Super interesting! After Binance @binance launched tokenized U.S. stocks, now they've fast-forwarded to allowing U.S. stocks to be used as collateral. To put it simply, the so-called on-chain stocks before were just about bringing U.S. stocks onto the blockchain so you could trade them 24/7. Essentially, it was just price exposure—you bought them and simply held them. But now, with Binance's new bStocks leveraged collateral feature, these assets are finally starting to work for you. The bStocks you hold, like NVDA, TSLA, SPCX, META, can now directly be used as collateral in Cross Margin and Portfolio Margin scenarios. Translation: If you're bullish on NVIDIA and want to hold it long-term, you don't have to sell it—you can unlock its liquidity to deploy other strategies, while still enjoying the economic benefits of the underlying asset during the holding period. This is the concept of "one asset, three uses": you can hold it, use it as collateral, and trade it. The first batch of 15 assets covers AI, chips, tech giants, and ETFs, all backed 1:1 by underlying assets under the ADGM compliance framework. From Pre-IPO perpetuals to Direct Stocks and now bStocks collateral, Binance is pushing further and further down the tokenized securities path, staying way ahead of the game!
