Stablecoins, RWA & Tokenization

What are tokenized stocks and how do they work?

Tokenized stocks are blockchain tokens designed to track the price of a publicly listed equity, giving holders economic exposure to that stock without buying the share directly. An issuer typically backs each token against the underlying equity or a closely linked instrument, so the token's value moves with the stock. Tokenized stocks usually allow fractional units and round-the-clock transfer, but the rights they carry, such as voting or dividends, vary by structure and are often narrower than direct share ownership. Qatobit offers Tokenized Stocks alongside its other products, treated as one documented allocation within a wider portfolio. Read the methodology before you decide.
