Binance Exchange has announced the admission to trading of bStocks, fully-backed tokenized securities representing select U.S. stocks issued by BTech Holdings Limited, a Binance group affiliate ("Issuer"). Eligible users can trade bStocks 24/7 and hold on Binance, self-custody them through BNB Chain-compatible wallets, and use them across supported DeFi applications.

At launch, the first bStocks listings will be Circle Internet Group (CRCLB/USDT), Micron Technology (MUB/USDT), NVIDIA (NVDAB/USDT), Sandisk (SNDKB/USDT), and Tesla (TSLAB/USDT). SpaceX (SPCXB/USDT) is planned for trading, pending SpaceX's public listing on Nasdaq, with additional bStocks admission for trading on Binance Exchange to be announced progressively.

First previewed in Binance's recent announcement introducing U.S. equities trading, bStocks combines traditional investing with the flexibility of on-chain transferability. The launch also advances Binance's mission to democratize access to financial opportunities across asset classes and market stages — from private-market exposure through Pre-IPO perpetuals, to public equities, to tokenized real-world assets.

Users can convert between supported underlying equities (purchased through Binance's broker-dealer entity Nest Trading Limited) and bStocks at a 1:1 ratio with zero conversion fees. With fractional shares starting from as little as $5, bStocks makes investing more accessible.

The launch of bStocks follows regulatory approval of the Issuer's prospectuses by the ADGM's Financial Services Regulatory Authority. bStocks are designed as a Certificate over select U.S. stocks and ETFs. Each bStock is backed 1:1 by a corresponding underlying share held with a regulated custodian.

"Early demand for stocks trading on Binance shows that users want more flexible ways to access traditional markets," said Richard Teng, co-CEO of Binance. "bStocks are the next step in that evolution, bringing real-world assets on-chain while giving users greater portability and self-custody. As tokenization gains momentum, Binance is helping bridge traditional finance and crypto infrastructure in a way that is simple, secure, and user-driven."

As standard BEP-20 tokens on BNB Chain, bStocks are compatible with wallets and on-chain applications across the ecosystem, with planned integrations to be announced progressively.

Corporate actions such as stock splits and dividend-related adjustments are processed automatically, helping users maintain continuous exposure without requiring manual action.
