How to Buy and Trade Tokenized Stocks on Solana

What Are Tokenized Stocks?

Tokenized stocks are digital versions of real-world stocks that exist on a blockchain. Each token represents shares of a company like Tesla, Nvidia, or Apple, but instead of trading on a traditional stock exchange, they trade on Decentralized platforms built on blockchains. These tokens mirror the price of the real stock and are backed 1:1 by the actual shares or are structured via synthetic models, depending on the platform.

Why Tokenized Stocks?

Traditional stock markets come with restrictions: trading hours, high fees, regional barriers, and paperwork. Tokenized stocks aim to simplify and democratize access.

• 24/7 Trading: No market hours, trade anytime.

• Global Access: No geographic restrictions.

• Fractional Ownership: Buy small fractions of a share.

• Lower Fees: Reduced intermediaries.

How Tokenized Stocks Work on Solana

On Solana, tokenized stocks are issued as native SPL tokens. You can buy them through DEXes like DefiTuna, Raydium, Saros, or directly via supported wallets like Phantom, Solflare, and Step wallet using their built-in swap features.

These tokens mirror real stock prices through custodial feeds or synthetic models. Examples of trading pairs include:

Trading pairs can be:

•  AAPLr to USDC
• TSLAr to SOL

You swap these tokens much like you would swap any other token on Solana.

Step-by-Step Guide to Buying

1. Set Up a Wallet
Download a Solana-compatible wallet such as Phantom, Solflare, or Step wallet.

2. Fund Your Wallet
Add USDC or SOL to your wallet. Keep a small amount for transaction fees.

3. Access a Platform
Visit Jupiter, DeFi Tuna, Raydium, Saros app, or use your wallet’s native swap interface.

4. Connect and Choose a Token
Connect your wallet and select the tokenized stock you want to buy.

5. Confirm the Swap
Select the trading pair, enter the amount, review the slippage and fees, and then confirm. The stock token will appear in your wallet balance after approval.

DeFi Integration

Solana-native tokenized stocks go beyond simple holding. They can be used across DeFi protocols.

• Liquidity Provision

Deposit TSLAr or AAPLr into DeFiTuna or Raydium pools and earn trading fees.

These use cases are not possible with traditional stock ownership and represent a new way to make financial assets work in onchain strategies.

Platform Differences and Arbitrage

Platforms like Remora and xStocks offer different versions of the same stocks:

• TSLAr by Remora
• TSLAx by xStocks

They may vary depending on the custody model, price feed, and fees. Due to these differences, prices can diverge across platforms, creating occasional arbitrage opportunities. Traders are encouraged to monitor both versions and compare liquidity and pricing before executing swaps.

Tokenized stocks on Solana offer fast, borderless, and programmable access to global equities. They provide a new model for ownership and financial utility, entirely onchain.
