Robinhood Stock Tokens vs Ondo vs xStocks
All three track US shares on-chain, and each comes from a different issuer under its own legal terms. Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited, a Robinhood entity, issues Robinhood Stock Tokens, Ondo Global Markets of Ondo Stocks, and Backed of xStocks. They differ in what you legally hold, how dividends work, which chains they live on and who can access them. Since 27 Oct 2026, Ondo Stocks and Robinhood Stock Tokens both trade on Robinhood Chain.
We cover all three side by side on each stock page, priced against the share. We have no partnership with any issuer.
What is the difference between the three?
The issuer, the legal wrapper and the access rules. Each token is a claim defined by its issuer's terms, so two AAPL tokens can carry different rights even when they track the same share.

Who issues Robinhood Stock Tokens, and what do I own?
Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited, a Robinhood entity, issues them as tokenized debt securities, and its terms define what a holder has (docs.robinhood.com/rhj/faq, read 3 Nov 2026). The Classic Stock Tokens in Robinhood's EU app are a separate product: derivative contracts with Robinhood Europe, UAB, that can't be sent to other wallets. Robinhood describes Stock Tokens in its chain docs and support pages, including how corporate actions are handled.
Robinhood Stock Tokens aren't available to U.S. persons. Read the issuer's terms for the exact rights before relying on any summary, ours included.
Ondo Stocks vs xStocks: how do they differ?
Both are issued outside Robinhood and live on several chains. Ondo uses a multiplier that grows as dividends are reinvested (docs.ondo.finance, read 2 Nov 2026), and secondary sources describe xStocks, issued by Backed, as tracker certificates; Backed's base prospectus is the place to confirm the structure (mexc, read 2 Nov 2026).
Which one suits a person depends on their country, chain and needs. We don't rank issuers.
Do tokenized stocks give voting rights?
Usually not directly. Token holders generally don't vote at the company's meetings the way registered shareholders do, and each issuer's terms say what happens with votes and other corporate actions (Robinhood corporate actions page, read 2 Nov 2026).
If voting matters to you, read the issuer's terms first.
Which tokenized stocks are backed 1:1 by shares?
Issuers say their tokens are backed by underlying shares held for them, and each describes its own custody setup. Backing claims are the issuer's, and we can't audit custody from the chain.
What we can check is the address. A token on the issuer's list is the issuer's token. A lookalike has no backing at all.
What is the multiplier on a stock token?
A number that sets how much of one share a single token represents. Ondo applies a multiplier that rises as dividends are reinvested, so one token can stand for slightly more than one share over time.
We divide by the multiplier before comparing prices. Without that step, a token can look like it trades at a premium when it doesn't.
Which issuer is the largest?
Market size moves weekly. rwa.xyz tracks assets and holders per tokenized stock issuer (app.rwa.xyz/stocks, read 2 Nov 2026), and our stock pages show per-issuer pool liquidity on Robinhood Chain.
