Bybit to offer tokenized SpaceX IPO access through xStocks

Eligible Bybit users can subscribe to tokenized SpaceX IPO shares through xStocks, a Kraken-linked framework that brings public market offerings to crypto exchanges.

Bybit is joining a growing list of crypto exchange platforms allowing eligible users to subscribe to tokenized shares in US initial public offerings at the offering price, beginning with a SpaceX listing through the xStocks framework.

Kraken parent Payward Services’ xStocks framework aggregates investor demand across partner platforms and works with underwriting syndicates to secure IPO allocations before tokenizing the shares.

Eligible users can register interest and submit subscription requests for tokenized IPO shares through Bybit, with allocations distributed on a pro-rata basis and unused funds refunded if demand exceeds available shares. SpaceX will be the first offering, with tokenized shares scheduled to begin trading on Bybit’s spot market on June 12.
