What is xStocks Dual Asset? Earn yield from your view on tokenized stocks

Crypto investors increasingly want exposure to traditional stocks without leaving their crypto ecosystem. xStocks Dual Asset is Bybit's non-principal-protected structured yield product that lets you turn your market view on tokenized stocks into yield opportunities. With this launch, Bybit becomes the first centralized exchange to introduce tokenized stocks as the underlying assets for a Dual Asset structured yield product. This article covers how it works, which xStocks are supported and who can use it.

Key Takeaways:

• xStocks Dual Asset is a non-principal-protected structured yield product that uses selected tokenized stocks as underlying assets.

• Users choose an xStock pair, target price and investment period to pursue yield based on their market view.

• At expiry, settlement depends on the selected strategy, target price and final settlement price, so users may receive either USDT or the selected xStock.

What is xStocks Dual Asset?

xStocks Dual Asset extends Bybit's existing Dual Asset product by introducing tokenized stocks as a new underlying asset class. The core mechanism stays the same. You subscribe with one asset, set a target price and earn yield over a fixed period. At settlement, the outcome depends on the relationship between the settlement price and your target price.You can use xStocks Dual Asset to earn yield while waiting for a preferred buy price, earn yield while waiting for a preferred sell price or build exposure to selected tokenized stocks. The trade-off is that settlement may occur in a different asset than you originally subscribed with. This product is non-principal-protected, meaning your total return isn't guaranteed.xStocks are tokenized stock products available on Bybit that are designed to provide blockchain-based exposure to selected publicly listed companies.

How does xStocks Dual Asset work?

Because xStocks Dual Asset is non-principal-protected, the asset you receive at settlement may be worth less than your original investment. The product offers two strategies: Buy Low and Sell High. Each has different subscription requirements and settlement outcomes.

Buy Low

You subscribe with USDT and set a target price below the current xStock price.

• If Settlement Price ≤ Target Price: the selected xStock is purchased at the target price using your subscription amount and interest income.

• If Settlement Price > Target Price: the xStock isn't purchased. You receive your subscription amount and interest income in USDT.

Example (Buy Low with NVDAX):Suppose NVDAX is trading at 150 USDT. You subscribe 1,000 USDT with a target price of 140 USDT and earn 5 USDT in interest.

• If NVDAX settles at 138 USDT (≤ 140): your 1,005 USDT buys NVDAX at the target price of 140 USDT. You receive approximately 7.18 NVDAX.

• If NVDAX settles at 155 USDT (> 140): you keep 1,005 USDT.

This example is for illustration only and does not represent actual returns.

Sell High

You subscribe with the selected xStock and set a target price above the current price.

• If Settlement Price ≥ Target Price: your xStock and interest income are sold at the target price. You receive USDT.

• If Settlement Price < Target Price: the xStock isn't sold. You receive your subscription amount and interest income in the selected xStock.

Example (Sell High with NVDAX):Suppose NVDAX is trading at 150 USDT. You subscribe 10 NVDAX with a target price of 160 USDT and earn 0.05 NVDAX in interest.

• If NVDAX settles at 165 USDT (≥ 160): your 10.05 NVDAX is sold at 160 USDT. You receive 1,608 USDT.

• If NVDAX settles at 145 USDT (< 160): you keep 10.05 NVDAX.
