Gate Research Institute: Stock tokenization drives RWA into a new era

Odaily Planet Daily News: Gate Research Institute has released its latest research report "Arbitrage and Investment Opportunities in the Wave of Stock tokenization", which points out that stock tokenization maps traditional stocks into on chain tokens through blockchain technology, with advantages such as tradable, divisible, and 7 × 24-hour trading, and is becoming an important part of the digitization of real-world assets (RWA). There are three main implementation models in the current market: third-party custody+exchange access (such as Gate xStocks), licensed broker proprietary links, and contract for difference (CFD) models. Professional investors can profit in the stock token market through three major strategies: hedging arbitrage between spot and token markets, cross platform arbitrage between different platforms, and information arbitrage based on trading time differences. For individual investors, stock tokenization provides more diverse asset allocation options, including fragmented purchases of top stocks, more flexible trading times, and lower transaction costs. However, stock tokenization still faces multiple risks such as price detachment, oracle failure, and unclear legal supervision. Investors should maintain a cautious attitude and reasonably control risks. The tokenization of stocks tokenizes the value of traditional enterprises on the blockchain, which is not only an important trend in the digitalization of global capital markets, but also brings new arbitrage and allocation opportunities for professional and individual investors. With the gradual clarification of regulatory policies in the future, this track is expected to continue to develop.
