Stock-backed launches

Launch a token with something underneath it.

Robinhood put equities onchain. Stockback treats those positions as the reserve behind a new token: the stock is the backing, the token is the exposure layer.

Diagram of the model. Tickers are illustrative — no such token exists on Stockback, and no market data is shown.
01

Most launches start from nothing.

A token normally begins with no asset behind it — its price is whatever the market decides in the absence of a reference. A stock-backed launch begins from a position that already exists onchain.

Unbacked launch

Token

No reserve

Nothing is held against the supply. There is no asset to reference.

Stock-backed launch

Reserve
Tokenized stock

The reserve holds an onchain equity position. The token is a simpler, tradable claim on that exposure.

02

One stock, or a basket.

A backed token can reference a single underlying or several. The composition is the product.
