RWA track has always been a key investment area for us. In the past two years, the tokenization of U.S. Treasury bonds has been booming, and now the tokenization of U.S. stocks is becoming the new trend.
Our research team has recently discovered a new RWA opportunity: #xStocks (@xStocksFi) has officially launched on #Bybit (@Bybit_Official). In simple terms, it brings the U.S. stocks we are familiar with (like Apple, Tesla, Nvidia, and other large blue-chip stocks) onto the blockchain, transforming them into tokens that can be traded like ordinary cryptocurrencies using USD. This will be a significant transformation, serving as a bridge between traditional stocks and the crypto world.
Why am I optimistic about this?
1️⃣ The advantages of traditional stocks + blockchain have come together.
In the past, to buy U.S. stocks, we had to open a U.S. stock account, convert foreign currency, deal with time zone differences, pay transaction fees, and worry about tax audits (recently, Futu has been tightening scrutiny on overseas accounts). However, #xStocks is different; it is tokenized stock that can be purchased directly with USDT, available for trading 24/7, so you won't miss any news or market movements.
Moreover, it is backed by real stocks, not futures or synthetic assets, but true 1:1 tokens with stocks collateralized behind them. The issuance is handled by Backed Finance, which has complied with European MiFID II prospectus requirements, and the assets are custodied with Swiss/U.S. regulatory authorities, providing a solid foundation.
2️⃣ Play on-chain and access #DeFi.
With these #xStocks, you can not only hold them for appreciation (like long-term investing in actual stocks) but also use them in #DeFi scenarios for collateral, lending, arbitrage, and yield strategies. This is very friendly for us Web3 veterans, effectively allowing us to earn on both ends—having the fundamentals of actual stocks while engaging in on-chain activities.
For example, I can lend out my #AAPL (APPLX) to earn interest or use it as collateral to borrow stablecoins for other investments, significantly increasing liquidity and capital efficiency.
3️⃣ #Bybit as a trading platform is very reliable.
Bybit already has good liquidity and a user-friendly interface. Now, with the introduction of #xStocks, it has become our new entry point for trading U.S. stocks on-chain. There’s no need to go through a brokerage account, and you don’t have to worry about foreign exchange restrictions; if you have USDT, you can get started, with the same trading interface as traditional cryptocurrency trading, greatly lowering the barrier to entry.
For users in the crypto space, they can finally "trade U.S. stocks" in a familiar environment. Plus, it operates 24/7, which is a huge improvement compared to the traditional stock market that only opens for 6.5 hours a day.
4️⃣ The potential goes far beyond U.S. stocks.
Currently, the "Seven Golden Flowers" (#AAPL, #TSLA, #NVDA, #META, #AMZN, etc.) are online, along with some crypto-related companies (#MSTR, #HOOD, #CRCL). This is just the beginning. In the future, RWA tokenization is a major trend, with real estate, bonds, and commodities likely to become on-chain assets.
According to data, the RWA market has already exceeded $24 billion this year, with a year-end target of $50 billion. BlackRock's CEO Larry Fink has also personally endorsed it, stating that tokenization is "the future of financial infrastructure." This essentially tells us that this track is not just a trend; it is a wave.
5️⃣ How to participate in purchasing U.S. stocks on #Bybit.

In summary, this collaboration between #Bybit and #xStocks represents a significant leap forward in the development of RWA, making it easier and more convenient for ordinary cryptocurrency investors to enter the wave of U.S. stock investment without any barriers. It allows for a full integration of crypto alpha opportunities with U.S. stock beta opportunities, effectively hedging risks and achieving considerable returns. This will be a major upgrade in financial instruments—those who get on board first will have the first-mover advantage. 🧐
