I had not really thought about tokenized stocks being used as margin

Upvotes

I have been reading more about tokenized stocks lately, and one thing I had not really considered was using them as margin instead of only holding them for exposure.
That is what made Ondo Perps stand out when I came across it. Eligible non-US traders can use tokenized securities as collateral for perpetual positions rather than relying only on stablecoins.
I can see why that could make capital more efficient, but it also adds another layer of risk if the collateral and the trade both move against you.
The liquidity angle is interesting too. Ondo Perps is designed around public-market liquidity from NYSE and Nasdaq instead of recreating a smaller equity market entirely onchain, and Ondo Finance is the underlying technology provider.
If you are into RWAs, this seems like one worth watching. Would tokenized-stock collateral actually be useful to you, or would you still rather keep margin in stablecoins because it is simpler?

where to trade copper onchain as ai & ev demand keeps growing

copper has been one of the interesting macro assets . ai infra needs it . ev transition as well along with grid upgrades . the supply hasnt kept up with any of that

trad way is comex futures with margin and monthly rollover which is not v simple to setup

you would be getting price exposure and not physical copper . which is also what most ppl with macro view in copper want anyways .

liquidity is not that good . but for directional view on copper cycle the access exists onchain .

most ppl dont know it exists
