# Buy Tokenized Stocks and FX Tokens Onchain

> Own a token that follows a share price or a currency, held in your own wallet, and learn why the version you pick matters as much as the price you pay.

By the end of this guide you will have found a tokenized stock or FX token, picked the version with real liquidity on the right chain, and swapped into it so it sits in your own wallet.

A **tokenized stock** is a token that tracks a share price. It is not the share: rights, redemption and dividends depend on the issuer, and some give no legal claim on the underlying. An **FX token** is usually a stablecoin tied to a currency other than the dollar. Both trade like any other token: on Solana through Jupiter, on EVM chains through Relay. If you want leverage instead of holding a token, see [Stock and FX perps](https://docs.openfinance.tech/guides/hyperliquid-stock-perps.md).

## What you need

* Funds on the chain where the token you want lives, plus gas. You will find out which chain in step 1.
* Time to read the issuer's terms, including where the token is available.

## Steps

**1. Find every version of the token**

```text theme={"system"}
Search for tokenized NVDA tokens on Solana, Base and Ethereum. For each match show the issuer if known, chain, contract address, price, market cap, liquidity and 24 hour volume.
```

The same stock can exist as several tokens from different issuers on different chains.

Tokenized versions of one stock across chains, with liquidity for each

**2. Pick the one with real liquidity**

Prefer the version with the deepest liquidity and steady volume. Compare its price with the stock's own price; a large gap means the pool is thin or the price is stale. Open the chart link the agent gives you and confirm the contract.

**3. Read the issuer's terms**

Check what the token gives you, how dividends are handled, and whether it is offered where you live. OpenFinance shows you the token; the issuer sets its rules.

**4. Fund that chain (moves money)**

```text theme={"system"}
I want to buy that token on Solana. Do I have enough USDC or SOL there? If not, bridge 100 USDC from Base to Solana. Quote first.
```

See [Move funds between chains](https://docs.openfinance.tech/guides/move-funds-between-chains.md).

**5. Get a quote**

```text theme={"system"}
Quote buying 100 dollars of that NVDA token with USDC. Show output, price impact and route. Do not execute yet.
```

On Solana, say "with USDC" if you want to pay in USDC; otherwise the other side defaults to SOL.

**6. Swap (moves money)**

Reply yes if the token address and amounts match. Onchain swaps cannot be reversed.

**7. Check the holding**

```text theme={"system"}
Show my holdings on Solana with dollar values.
```

Every swap needs your confirmation, and nothing here is financial advice.

## FX tokens

The flow is the same. Start with a search:

```text theme={"system"}
Find euro stablecoins on Base and Solana with the most liquidity. Show issuer, address and liquidity.
```

Then quote, confirm and check, as above.

## Spot token or perp

If you are still choosing between holding a token and trading a perp, these are the main differences:

| | Tokenized stock or FX token | Stock or FX perp on Hyperliquid |
| - | - | - |
| You hold | A token in your own wallet | A leveraged position |
| Leverage and funding | No | Yes |
| Liquidation risk | No, price risk only | Yes |
| Where | Solana and EVM chains | Hyperliquid HIP-3 markets |

## Check it worked

* The token in your wallet has the contract address you chose in step 2.
* The value roughly tracks the stock or currency it follows.

## Common mistakes

* **Buying the thinnest version.** A token with little liquidity can trade far from the stock price, and selling can cost more than buying.
* **Assuming shareholder rights.** Read the issuer's terms.
* **Funding the wrong chain.** USDC on Base cannot pay for a swap on Solana until you bridge it.
* **Checking one chain for holdings.** Ask the agent to check every chain, including Robinhood Chain if you hold tokens there.
