The on-chain tokens of the same stock often have more than one version—versions issued by exchanges and those by professional issuers, each running on different chains with different custody arrangements. Whether researching this asset, understanding its structural information, or simply wanting to find out "who is behind this version," the first step is the same: to find out its issuer and custody information.

Who is this article suitable for?

  • Analysts and researchers who study individual assets and need to verify the issuance structure;
  • Media authors following tokenized assets;
  • Investors holding tokens who want to understand the versions they hold.

Query path: Search for the asset → Detail page → Tokenized stock asset module

Open Tokenized asset dashboard , search for the asset name to enter the detail page—taking QQQ as an example, the "Tokenized stock asset" module displays all versions of the same asset side by side: the issuer, the chain, the price, the issuance volume, and AUM for each version. The question you asked, "which ones have been issued and where are they custodied," this screen is the query entry.

After finding it, check what

the issuer is. The issuer names in the version list distinguish between exchange self-issued versions and professional issuer versions. The public information of the issuer is the first layer of material to understand the background of the version.

Where it is issued on which chain. The choice of chain is related to the user base and transfer costs of that version; the liquidity conditions may differ for the same issuer's versions on multiple chains.

Issuance volume and AUM. The specific meanings of these two numbers vary depending on the product structure design, and should be interpreted according to the issuer's documents.

Custody arrangements. This is an important aspect of understanding the version structure: which institution is custodian of the underlying stocks, and how reserve proofs are published. The issuer information on the page is aggregated, and custody details should be verified according to the official disclosures of the issuer—after finding the issuer's name, it is recommended to check their official website for the latest custody and reserve announcements.

Price differences between versions. When prices of various versions are displayed side by side, if a certain version consistently differs from others, it may be caused by liquidity, redemption arrangements, and other factors, and should be judged in conjunction with issuer information; when citing price data, the version being cited should be specified.

Usage restrictions

  • Issuer and custody information should be based on official disclosures; the page data is used for aggregated display and query entry; field definitions can be found in Tokenized asset methodology , frequently asked questions can be found in Tokenized asset FAQ ;
  • Multiple version comparisons do not constitute a recommendation for any issuer; this article does not constitute investment advice.

From the detail page, find the issuer of the version you hold

Open Tokenized asset dashboard , search for the asset you are interested in or hold, and find the corresponding version in the "Tokenized stock asset" module on the detail page—issuer, chain, issuance volume, and AUM, all clarified at once. After confirming the issuer, check its trading situation on various exchanges, see "How to find the latest trading situation of a certain tokenized asset on various exchanges?" which is part of the Tokenized asset section research methodology series.

"What traditional assets are already on-chain?" — This is the first question that every researcher entering this field must answer, but the complete answer is not found in the popular rankings: beyond the leading assets, there are also a large number of long-tail assets covering sectors such as technology, finance, consumption, and healthcare.

Tokenized stocks are considered RWA (Real World Assets). They include several subcategories, such as: 1. **Equity Tokens**: Represent ownership in a company. 2. **Debt Tokens**: Represent loans or bonds issued by companies. 3. **Real Estate Tokens**: Represent ownership or shares in real estate properties. 4. **Commodity Tokens**: Represent physical commodities like gold or oil. 5. **Art Tokens**: Represent ownership in artworks or collectibles.

"Tokenized assets" is a broad term that can encompass many things—but the first step in research is to distinguish: tokenized stocks, tokenized U.S. Treasuries, and tokenized gold, while similar in name, are three types of products with significant differences in product structure, holder structure, and trading venues. Mixing them together for statistics is a common classification issue in RWA research.

What is the market size of tokenized assets? How to distinguish between different metrics?

The opening question of the RWA industry report is "How big is this market?" However, the market size of tokenized assets is precisely the figure that is most prone to inconsistent definitions: issuance volume, TVL, AUM, and transaction volume each answer different questions. Mixing or solely using any one of these can lead to distorted conclusions. This article breaks down several commonly used metrics for easier reference according to research questions.

Which tokenized sectors are heating up? The ratio of rising to falling tokens is more honest than the rise of a single token.

"The tokenization of AI concept assets and the return of funds" — the value of such trend judgments is far greater than the movements of a single underlying asset, but it requires evidence at the sector level. How can we prove that a sector is heating up? A significant rise in a leading token is not enough; the proportion of rising assets within the sector is a more honest metric. The asset label map of the tokenized asset dashboard, which categorizes asset quantity and price fluctuation distribution across more than 20 sectors such as growth stocks, large-cap stocks, AI, and semiconductors, serves as a tool for making this judgment.
