As the boundaries between traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi) continue to blur, crypto investors are looking for efficient ways to access Real World Assets (RWA). MEXC, a top-tier global cryptocurrency exchange, is leading this evolution by offering Tokenized Stocks.
This innovative offering allows users to trade the price movements of top US companies—like Nvidia and Tesla—using USDT, bridging the gap between Wall Street and the crypto market.
In this guide, we will explore what Tokenized Stocks are on MEXC and provide a step-by-step tutorial on how to buy Tokenized Stocks with USDT.
What Are Tokenized Stocks on MEXC?
Tokenized Stocks on MEXC are financial instruments that allow you to gain exposure to the US stock market without needing a traditional brokerage account.
Instead of holding the physical share certificate, you are trading a derivative contract anchored to the ONDO tokenized stock spot index price. This means you can profit from the rise or fall of stock prices while enjoying the flexibility of the crypto market.
Key Characteristics:
- RWA Integration: Prices are anchored to ONDO tokenized stocks, tracking the underlying real-world asset (though slight price deviations may occur).
- USDT Settlement: All trades are margined and settled in USDT, eliminating the need for currency conversion (FX).
- Directional Flexibility: Unlike buying traditional shares where you mostly profit from price increases, MEXC allows you to Long (Buy) or Short (Sell) tokenized stocks easily.
Why Trade Tokenized Stocks on MEXC?
Trading tokenized stocks on a crypto exchange offers unique advantages over traditional brokers, particularly for digital asset holders.
1. Zero Funding Fees (Limited Time)
A major advantage of MEXC’s Tokenized Stock product is that it currently charges NO funding fees. Unlike standard crypto perpetual contracts where you pay a fee every 8 hours, you can hold your tokenized stock positions for longer periods without fee erosion.
2. High Capital Efficiency
You can access the US stock market using your existing USDT holdings. There is no need to off-ramp to a bank or wire USD.
- Leverage: MEXC offers leverage on tokenized stock trades, allowing you to maximize capital efficiency compared to traditional cash accounts.
3. Access to Top Global Companies
MEXC currently supports a curated list of the most popular, high-volatility Tokenized Stocks, including:
- Tech Leaders: NVDA (Nvidia), AAPL (Apple), GOOGL (Google), META, AMZN (Amazon).
- Market Movers: TSLA (Tesla), MCD (McDonald’s).
- Crypto-Native Stocks: COIN (Coinbase), HOOD (Robinhood).
Important Rules for Trading Tokenized Stocks
Since these assets track real-world markets, the rules differ slightly from trading Bitcoin or Altcoins.
Trading Hours
While crypto markets run 24/7, Tokenized Stocks follow US market hours.
- Open: Monday 12:00 to Saturday 12:00 (UTC+8).
- Schedule: 5 Days a week.
- Suspension: Trading is paused during weekends and US market holidays. You cannot open or close positions during these times, so please manage your risk accordingly.
Margin Mode: Isolated Only
To better manage risk, MEXC Tokenized Stocks only support Isolated Margin mode.
- Why Isolated? This ensures that a volatile move in a specific stock (e.g., TSLA) does not affect the funds in your other crypto positions. Cross Margin is not supported.
Handling Corporate Actions
Since these are derivative contracts based on tokenized assets:
- Dividends: Users do not receive dividends.
- Splits & Mergers: If a stock undergoes a split or reverse split, MEXC will implement an “Early Settlement” plan to settle user positions before the event to ensure fair value.

FAQ: Tokenized Stocks on MEXC
Q: Do I own the actual share when I buy Tokenized Stocks on MEXC?
A: No. You are buying a derivative contract anchored to the ONDO tokenized stock index. This gives you price exposure without physical ownership or voting rights.
Q: How is the price determined?
A: The “Fair Price” is anchored to the ONDO tokenized US stock spot index, ensuring it closely tracks the real-time value of the underlying asset.
Q: What is Gap Risk?
A: Since the stock market closes daily, the price may “gap” up or down when the market reopens the next day due to overnight news. This creates a risk of liquidation if your margin is too low. Always ensure sufficient margin before the daily close.
Conclusion
Tokenized Stocks on MEXC represent the future of asset convergence. By enabling users to trade giants like Apple and Tesla with USDT, MEXC provides a seamless, low-barrier entry to the traditional financial markets—now with the added benefit of Zero Funding Fees.
