A Digital Trader’s Thoughts

If you are used to trading BTC and ETH with USDT, have you ever thought about whether you can trade Apple, Tesla, or even the Nasdaq ETF in the same way? The reality is that traditional stock trading is often constrained by multiple factors such as account opening thresholds, trading hours, and regional restrictions. This is especially true for digital asset investors, as the process is cumbersome and heavily restricted.

The xStocks section launched by Gate is a response to this kind of “fragmented trading experience.”

The changes brought by the xStocks section

The xStocks section is an innovative platform that combines stock market targets with the operational logic of digital assets. There is no need for a broker account, no restrictions on trading hours, and no reliance on fiat currency deposits. You only need to have USDT to directly participate in perpetual contract trading of popular stocks such as Apple (AAPLX), Google (GOOGLX), and Amazon (AMZNX).

This mechanism not only reshapes the trading methods of traditional stocks but also provides digital users with an unprecedented cross-border experience.

How to understand “stock tokens”?

The trading target of xStocks is “stock token contracts”, which are supported by professional asset management institutions (such as Backed) and use blockchain technology to anchor the market price of real stocks.

For example: GOOGLX represents the stock price trend of Google Inc. When you trade GOOGLX/USDT perpetual contracts on Gate, its price is highly correlated with the actual stock price of Google. This method does not require you to actually “own” the stock, but rather to participate in price fluctuations through a contract mechanism. It is no longer a traditional investment method, but a tool for asset strategy tailored to the digital age.

There are various contract gameplay options to seize volatility opportunities.

Unlike traditional stocks that can only be bought in a bullish market, xStocks contracts allow you to make long and short decisions based on market conditions.

• Bullish? Go long
• Bearish? Short selling
• Not much capital? Add some leverage.

xStocks contracts support 1-10 times leverage, and all transactions are settled in USDT, allowing you to operate flexibly within the same asset account.

Recently launched assets include:

• MSTRX (MicroStrategy)
• QQQX (Nasdaq ETF)
• SPYX (Low Carbon S&P)
• TSLAX (Tesla) etc.

Covering leading technology stocks to sector indices, with abundant opportunities and free trading.

The activities are numerous, and the entry threshold is low, making it suitable for beginners to try out.

The xStocks section not only has fun products, but also offers plenty of benefits. Currently, Gate is launching a series of limited-time activities suitable for new users.

• Daily trading compliance can earn up to 100 USDT.
• The continuous challenge reward has been increased to 200 USDT.
• New users receive a contract coupon + platform tokens for their first order.
• There are also recharge rebates, lotteries, trading volume ranking competitions, and more.

These rewards have no high thresholds; just by participating, you have the chance to obtain them. This is very friendly for users who want to try stock contracts but do not want to invest too much at once.

Summary: Next-generation trading habits begin here

The xStocks section is not just a simple product module, but a cross-border exploration: bringing the efficiency and flexibility of the digital world into the traditional asset field. Whether you are a trader coming from the crypto world or an observer interested in global tech stocks, xStocks offers a new entry point.

Now, why not start with a transaction of GOOGLX or AMZNX to personally experience the future possibilities of “trading stocks digitally.”
