What are stock coins?
Stock tokens are blockchain-based tokens that mirror the price of real stocks or ETFs. They are pegged to the actual stock prices, allowing users to trade them 24/7, just like cryptocurrencies. On Gate, we offer Ondo Stocks and xStocks. With Gate, you can not only invest in global stocks but also experience a new way of merging traditional finance with the crypto world.

FAQ
1. What are stock coins, and how are they related to real stocks?
Stock tokens are blockchain-based tokens that mirror the price of real stocks or ETFs. They are pegged to the actual stock prices, allowing users to trade them 24/7, just like cryptocurrencies.
2. Do I need a brokerage account to trade stock coins?
No. You only need a Gate account and some supported crypto assets (such as USDT) to buy or trade stock coins — no traditional brokerage or bank account is required.
3. Which stock coins can I trade on Gate?
Gate currently supports stock coins of major U.S. companies such as Tesla (TSLA), Apple (AAPL), and Amazon (AMZN). More high-quality stock coins will continue to be added in the future.
4. Do stock coins pay dividends?
Ondo Stocks are designed as a "Total-Return Tracker." This means they not only reflect the price movements of the underlying stock or ETF but also automatically reinvest dividends and interest (after withholding taxes), so the token value mirrors the overall economic performance of the asset. Users holding Ondo Stocks receive almost the same economic exposure as if they directly held the real stock and continuously reinvested dividends.
