Don't panic, this is a minimalist investment guide for xStocks (tokenized US stocks) 📕 one ⃣ Firstly, let me use dialectical "sophistry" to argue that the relationship between cryptocurrency stocks and counterfeit currencies is not one of opposition, but rather a unity of opposition. Don't be anxious about siphoning off the liquidity of altcoins from cryptocurrency stocks, as the liquidity of altcoins has long been depleted. On the contrary, cryptocurrency stocks will consume excess blockchain space capacity (such as Robinhood's ambitious plan for a full chain trading platform), injecting new narrative dynamics into native encrypted technology narrative altcoins. High performance public chains are saved! Intention Central is saved! Chain abstraction is saved! ZK is saved! FHE is saved! The trading scale of cryptocurrency stocks, whether on CEX or DEX, is currently very small. Most native cryptocurrency users adopt a wait-and-see attitude and are generally unfamiliar with the fundamentals and volatility characteristics of these stocks, and have not actively engaged in trading. two ⃣ So, before cheering or panicking about new things, let's first understand their characteristics. XStocks currently offers over 60 tokenized US stock products, covering stocks, gold, and ETFs, all supported by actual stocks in a 1:1 ratio. 🔥 Popular categories The technology sector is the most abundant, including FAANG giants (Apple, Google, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, Netflix) as well as semiconductor companies such as Nvidia and Intel; Medical and health stocks cover a wide range, from large pharmaceutical companies to medical equipment manufacturers; Financial services stocks include banks, payment companies, and investment institutions; Cryptocurrency related stocks include companies directly related to cryptocurrencies such as Coinbase, MicroStrategy, Circle, etc; 💎 unique advantages These tokenized stocks support 24/7 trading and can be traded on CEX platforms such as Bybit and Kraken, as well as DEX platforms such as Raydium, Jupiter, and Kamino in the Solana DeFi ecosystem. They can also serve as collateral in DeFi protocols, enabling lending, staking, and other functions. 📈 market performance As of June 30th, the trading volume of xStocks has reached $1.338 million, with over 1200 independent traders, among which 6 tokens including NVDA, MSTR, TSLA, CRCL, SPY, AAPL are the most active. three ⃣ Minimalist Operation Guide for Coin Stock Investment The first step is to determine the classic barbell investment strategy for stocks and bonds at a ratio of 60:40, which involves investing 60% of the funds in fixed income wealth management and the remaining 40% in cryptocurrency and stock investments. The second step is to understand the fundamentals and volatility characteristics of the asset you plan to buy. For example, using the four quadrant method of growth stocks, cyclical stocks, safe haven assets, and meme/high volatility stocks to classify these assets: 🚀 Growth stock quadrant (24 stocks) Core features: High growth potential, emphasis on future value creation Representative companies: FAANG Technology Giant, AI Chip Leader NVDA, Innovative Healthcare LLP/NVO Investment logic: Suitable for investors who are optimistic about long-term technological development and innovation trends Risk Warning: High valuation, sensitive to changes in interest rates 🔄 Periodic stock quadrant (13 stocks) Core feature: significantly influenced by economic cycles and highly correlated with macroeconomics Representative companies: Energy giant XOM/CVX, Financial Services JPM/GS, Industrial Manufacturing HON Investment logic: Suitable for allocation during economic recovery and rising inflation periods Risk Warning: Poor performance during economic downturn 🛡️ Safe haven asset quadrant (21 units) Core features: Strong defensive ability, providing stable returns and capital protection Representative companies: Healthcare JNJ/PFE, Consumer Necessities KO/PG, Gold ETF/Index Fund Investment logic: suitable for asset allocation in high market uncertainty Advantages: Strong resistance to decline, stable dividend distribution 🎭 Meme stock quadrant (2 units) Core features: Driven by social media and dominated by individual investor emotions Representative companies: GME Game Station, etc Investment logic: speculative investment with high risk and high return Risk Warning: Extremely high volatility, strict control of positions required Step 3: Establish a strategy. Here, I provide a golden strategy suitable for cryptocurrency and stock novices: a combination of stocks, bonds, and gold. That is, 60% of fixed income wealth management, 20% of cryptocurrency stocks (recommended allocation to growth stocks), and 20% of gold. Step 4: Implement a buying strategy. Due to the poor quality or lack of xStocks on the blockchain, it is recommended to purchase them on Kraken/Bybit. If you are not confident about CEX, you can bring it up on the chain after buying. After all, this time it's tokenized US stocks, not the synthetic US stocks that FTX used to do before. above.
