Odaily News Gate Research Institute released its latest research report "Arbitrage and Investment Opportunities in the Wave of Stock Tokenization", pointing out that stock tokenization uses blockchain technology to map traditional stocks into on-chain tokens, which have the advantages of being tradable, divisible, and 7×24 hours trading, and is becoming an important part of the digitization of real-world assets (RWA).
There are three main implementation modes in the current market: third-party custody + exchange access (such as Gate xStocks), licensed brokers' proprietary links, and contracts for difference (CFD). Professional investors can profit in the stock token market through three major strategies: hedging arbitrage between the spot and token markets, cross-exchange arbitrage between different platforms, and information arbitrage based on trading time differences. For individual investors, stock tokenization provides more diversified asset allocation options, including fragmented purchases of top stocks, more flexible trading hours, and lower transaction costs. However, stock tokenization still faces multiple risks such as price decoupling, oracle failure, and unclear legal supervision. Investors should remain prudent and manage risks reasonably.
Stock tokenization tokenizes the value of traditional enterprises and puts it on the chain. It is not only an important trend in the digitalization of the global capital market, but also brings new arbitrage and allocation opportunities for professional and individual investors. As regulatory policies gradually become clear in the future, this track is expected to continue to develop.
