What Are Reality rTokens?

Reality is a real-world asset (RWA) protocol that issues onchain tokenized representations of U.S. stocks and ETFs. These tokens are known as rTokens.
Each rToken is linked to a specific underlying asset. For example:
  • rNVDA — provides economic exposure to NVIDIA stock.
  • rSPY — provides economic exposure to the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY).
Supported rTokens can be managed alongside other digital assets in the same self-custodial wallet.

How Do Reality Tokenized Stocks Work?

Reality rTokens connect underlying U.S. securities with onchain tokens:
  1. The underlying stock or ETF is held in custody. The corresponding security is held with Alpaca Securities.
  2. Reality issues the related rToken onchain. Each rToken corresponds to a specific underlying asset.
  3. The rToken can then be accessed onchain. Eligible users can manage supported Reality rTokens through Bitget Wallet.

Reality rTokens vs. Traditional Stocks

A Reality rToken gives you economic exposure to a corresponding U.S. stock or ETF through an onchain token.
It is different from holding registered shares through a traditional brokerage account:
 
Aspect Reality rToken Traditional shares
How you hold it Onchain token Registered security
Voting rights Not part of the rToken structure May apply to eligible shareholders
Dividends & corporate actions Handled through Reality's mechanism where supported Handled through the traditional brokerage and issuer process
In short, rTokens bring exposure to U.S. stocks and ETFs onchain, while their ownership and asset-event structure differs from traditional shares.

Are Reality rTokens Backed by Real U.S. Stocks and ETFs?

Reality states that each rToken is backed 1:1 by its corresponding U.S. stock or ETF.
The underlying securities are held with Alpaca Securities, a licensed U.S. broker-dealer regulated by FINRA and an SIPC member.
Reality also states that its reserve ratio is maintained above 100%, meaning the reserve framework is designed to hold more value in underlying assets than the value of rTokens issued.
The 1:1 backing describes the relationship between the rToken and its corresponding underlying asset. It does not mean rToken holders become registered shareholders of the underlying stock.

What Is Reality Proof of Reserves?

Proof of Reserves (PoR) provides transparency into the assets supporting tokenized products.
Reality states that its reserves are audited daily by an independent third-party CPA and maintained above 100%.
PoR helps users understand how rToken backing is structured. It does not eliminate risks related to price movements, liquidity, network availability, or regulatory restrictions.
