As Wall Street’s largest companies prepare to report quarterly earnings, crypto exchange Bitrue is offering investors a different reason to pay attention to their stocks, a fixed 7% annual yield that has nothing to do with corporate profits at all.

According to Bitrue, this makes it the first exchange to launch what it calls “AI Tokenized Stocks Earn,” a product that pays a flat 7% annualized return on tokenized shares of eight companies, including Apple, Tesla, Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta and SpaceX.

The launch comes as Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta and Amazon prepare to report results between July 22 and July 30, a stretch of earnings that analysts have called a test of whether massive AI infrastructure spending is paying off. 

Nvidia, also included in Bitrue’s lineup, is not expected to report until late August, according to earnings trackers.

What is Bitrue actually offering?

The tokens, branded with an “ON” suffix such as AAPLON, NVDAON, SPCXON, GOOGLON, AMZNON, and TSLAON, among others, are designed to track the price of the underlying stock while paying a yield that dwarfs what the real companies pay shareholders.

Apple’s dividend yield sits near 0.32%, Microsoft’s near 0.92%, Alphabet’s 0.25%, and Meta’s yield is reportedly between 0.3% and 0.4%. Tesla and Amazon pay no dividend at all, and Bitrue’s 7% tokenized yield rate would represent the first return either stock’s exposure has ever generated beyond price movement. It is also a significant leap from most traditional dividend yields.

The product builds on a pattern for the exchange, which has previously marketed itself as the first platform to offer triple-leveraged exposure to AMD and to SpaceX in both directions, part of a larger push into tokenized real-world assets that has seen its user base in that category climb sharply this year.

What are investors giving up in exchange for that yield?

Tokenized stocks of this kind do not confer on their holders the legal rights that come with owning real shares, and Bitrue made that known in its disclaimer notes.

The exchange stated that it is only giving investors the kind of exposure they are already looking for, in addition to a fixed annualized return. Bitrue stated that their offering does not depend on a company’s dividend policy, its board’s decisions, or whether it’s even public in the first place.

Why is Bitrue expanding into this now?

The global market for tokenized real-world assets has grown by nearly three times since July 2025. It is currently valued at $34.97 billion, while tokenized stocks now have a distributed value of $1.94 billion. Tokenized stocks currently have a monthly transfer value of over $7.9 billion per data from rwa.xyz.

That growth has been mostly driven by demand from investors expanding their portfolio as well as 24/7 exposure, without settlement delays or dead hours. Bitrue is launching its AI Tokenized Stocks Earn to jump to the front of the queue among exchanges making the pivot to service the evolving market.

The Bitrue product is now live, but it is unavailable to investors in the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Canada, Australia, and other restricted jurisdictions.
