TSLA Token Shares Drive XStocks Past $2B Daily Volume

XStocks Surpasses $2 Billion in Daily Trading Volumes

XStocks has made a significant impact in the cryptocurrency and tokenized finance space, surpassing $2 billion in daily trading volumes just over a month after its launch. This milestone positions XStocks as a strong contender in the market for tokenized shares, aiming to become the go-to standard for on-chain equity.

According to data from Dune Analytics, XStocks recorded a total of $2.025 billion in trading volume across both centralized and decentralized markets. While centralized exchanges still dominate, contributing $1.92 billion to the total, the decentralized exchange (DEX) market also plays a role, albeit a smaller one.

Kraken has emerged as the leading platform for XStocks, with the exchange becoming the primary hub for these tokenized assets. Since XStocks launched on Kraken at the end of June, it has expanded its reach to include 60 tokenized equities. As of now, the total value of all XStocks assets under management is approximately $43 million, with $8.7 million held on Kraken.

Currently, over 25,000 wallets hold XStocks, and the project is gaining traction amid other crypto trends. The potential for XStocks to become a widely accepted standard for tokenized shares is promising, especially if it can achieve greater liquidity in the future.

Tokenized TSLA Shares Lead the Way

Among the various tokenized assets, TSLAx shares have taken the lead. These tokenized shares of Tesla are the most popular for trading, having attracted over 10,000 users. The value of the tokenized TSLA shares exceeds $12 million, with more than $6.8 million in daily trading activity.

The majority of TSLAx trading occurs on platforms such as Gate, Raydium, and XT.com. However, unlike traditional tokens, XStocks are not as easily traceable. The contract addresses do not reveal information about top traders or any insider transfers between wallets.

Dune Analytics data shows that on-chain volumes have reached nearly $395 million. Despite this, the new type of asset lacks transparency. TSLAx closely mirrors the price of Tesla stock, with only a slight premium.

Interest in MSTRx, which represents MicroStrategy’s tokenized stock, follows closely behind TSLAx, though it experiences some daily fluctuations. Similarly, the tokenized version of the S&P 500 commands substantial trading volumes, although it has fewer holders compared to TSLAx.

Expansion and Future Prospects

XStocks is actively working to expand its presence across multiple protocols and platforms. Kamino Lend has added XStocks as potential collateral, but the most commonly used deposit wallets still do not include these tokens. Additionally, XStocks is spreading to smaller markets almost daily, though there is no guarantee of sustained interest or volume.

Tokenized stocks remain a relatively small portion of the broader tokenized Real World Assets (RWA) market, which is largely dominated by private debt and bonds. Approximately $400 million in stocks have been tokenized across various platforms, either for major public companies or as part of tokenized IPO initiatives.

Of this, around $375 million is in tokenized public equity, with a smaller share representing private equity. XShares has already gained a notable share of the total tokenization market within a month of launching its assets on Solana.

However, not all tokenized stocks are fully developed or liquid. Some are experimental, while others trade with very low volumes. There is currently no clear standard for reporting and reserves, as some tokenized stocks may only track the price of the underlying asset without actual reserves backing them.

As the market for tokenized shares continues to evolve, XStocks is positioning itself as a key player in this emerging space. With growing adoption and expanding partnerships, the future of tokenized equity looks increasingly promising.
