xStocks

Some users, after experiencing Hotcoin xStocks (Tokenized U.S. Stocks), often have this concern:

“I bought GOOGLX (Google’s tokenized stock). Could it suddenly be delisted one day?”
“If it gets delisted, do I have to sell it immediately, or I’ll lose money?”

Let’s break it down clearly for you from three perspectives: compliance mechanisms, product logic, and delisting risks.

What Are xStocks?

On the Hotcoin platform, xStocks are innovative financial products that tokenize traditional stocks. Each xStock, such as GOOGLX, TSLAX, AAPLX, or NVDAX, represents the price mapping of a real U.S. stock asset. In other words:

  • It’s not a traditional stock, but a tokenized asset pegged to the real stock’s market price.
  • It allows investors to trade traditional stock price movements around the clock in the crypto market.
  • Users don’t need a brokerage account or complex paperwork to access the world’s top-quality equity assets.

This is the core value of xStocks, allowing ordinary users to invest in Wall Street through the Web3 world.

xStocks Delisting Mechanism

First, let’s make one thing clear: xStocks are compliance-driven products and will not be delisted easily. Hotcoin conducts strict compliance reviews for every xStock before and during its listing, ensuring that each product operates safely, transparently, and in accordance with international standards. The review covers:

  • Data Source Compliance — Price data must come from legitimate and publicly available markets.
  • Market Stability — Ensures sufficient trading depth and accurate price linkage.
  • Regional Regulatory Restrictions — Adheres to local financial and digital asset regulations in all supported jurisdictions.
  • Partner Compliance — If third-party data providers or settlement institutions face policy changes, Hotcoin immediately re-evaluates the potential impact.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, xStocks will not be delisted.

When Could Delisting Happen?

Although the chances are very low, certain exceptional situations, usually tied to risk management or legal compliance, may lead Hotcoin to temporarily suspend or delist a specific xStock. These include:

1. Changes in Upstream Compliance Environment

If regulators in a particular region adjust their policies, for example, introducing new licensing requirements for tokenized stock products, or halting data services due to jurisdictional policy shifts, then Hotcoin may temporarily suspend affected xStock trading pairs to protect user funds and ensure full compliance.

2. Underlying Stock Events

If the original stock represented by the xStock (e.g., Tesla, Google, etc.) experiences major market events such as: Suspension of trading, Mergers or acquisitions, Stock splits, or Delisting in traditional markets, Hotcoin will take appropriate actions (which may include temporary delisting or adjustments) to maintain fairness and pricing accuracy.

3. Technical Upgrades and System Maintenance

In rare cases, to improve price aggregation precision and on-chain synchronization efficiency, Hotcoin may temporarily close a trading pair for upgrades or optimization. This type of downtime is short-term maintenance and does not affect user asset security.

What Happens If Delisting Occurs?

Hotcoin always puts users first. If a delisting truly becomes necessary, Hotcoin will:

Announce in Advance — Notify users through the “Announcement Center” and via email several days beforehand.
Provide Ample Time to Sell or Close Positions — Users can freely trade or exit during the notice period.
Maintain Transparency Throughout — All trading data and settlement records will remain fully visible and verifiable.

In short, there will be no sudden delisting or disappearance of assets.
