xStocks are digital representations of real company shares. The price of an xStock follows the real-time price of the underlying share on the stock market.
xStocks work well if you want to:
- Get exposure to global companies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
- Start with small amounts, since you don't need to buy a full share.
- Manage everything in one place, together with your digital assets.
Important: opening a position in xStocks on Bitso does not give you ownership of the underlying shares or of any tokens. Instead, it gives you contractual economic exposure to the price of the reference asset through Bitso.
xStocks are designed to make investing in global companies easier and more accessible, especially if you are in Latin America. You don't need to open a separate brokerage account or go through a long verification process. If you already have a Bitso account, you can start investing in xStocks right away.
When a company you hold a position in pays a dividend, Bitso may, at its discretion, reinvest it into your position through the multiplier system. This means your investment can grow over time without you having to do anything.
