How it works

Coinbase has signalled a tokenized-stock product aimed at users outside the US. No live trading is available at the time of writing, so the mechanics below the headline remain to be confirmed.

Pros

  • Backed by a large, US-listed regulated exchange
  • Aimed at non-US retail access
  • Likely strong liquidity at launch

Cons

  • Not live yet — no confirmed details
  • Tokenized, so unlikely to confer direct ownership
  • US users are not included
