KuCoin Launches xStocks, Delivering a One-Stop Access Point to Top Global Tokenized Equities for the World's Most Extensive Crypto User Base
The first batch of supported assets includes SPYx (S&P 500 ETF), CRCLx (Circle), TSLAx (Tesla), MSTRx (MicroStrategy), and NVDAx (NVIDIA) —all tokenized equities backed 1:1 by real stocks held in secure, bankruptcy remote collateral accounts, and issued on the Solana blockchain.
Capturing a Dual-Cycle Growth Opportunity: Bridging Traditional and Crypto Assets
On July 10, 2025, NVIDIA became the first publicly listed company to surpass a $4 trillion market capitalization. Just days later, on July 14, Bitcoin reached an all-time high, breaching $120,000 for the first time.
As traditional equities and crypto assets simultaneously enter bullish territory, xStocks offer global investors a new paradigm of portfolio construction—"with tokenized NVIDIA in one hand, Bitcoin on the other."
As the first USDT-denominated tokenized equity platform accessible in the largest number of countries and regions, KuCoin's listing of xStocks opens a low-barrier, highly efficient, and transparent investment gateway, empowering users to seamlessly move between top US equity exposure and crypto assets.
A Truly Global Asset Allocation Platform: Empowering Long-Term User Value

Committed to user asset safety and long-term value creation, KuCoin continues to build a comprehensive, sustainable, and robust product ecosystem designed to empower global investors.
The xStocks product line is grounded in transparency and composability, with the following structural safeguards:
Each tokenized asset is fully backed 1:1 by real stocks held in third-party regulated custodian banks, in a bankruptcy remote structure.
Tokens are issued under an approved EU prospectus and tokenized following the Swiss DLT Act.
Token holders have the primary claim to the value of any held collateral.
Proof of Reserves, powered by Chainlink, coming soon for xStocks.
Unlocking Greater Flexibility: Smarter Allocation, Seamless Execution
The launch of xStocks enhances capital efficiency and portfolio agility for crypto-native users, while also providing new tools to balance risk and reward across market cycles:
Flexible allocation, diversified exposure: Users can tailor portfolios to their risk preferences by allocating between exposure to US ETFs, high-growth tech stocks, and digital assets—blending conservative and aggressive strategies.
Unified trading, frictionless switching: Through KuCoin's account, users can effortlessly swap between tokenized stocks and crypto using USDT, without fiat onramps or platform switching. A true one-account solution for global multi-asset investing.
BC Wong, CEO of KuCoin, commented:
"At KuCoin, we are dedicated to building a secure and trustworthy investment platform centered on user asset protection and long-term value growth. The launch of xStocks is not only a key extension of our global asset offering—it's a strategic milestone in bridging traditional finance and the Web3 ecosystem.

Morgan Stanley stays bullish on U.S. stocks
In this Oct. 18, 2011, file photo, the Morgan Stanley logo is displayed on its Times Square building, in New York. (AP Photo/Mark Lennihan, File) Morgan Stanley backed its bullish stance on U.S. equities on Monday, citing strong earnings momentum, and said it was expecting a modest pullback in the third quarter that could create an opportunity to buy the dip. The Wall Street brokerage is leaning more towards its bull case of the benchmark S&P 500 hitting 7,200 points by the middle of the year, it wrote in a note. In May, the brokerage said the S&P 500 was expected to hit 6,500 in the second quarter of 2026. 'With earnings on solid footing into next year and the Fed closer to cutting rates, valuations can remain supported around current levels (~22x) as we think about the 12-month outlook,' Morgan Stanley equity strategists led by Michael Wilson said. However, the brokerage said rising Treasury yields - especially the 10-year note US10YT=RR breaching above 4.5% - could increase rate sensitivity for equities and an underperformance of rate-sensitive stocks such as small caps. Morgan Stanley also expects tariff-related cost pressures to show up later this year, which could impact company margins and bump up inflation, leading to a change in rate cut expectations by the Federal Reserve. Lastly, it estimates that seasonal trends may hit stocks in from mid-July through August. However, the brokerage said it would buy the dips as the risks could be temporary and only lead to a mild consolidation. Jefferies also raised its S&P 500 year-end target to 5,600 from its previous forecast of 5,300, according to the brokerage's note published on Friday.
