FAQ
Does holding the MA token equal owning Mastercard stock?
No. You hold an issuer's (Ondo Global Markets, xStocks (Backed)) tracker instrument on the underlying stock — price exposure, not shareholder rights. Ondo Global Markets redemption: Tokens are redeemable for cash or stablecoins at the then-value of the underlying assets; no mint or burn fees; holders do not receive shareholder voting rights. xStocks (Backed) redemption: Holders who complete Backed's verification process can redeem directly with Backed at NAV (subject to additional fees); secondary holders do not receive underlying shareholder rights.

What is the difference between spot tokens and stock perpetuals?
Spot tokens track the real stock 1:1 via an issuer, without leverage; perpetuals are synthetic exposure — no issuer, no token, no redemption — with leverage and funding rates. Beginners should start with spot tokens.
