Kraken and Backed Bring Tokenized Stocks to the Tron Network

Kraken and tokenization firm Backed are expanding their tokenized equities product, xStocks, to the Tron blockchain. This move, announced on Wednesday, brings the offering to a third network after its launch on Solana and BNB Chain.

The xStocks product provides 24/7 trading and fractional ownership of tokenized versions of popular stocks like Apple, Nvidia, and Tesla. These tokens are issued by Backed as compliant, fully-backed debt instruments.

Since their launch in late June, xStocks have already generated over $2.5 billion in combined trading volume on both centralized and decentralized exchanges, showing strong early adoption. This expansion is a collaboration with TRON DAO and Backed.
