Promote with Leviathan News$1B+ of SPCXx demand hit the one bottleneck no smart contract can route around: actual primary-market allocation. xStocks can move a tokenized tracker certificate across Kraken, Bybit, Bitget Wallet and DeFi venues, but if the issuer/custodian stack canβt source the shares, users just bought a slicker refund queue. The next stress test is composability: lending markets and perps can treat tokenized equities as collateral 24/7, yet redemption risk still lives in a tradfi cap table, not on-chain inventory.
