Nepal Investor Scores Big with Tokenized Apple Stock on Base Blockchain
Nepal-based investor @_Auza_ has achieved significant returns on their investment in tokenized Apple stock, purchased through the Base blockchain platform. The user bought $600 worth of tokenized shares using USDC (a stablecoin) on Coinbase Wallet and now sits at a profit of 7.7% or an additional 50 USDC.
Jesse Pollak highlighted this development as proof that on-chain tokenized stocks can provide access to users blocked from direct U.S. equity markets, allowing for immediate portfolio movement without traditional brokerage accounts. The iPhone announcement day turned into an opportunity for the investor, demonstrating the potential of decentralized finance (DeFi) solutions.
Base, a blockchain platform, collaborated with Oak Currency and 0xCity3 on the Web3 NFT project Base Builder #001. This innovation enables users to access tokenized stocks, which are digital representations of traditional shares, through various wallets and exchanges, including Coinbase Wallet.
