BSPx, the tokenized equity tied to Bending Spoons, has gone live on Mantle in partnership with xStocks as issuer, marking the network’s third tokenized share listing in less than a month and tightening the link between new public listings and on-chain market access.
The launch follows the recent arrivals of SPCXx and USPXx in June, giving Mantle a rapid sequence of tokenized equities that became available shortly after their public market debuts. BSPx represents exposure to Bending Spoons, the technology company associated with major digital brands including WeTransfer, Vimeo, Evernote, and AOL.
The asset is now tradable through Fluxion, where users can access it through Atomic RFQ and AMM trading mechanisms. The structure is designed to keep pricing aligned with the underlying public equity during regular market hours while allowing trading to continue after traditional exchanges close.
The broader significance of the listing is its timing. Each of Mantle’s three recent tokenized equity launches has appeared within weeks of the related company’s public market debut. That short gap shows how tokenized equity platforms are attempting to match the pace of modern capital markets, where demand for access to newly listed companies can form quickly and spread across global trading venues.
For traders, BSPx provides blockchain-based exposure to a newly public company without waiting for a long post-IPO tokenization cycle. For issuers and infrastructure providers, the listing shows how tokenized real-world assets can be distributed with less delay between a conventional exchange listing and on-chain availability.
Why the launch matters
The arrival of BSPx adds to a growing effort to make tokenized equities operate more like mainstream financial products while retaining the around-the-clock accessibility of blockchain markets.
Tokenized equities are digital assets designed to represent shares or share-linked exposure in public companies. In this case, BSPx gives users access to a tokenized version of Bending Spoons equity through xStocks and Mantle’s network infrastructure. The product sits within a wider group of xStocks assets already supported by Fluxion, including TSLAx, NVDAx, AAPLx, METAx, GOOGLx, MSTRx, SPCXx, USPXx, and now BSPx.
The launch also comes shortly after Bending Spoons’ public market debut. The company’s stock closed its first day of trading on Nasdaq at $40.50, nearly 40% above its $29 IPO price, before seeing a moderate pullback in later trading. That early price action reflects the kind of volatility and demand that often surrounds high-profile listings, especially companies with recognizable consumer or enterprise technology assets.
By bringing BSPx on-chain soon after the IPO, Mantle and xStocks are positioning tokenized equities as a near-real-time extension of public market access rather than a delayed secondary product. That distinction matters because tokenized stock products have often faced criticism for limited availability, uncertain liquidity, and slow rollout schedules after major market events.
In this case, Mantle is trying to show that on-chain distribution can follow the traditional IPO calendar closely enough to remain relevant to active traders.
How trading works on Fluxion
BSPx trades on Fluxion through a hybrid model that combines Atomic RFQ execution with AMM-based trading.
During live market hours, Atomic RFQ, or Request for Quote, is used to help maintain price parity with the underlying public security. This mechanism is intended to keep tokenized equity pricing anchored to the live price of the stock during the periods when traditional exchanges are open and price discovery is deepest.
After regular equity market hours end, automated market maker execution takes over. This allows trading in BSPx and other supported xStocks assets to continue beyond the closing bell. The result is a market structure that blends traditional stock price reference points with the continuous trading environment of decentralized finance.
That around-the-clock format is one of the main selling points of tokenized equities. Conventional stock exchanges operate on fixed schedules, while blockchain networks run continuously. By using AMM liquidity after traditional markets close, Fluxion gives traders a way to react to news, sentiment shifts, and broader market developments outside standard exchange hours.
However, after-hours tokenized equity trading also introduces different market dynamics. When the underlying stock market is closed, pricing depends more heavily on liquidity pools, available market depth, and trader expectations about where the underlying share may open during the next session. That can create opportunities, but it can also increase short-term mispricing or volatility.
Fluxion’s model attempts to balance both worlds. Atomic RFQ supports alignment when official market prices are available, while AMM trading keeps the token active when those reference markets are closed.
Rewards aim to deepen liquidity
The BSPx launch is also tied to a dual-reward structure designed to encourage trading activity and liquidity provision across xStocks assets on Fluxion.
Every verified xStocks trade in the Fluxion ecosystem generates xPoints. These points accrue daily through token holding and liquidity provision across supported assets, including the newest addition, BSPx. The same program also applies to tokens such as TSLAx, NVDAx, AAPLx, METAx, GOOGLx, MSTRx, SPCXx, and USPXx.
Fluxion is adding another incentive layer through a separate allocation of 1 million Fluxion Points. These points are distributed based on trading activity and pooled liquidity supplied by users.
Liquidity providers who deposit eligible tokens into supported pools can earn from both reward systems while also receiving returns from trading fees. This combination creates a broader incentive package for users who help maintain liquidity across xStocks markets on Mantle.
The reward design is important because liquidity is one of the central challenges for tokenized equities. A token can provide exposure to a public company, but without sufficient liquidity, spreads can widen, execution quality can weaken, and larger trades can become difficult to complete efficiently.
By rewarding both trading and liquidity provision, Fluxion is trying to build activity on both sides of the market. Active traders bring volume, while liquidity providers help support smoother execution. The structure may also encourage users to hold tokenized equities within the ecosystem rather than moving capital elsewhere after an initial trade.
The role of Mantle
Mantle is positioning itself as a distribution and connectivity layer between institutional finance and blockchain-based liquidity. The network reports more than $4 billion in community-owned assets and supports a range of products and partnerships across decentralized finance and real-world asset tokenization.
Its ecosystem includes projects such as mETH, fBTC, and MI4. Mantle also has relationships with issuers and protocols including Ethena USDe, Ondo USDY, and OP-Succinct. The addition of BSPx, SPCXx, and USPXx expands that real-world asset focus into newly listed equities.
Bao, Mantle’s key advisor, said the network is building a foundation for tokenized markets to function at the same speed as traditional exchanges. The comment reflects a central theme behind the latest listings: tokenized markets are no longer aiming only to replicate older financial products on-chain, but to compress the timeline between public listing and digital availability.
Mantle’s decentralized finance ecosystem has also been growing. The network surpassed $1 billion in total value locked across its DeFi applications in the first half of 2026, according to the article’s figures. Recent on-chain activity has shown rising interest from larger market participants, with transactions above $100,000 on Mantle reaching a six-month high this week. That trend has been linked to the network’s increasing focus on real-world assets.
The BSPx launch therefore fits into a broader expansion strategy. Mantle is not only adding another tokenized stock; it is trying to establish itself as a venue where real-world assets can be issued, traded, and supported with liquidity shortly after they become available in traditional markets.
Demand for tokenized shares grows
The market backdrop for tokenized equities has become more active as traders look for blockchain-native access to familiar public companies and high-profile private-to-public transitions.
Earlier this year, a tokenized version of SpaceX helped push on-chain trading volumes for these products to a record $4.3 billion over a 30-day period, according to the provided figures. That surge demonstrated significant appetite for tokenized exposure to companies with strong name recognition and limited conventional access points.
Bending Spoons fits into a similar category in a different way. The company has built its profile through ownership or association with widely used digital platforms. WeTransfer, Vimeo, Evernote, and AOL are familiar names across productivity, media, file transfer, and internet services. That brand recognition may increase interest in BSPx among traders who follow technology listings and newly public software-related firms.
The timing also matters. New listings often attract attention in their first weeks of trading, when valuation debates are most active and price discovery remains unsettled. By making tokenized exposure available during that window, Mantle and xStocks are attempting to capture demand while the underlying equity is still a fresh market story.
This is a meaningful shift from earlier tokenized stock cycles, where products sometimes appeared long after the main market event had passed. Faster issuance makes tokenized equities more relevant to active traders, especially those who operate across both centralized and decentralized venues.
Operational risks remain
Despite the momentum, tokenized equity markets still face operational and liquidity challenges. One of the clearest examples came during the high-demand launch of SPCXx, when the issuer could not secure enough traditional shares to satisfy all on-chain subscription requests. That shortfall led to some failed allocations.
The episode highlighted a key issue for tokenized real-world assets: the digital token may trade on-chain, but the backing, sourcing, custody, and settlement of the underlying exposure remain tied to traditional market infrastructure. If demand for the token exceeds the issuer’s access to the underlying shares, availability can become constrained.
That risk is especially relevant for newly public companies, where share supply can be limited, lockup structures may apply, and early trading demand can be intense. Tokenized equity platforms must therefore manage not only blockchain execution but also off-chain sourcing and compliance requirements.
Price alignment is another issue to watch. During regular market hours, RFQ systems can help maintain parity with the underlying stock. Outside market hours, however, AMM trading may reflect expectations rather than official exchange prices. This can lead to temporary gaps between the tokenized asset and the next available public market print.
These risks do not erase the value of the product, but they shape how traders may use it. Tokenized equities can offer flexibility, speed, and global access, but they also require careful attention to liquidity, issuer capacity, market hours, and the mechanics of the underlying backing.
Where the market goes next
Mantle plans to continue listing new tokenized equities as they emerge in the primary market. If the network keeps matching on-chain availability with the traditional IPO calendar, it could become a more important venue for traders seeking fast access to newly listed companies through blockchain rails.
The launch of BSPx shows how quickly the market structure is evolving. In less than a month, Mantle has added three tokenized equities linked to recent public listings. That pace suggests a shift from occasional tokenized stock launches toward a more systematic pipeline.
For Fluxion, the key test will be whether its hybrid trading model can maintain reliable execution as more assets are added and volumes grow. For xStocks, the challenge will be ensuring that issuance, backing, and access to underlying shares can keep up with demand. For Mantle, the opportunity is to become a central infrastructure layer for real-world assets that require both liquidity and fast distribution.
BSPx is therefore more than another token listing. It is part of a broader experiment in whether public equity exposure can move on-chain almost as quickly as a company begins trading on Nasdaq or another major exchange.
If successful, the model could narrow the gap between traditional capital markets and decentralized finance. If demand continues to rise, the next phase will depend on whether tokenized equity providers can scale operations without sacrificing price alignment, liquidity quality, or user confidence.
For now, BSPx gives Mantle another proof point in its push to connect IPO-era market demand with blockchain-native trading access. The launch reinforces a broader trend: tokenized markets are moving closer to the speed, relevance, and timing of conventional exchanges, while offering the continuous access that traditional venues still do not provide.
