accessibility: Tradeable 24/7 without regional or traditional market hour restrictions.
High Liquidity: Lower investment thresholds allow users to buy in with smaller amounts.
Transparency: Transactions are recorded on an immutable ledger, enhancing trust and auditability.
Increased Efficiency: Smart contracts automate processes, reducing settlement time and operational costs.
Tokenized stocks combine the openness of blockchain technology with the value foundation of traditional securities, eliminating geographic and time barriers while significantly improving asset liquidity and composability, often described as "financial Legos."
According to data from RWA.xyz, the tokenized stock market has continued to expand since early 2025. As of July 9, the total market size has exceeded $400 million, with future projections estimating potential growth into trillions of dollars.
3. How Tokenized Stocks Are Structured
There are currently two main models for implementing tokenized stocks in the industry:
1) 1:1 Asset-Backed Security Tokens: Represented by platforms like xStocks. In this model, the token (e.g., TSLAX, representing Tesla stock) directly or indirectly reflects ownership or entitlement to real shares (TSLA) under legal frameworks. This approach creates an on-chain representation of real equities, focusing on authenticity and transparency of the underlying asset.
2) Derivative-Based Token Contracts: Represented by platforms like Robinhood. Here, the tokenized stock does not represent legal ownership of the underlying stock. Instead, it reflects a derivatives contract between the user and an entity such as Robinhood Europe, which tracks the stock’s price. Legally, this is an over-the-counter (OTC) derivative, and the on-chain token serves only as a digital certificate representing the rights within that contract.
