Introducing tokenized stock and commodity futures

11/22/2022

We’re excited to announce that we have added tokenized stocks and commodities to our list of products available on the platform. 

By simply having USDT in the BTCC accounts, users can trade the most popular commodities like gold and silver as well as trending stocks like Apple, Meta, and Microsoft.

What Are Tokenized Futures?

Tokenized futures are innovative products invented by BTCC, including tokenized stock futures, tokenized commodity futures, etc. Users can buy or sell stocks and commodities on BTCC with USDT without opening accounts on other traditional exchanges to trade stocks and commodities.

Tokenized futures are similar to cryptocurrency futures, but with a few differences:

  • Trading hours: Cryptocurrency futures can be traded 24/7, while the trading hours of tokenized futures are tied to the trading hours of the stocks/commodities. For example, tokenized US stocks are only available for trading during the trading hours of the US stock market. Users can find the trading hours of each tokenized future contract on the product’s intro page.
  • Prices: The price of BTCC’s tokenized futures is pegged at a 1:1 ratio with the market price of the target stock/commodity.
  • Leverage: The leverage of BTCC tokenized futures is relatively higher (50-150x). Traders are advised to select the leverage based on their own risk tolerance, and traders should trade cautiously.
  • Tokenized stock futures: BTCC tokenized stock futures trading differs from traditional stock trading. BTCC only provides contract trading services of the underlying stocks. When the underlying stock carries out corporate actions such as dividends and bonuses, please note that users on BTCC will not be entitled to those corporate actions.
  • Token issuance: BTCC tokens are not in circulation on the market. BTCC only provides futures trading services of these tokens.
  • Details: For the details of each tokenized futures contract, they can be found on each tokenized future contract’s intro page.
