Crypto exchange Bitrue has expanded its Real World Assets (RWA) lineup with the addition of 15 tokenized stocks from Ondo Finance, available for spot trading on USDT pairs. The rollout covers some of the most-watched names in traditional finance, from NVIDIA and Amazon to Tesla and MicroStrategy (which recently streamlined its branding to Strategy), giving crypto-native users direct exposure to major equity price movements without ever leaving their web3 wallets.
The launch reflects a broader shift happening across the crypto market: investors who made their money in digital assets are increasingly looking to put it to work in traditional markets too. With AI-driven momentum lifting the valuations of big tech, the appetite for bluechip equity exposure from within a crypto interface has never been higher.
What Are Ondo Finance Tokenized Stocks?
Ondo Finance is a leading RWA protocol focused on bringing institutional-grade financial products on-chain. Its tokenized stocks are digital tokens that track the price of real underlying equities, where each token is backed 1:1 by the actual share (or ETF unit) held in regulated custody.
That means when NVIDIA’s stock price moves, NVDAON moves with it. Holders don’t receive shareholder voting rights, but they do get genuine price exposure to the underlying asset, combined with the composability and accessibility of a blockchain-native token.
Each token mirrors the real-time price of its underlying equity or ETF, with the actual shares held in regulated custody to back them 1:1. Holders don’t receive shareholder voting rights or dividends in the same way a direct shareholder would, but they do get genuine price exposure to the underlying asset, combined with the composability and around-the-clock accessibility of a blockchain-native token.

The selection leans into AI-adjacent names, where NVIDIA, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon are all central players in the current AI infrastructure buildout, while Tesla, AMD, Broadcom, and Palantir round out the lineup with some of the most closely watched names in tech and AI. There are also two broad-market ETFs (SPY and QQQ) for users looking for diversified exposure rather than individual stock picks.
Several tokens will feel particularly familiar to crypto-native audiences. Circle (CRCLON) is the company behind USDC, one of the most widely used stablecoins in crypto. MicroStrategy (MSTRON) is well known in the space for its large Bitcoin treasury holdings. And Robinhood (HOODON) has made significant moves into crypto, including its acquisition of exchange Bitstamp in 2024.
All 15 tokens are available with 0 trading fees for the first 14 days of their respective launches.
Why Trade Tokenized Stocks on a Crypto Exchange?
Traditional stock trading comes with friction: market hours, broker accounts, settlement delays, and geographic restrictions. Tokenized stocks sidestep most of these:
24/7 trading: US stock markets close on weekends and holidays. Tokenized stocks don’t; you can trade NVDAON at 3am on a Sunday if you want to.
No broker required: Trades happen directly on the exchange using USDT, with no intermediary brokerage account needed.
Instant settlement: Trades settle in seconds on-chain, rather than the T+1 or T+2 timelines of traditional equity markets.
Global access: Users outside the US who face restrictions on directly purchasing US-listed equities can access the same price exposure through tokenized versions (subject to Bitrue’s own regional terms).
USDT-native: Crypto investors who already hold USDT don’t need to convert funds or move them off-platform to gain equity exposure.
As Bitrue CMO Adam O’Neill put it: users can now “tap directly into these traditional markets using their existing web3 assets, while simultaneously benefiting from blockchain-level advantages such as round-the-clock trading.”
How to Get Started
The first batch of tokenized stocks is live on both the Bitrue app and website at bitrue.com. You can search for any of the token tickers listed above and trade against your USDT balance.
For users looking to explore Bitrue’s broader TradFi lineup, the exchange recently launched a dedicated TradFi trading page covering all traditional finance assets on the platform, including gold, silver, and other commodities.
