Netherlands Crypto Tax 2025: A Complete Guide

SpaceX is set to list on the Nasdaq on June 12 under the ticker symbol “SPCX,” with an offering price of $135 per share. The company plans to raise approximately $75 billion, corresponding to a valuation of roughly $1.75–1.77 trillion.As a research institute specializing in cryptocurrency and tokenized assets, WEEX Labs maintains a close watch on the U.S. stock market. We previously explored the market landscape surrounding trillion-dollar valuations, including SpaceX, in our article “How the Three Most Valuable IPOs of 2026 Will Ignite a New RWA Narrative？”Currently, WEEX Labs observes strong market participation in pre-market SpaceX tokens and perpetual contracts—which serve both as betting tools and as a barometer of market sentiment. Click to Trade SPACEXPRE/USDT SPCX/USDT Below are the six key issues surrounding this epic IPO: Valuation Game: Is $1.77 Trillion Overvalued?SpaceX’s IPO pricing essentially embodies the “impossible trinity.”Based on a $1.77 trillion valuation and $18.7 billion in revenue for 2025, its price-to-sales (P/S) ratio stands at approximately 94x. By comparison, NVIDIA was around 30x at the peak of the AI boom, Tesla was about 16x at the time, and even Palantir—an “extreme AI outlier”—was only about 80x.More critically, regarding profitability: SpaceX is projected to post a net loss of $4.9 billion in 2025 and still recorded a GAAP net loss of $4.3 billion in Q1 2026. This implies the company is still “burning through” over $4 billion in cash every quarter.The market has provided five key valuation benchmarks:$780B: Morningstar analyst’s DCF fair value (argues that the AI business is unproven and should not command a high premium).$1.22T–$1.29T: NYU Professor Damodaran’s valuation range (argues that buyers at a $1.75 trillion price have no upside potential).$1.25T: The marked-to-market valuation of long-term investor Baillie Gifford.$1.77T: SpaceX’s official public market valuation.$2.23T: Implied market capitalization based on pre-market prices on crypto exchanges like WEEX.It is evident that the current valuation has already priced in the growth expectations for AI, orbital data centers, and the Mars vision over the next decade. Are investors buying into existing Starlink cash flows, or are they paying for Musk’s “starry seas” vision? This dynamic will continue to drive the stock price in the long term. The New “Space AI” Narrative: The Ultimate Path or a Capital Market Gimmick?The core narrative of SpaceX’s IPO has shifted from “multi-planetary species” to “Space AI.” In February of this year, SpaceX merged with xAI in an all-stock deal and bundled a $20 billion GPU leasing agreement into the public company—a highly controversial capital maneuver.The “gap” at the physical level is even more critical: the vision of “orbital data centers” hinted at during the roadshow requires launching 1 million metric tons of payload into space annually; yet SpaceX’s actual mass placed into orbit in 2025 was only 2,200 tons. There is a capacity gap of nearly 500 times.Given the current valuation, the market’s focus on the “space AI” narrative lies not in Musk’s “three-year promise,” but in whether three key technologies—thermal management, radiation-resistant chips, and full reusability of Starship—can achieve scalable breakthroughs in the coming years. Otherwise, the project will remain stuck in an expensive experimental phase for the foreseeable future. The Siphon Effect: Will It Drain Liquidity from the Crypto Market?SpaceX raised $75 billion, sparking concerns that it might drain liquidity from the crypto market.However, according to calculations by Rob Arnott, Chairman of RAFI, index funds employ a “float-adjusted” mechanism, which caps the actual purchase limit for passive index funds at around $30 billion—far below the level required to “drain” the market.What truly warrants attention are two more subtle impacts:The “substitution effect” on risk appetite. If SpaceX performs strongly after its IPO, some speculative capital may shift from high-risk crypto assets to “fundamentally backed space and AI narratives.” This resembles a competition of narratives rather than a direct capital flight.The “reference effect” on valuations. SpaceX’s IPO at a price-to-sales ratio of 94 will objectively raise the market’s tolerance for “high-growth, high-loss” tech assets. This could provide valuation support for AI computing and DePIN sectors in the crypto market, which are also in their early high-growth stages. “Jumping Shark Moment”: What Is the Limit of Index Fund Buying?This is perhaps the most underestimated structural impact of this IPO.To “squeeze” super-unicorns like SpaceX and OpenAI into their indices, the three major index providers have thoroughly negotiated their core rules: the S&P 500 maintained its 22-year-old “12-month trading history + four consecutive quarters of GAAP profitability” threshold; Nasdaq and FTSE Russell, however, waived the profitability requirement and shortened the observation window for new listings to five days.Asset management innovator Phil Bak has dubbed this the “Fonzie moment” for index funds—a reference to the iconic scene from Happy Days where Fonzie jumps over a shark, symbolizing when things start to get absurd. He points out that while investors thought they were buying “passive, low-cost, and diversified” tools, they have in fact handed over all control over asset allocation, IPO discipline, and valuation judgments to the index committees.However, based on the float adjustment mechanism, the upper limit of fund buying for SpaceX remains capped at around $30 billion. This is enough to trigger market turbulence, but certainly not enough to cause a U.S. stock market crash. Bypassing Wall Street’s Pricing Power: Are Retail and Institutional Investors on a Level Playing Field?SpaceX adopted an extremely rare strategy: it did not set a price range but instead directly announced a fixed offering price of $135. Traditional large IPOs use “bookbuilding” to gather institutional feedback on pricing through investment banks, reserving room for institutional negotiation and suppressing the offering price to create profit margins for a “jump-up” on the first trading day.SpaceX skipped this step, sending a dual signal:Absolute confidence: no need to gauge market demand intensity;Squeezing Wall Street’s pricing power: retail and institutional investors subscribe at the same price.Crypto entrepreneur Anthony Pompliano views this as a watershed moment—it reinforces the “retail-friendly” narrative and resonates with the “decentralized, inclusive” ethos of crypto exchanges. Reassessment of the Aerospace Sector: Who’s Riding the Wave?Driven by the impact of SpaceX’s IPO and the sustained rally in the U.S. tech sector, shares of a number of space companies have risen by 60%–100% so far this year.If the market accepts SpaceX’s price-to-sales ratio of 94x, the valuation ceiling for the entire aerospace sector will be significantly raised. The following companies are worth watching:Rocket Lab(RKLB): An American space launch company that operates the proven and reliable small launch vehicle “Electron”;AST SpaceMobile (ASTS): Space-based cellular broadband network for mobile phones;Intuitive Machines (LUNR): The world’s first commercial lunar landing company and a key contractor for NASA’s Artemis program;Redwire (RDW): A U.S. integrated aerospace and defense technology group with deep ties to NASA and the U.S. Space Force;Virgin Galactic (SPCE): A pioneer in commercial space travel;Archer Aviation (ACHR): Engages in deep collaboration with aviation giants such as United Airlines, with a rapid pace of commercialization.Supply chain companies are also highly sensitive to these trends.Among the three core suppliers—Filtronic (RF), STMicroelectronics (chips), and Shengda Technology (microwave components)—Filtronic derives approximately 83% of its revenue from SpaceX, and SpaceX has already acquired 10% of its stock warrants, posing a significant single-customer dependency risk.Additionally, SpaceX is building its own solar cell factory in Bastrop, Texas, posing the most direct “insourcing risk” to supplier TSEC. Dual-Class Stock Structure: Separation of Voting Rights and Ownership?This is likely the issue most easily overlooked by retail investors, yet one with the greatest long-term implications.Under the dual-class stock structure, Musk will control approximately 82.4% of the common stock voting rights (Class B shares carry 10 votes per share, while Class A shares carry 1 vote per share). This means common shareholders cannot influence any major decisions regarding capital allocation, related-party transactions, or strategic direction, and the threshold for shareholder lawsuits in Texas—where SpaceX is registered—is extremely high.In DeFi and DAO governance, we have long been accustomed to discussions about the “separation of voting rights and ownership.” SpaceX, however, offers a counterexample: when governance power is highly concentrated in the hands of the founder, what exactly is the point of a “public listing”? This is essentially a transaction that sells equity to the public without relinquishing control. SummaryThe above issues collectively point to SpaceX’s fundamental contradiction: proven Starlink cash flow versus unrealized long-term options in space AI. Short-term pricing reflects narrative and liquidity, while long-term value depends on execution capabilities.As a crypto exchange institution, WEEX Labs believes the SpaceX IPO offers an excellent window into the convergence of risk preferences between “traditional tech” and “digital assets.” In a highly volatile environment, pre-market tokens and perpetual contracts can provide flexible risk management tools for different types of users.Growth-oriented investors should closely monitor progress on Starship and AI; value-oriented investors should focus on Starlink’s fundamentals and valuation recovery.Regardless of the chosen path, subsequent financial reports, launch records, and regulatory developments must be continuously tracked. Further Reading:Join the SpaceX hype and share $60,000

Spot trading is the simplest way to own crypto. No leverage. No liquidation risk. Just buy, hold, and sell when ready.

If you're new to crypto, trading on WEEX starts here. This guide covers how spot markets work, the difference between Fund and Spot accounts, and how to execute your first trade.

What Is Spot Trading?

Spot trading means buying and selling actual cryptocurrencies for immediate delivery.

When you buy Bitcoin on the spot market, you own that Bitcoin. Not a contract. Not a promise. The actual asset.

The mechanics are simple:

Order book system: Buyers (bids) and sellers (asks) post pricesThe match: When your buy price meets a sell price, trade executes instantlyOwnership: Crypto moves into your Spot Account immediately

Unlike futures, there's no expiration. Hold for ten minutes or ten years. Your choice.

Why Spot Trading Is Best for Beginners

No liquidation risk. That's the big one. In futures trading, a bad move can wipe out your entire position. In spot trading, even if Bitcoin drops 50%, you still own the same Bitcoin. You only lose if you sell at the lower price.

Three reasons beginners start with spot:

Direct ownership – You control the asset. Withdraw to a private wallet anytime.No leverage – 1:1 only.Learn the market – Watch price action without risking total loss.Understanding Your WEEX Accounts: Fund vs. Spot

Before your first trade, know this: WEEX separates your assets into two accounts.

Stores deposits. Used for withdrawals and grid bots.Spot AccountActive trading account. Used only for spot market orders. Shows real-time P&L.

Critical: If you deposit funds but your trading page shows $0 available, you forgot to transfer from Fund to Spot. The transfer is instant and free. Do it every time before trading.

Simple rule: Use spot for building a portfolio. Use futures only after you understand leverage risk.

Note: WEEX futures market liquidity is often 10x–100x higher than spot, meaning tighter spreads. But that doesn't matter if you get liquidated. Start with spot.

The global space economy just hit an inflection point. SpaceX filed its S-1. The IPO date is locked: June 12, 2026. Price: $135 per share. Valuation: $1.77 trillion.

This is not a drill. The largest IPO in history is days away. But SpaceX is just the headline. The real story is the entire space stock sector waking up. Rocket Lab. AST SpaceMobile. Intuitive Machines. Firefly Aerospace. All moving.

This guide covers the top 5 space stock picks for 2026, the macro trends driving valuations, and exactly how to buy SpaceX IPO on WEEX TradFi before the June 12 listing.

What Are the Top Trends Driving the Global Space Economy in 2026?The SpaceX halo effect.

When the biggest player goes public, it lifts everyone. Generalist funds that ignored space are now scrambling for exposure. The June 12 listing is forcing Wall Street to revalue the whole sector.

Orbital data centers.

AI needs compute. Compute needs energy. Space has unlimited solar power. Companies are now talking about running AI models directly on satellites. No data sovereignty issues. No fiber cables. Just instant edge computing from orbit.

Direct-to-device cellular.

Your phone already works with Starlink in some regions. AST SpaceMobile is building the same thing. No new hardware. Just satellites talking to regular smartphones. This turns space companies into global telecom utilities.

Launch is getting cheaper.

Reusable rockets cut the cost per kilogram to low Earth orbit by 90%. That math changes everything. More launches. More satellites. More revenue.

Top 5 Space Stocks to Watch Before the SpaceX IPO

Here are the top space stock picks heading into June 2026.

1. SpaceX (SPCX)IPO Date: June 12, 2026Price: $135 per shareValuation: $1.77 trillion

SpaceX dominates commercial launches. Starlink generated $11.4 billion of the company's $18.7 billion in 2025 revenue. The company loses money on Starship and xAI, but the launch moat is unassailable. The IPO is unusual. A 100% primary offering means all $75 billion goes to SpaceX, not selling shareholders. Elon locked his own shares for 366 days, so no immediate insider dumping.

How to buy SpaceX IPO on WEEX TradFi before June 12: Use pre-IPO perpetual futures. See the full guide below.

2. Rocket Lab (RKLB)Current price: ~$18-20Q1 2026 revenue: $200 million (up 64% year over year)Backlog: $2.2 billionP/S ratio: ~138x

Rocket Lab is the closest public comp to SpaceX. Small launch today. Medium-lift Neutron rocket coming in late 2026. Defense contracts keep stacking up. Recent wins include a $90 million Space Force satellite deal and a $190 million hypersonic test award. The RKLB stock ran 365% in the past year. Valuation is expensive, but the backlog says demand is real.

3. AST SpaceMobile (ASTS)Current price: ~$118Cash on hand: $3.9 billionPartners: AT&T, Verizon, VodafoneIntrinsic value (DCF): $138

ASTS is building the first space-based cellular network for unmodified smartphones. Block 2 BlueBird satellites are the largest commercial arrays ever deployed in low Earth orbit. The company has $3.9 billion in cash, so no near-term dilution risk. Partners include every major US carrier. DCF models show the stock is still discounted at $118.

4. Intuitive Machines (LUNR)Current price: ~$40Q1 2026 revenue: $186.7 millionBacklog addition: $842 million

Intuitive Machines completed the first commercial US moon landing. Now the company is building lunar infrastructure. It recently acquired the Goonhilly Earth Station network and was selected for the US Space Force Andromeda program. LUNR is not a rocket launch play. It is a lunar real estate and deep space communications play. Different niche. Growing fast.

5. Firefly Aerospace (FLY)Current price: ~$44Recent follow-on offering: $576 millionDCF fair value: ~$36

Firefly went public recently. It raised $576 million in a follow-on offering at $48 per share. The stock trades slightly above DCF fair value, but the backlog of government missions is solid. Watch for acquisition rumors. Firefly could be a target as capital consolidates in the space sector.

Risks to Know Before Trading Space Stocks

Rockets blow up sometimes. Blue Origin just had a static fire incident. When that happens, space stocks can drop 20-30% overnight. Then you have valuation risk. Some space stocks trade at 100x sales or higher. One bad quarter and the stock gets cut in half. No cushion. No mercy.

Correlated moves hurt too. Top space ETFs share over 50% of the same holdings. When one falls, they all fall together. No diversification. Governance is another headache. Elon controls 85% voting power at SpaceX. You get the financial upside but zero say. Other space stocks have similar setups. And pre-IPO futures? Low liquidity. Slippage will eat you. Use limit orders and size down.

Conclusion

The space sector is no longer speculative. It is infrastructure. SpaceX leads the charge with a $1.77 trillion IPO on June 12. Rocket Lab, ASTS, and LUNR follow close behind. Each fills a different niche: launch, telecom, lunar. If you want exposure before the listing, how to buy SpaceX IPO on WEEX gives you a clear path. Pre-IPO futures, low minimums, no accredited investor hurdles.

Just remember the risks. Launch failures happen. Valuations are rich. Pre-IPO derivatives are not shares. Trade small. Trade smart. The rocket launches June 12.

Choose spot if: You believe SpaceX valuation will rise. You want to hold without worrying about liquidation. You are newer to trading.

Choose futures if: You want to trade volatility. You understand leverage risk. You want the ability to short.

Pro tip: Most beginners should start with spot. If you use futures, keep leverage at 2x-3x max. Never risk more than 1-2% of your portfolio on pre-IPO speculation.

Risks to Know Before Trading SpaceX IPO

Pre-IPO trading is not the same as buying real stock. You are buying a derivative or synthetic token that tracks SpaceX valuation. Not equity. No voting rights. No dividends.

Price discovery is weak. If SpaceX delays the IPO, these tokens could collapse. Liquidity can dry up. These are not high-volume markets. Your exit might not be clean.

Valuation is speculative. If the stock trades below $135 on June 12, your pre-IPO position loses value.

Leverage kills. Futures trading with high leverage will liquidate you on a small move. Only risk what you can afford to lose. This is not financial advice.

Final Thoughts: Start Trading SpaceX IPO

The SpaceX IPO is historic. $1.77 trillion valuation. June 12 launch date. If you want exposure before the listing, WEEX offers a clear path. Spot trading for beginners who want to buy and hold. Futures for active traders who want leverage.

Just remember. These are not real shares. No voting rights. No dividends. They are price exposure tools. Trade small. Trade smart. The rocket launches on June 12. Get your position ready before then.

SpaceX just filed its S-1. The numbers are massive. $1.75 trillion valuation. $135 per share. $75 billion raise. Listing as early as June 12, 2026.

For most of history, pre-IPO access was for VC firms and millionaires. Not anymore.

The timeline is locked. No more rumors.

Where to buy spacex ipo after listing? Any regulated broker: Fidelity, Schwab, Robinhood, Interactive Brokers. But if you want exposure before June 12, pre-IPO instruments are the only path.

What Will the SpaceX IPO Price Be?

$135 per share. Firm. SpaceX reportedly told underwriters it will not budge.

But here is the unusual part: 30% of the offering is set aside for retail investors. That is massive. Most mega-cap IPOs give retail scraps. SpaceX is doing the opposite.

The spacex ipo valuation at $135 per share implies a $1.75 trillion market cap.

To put that in perspective:

Boeing: ~$120BLockheed Martin: ~$140BNorthrop Grumman: ~$70BCombined: $330B. Still 5x smaller than SpaceX.

Either SpaceX is worth more than the entire legacy defense aerospace industry combined, or the valuation is too high.

Pros of SpaceX IPOUnmatched launch dominance: SpaceX launched more than half of all global rockets last year. No competitor has reusable technology at scale. ULA, Rocket Lab, and Blue Origin are years behind.Starlink is a cash machine: Spacex starlink revenue 2025 hit approximately $13-15 billion, representing the majority of SpaceX's $18.7B total. With 10 million+ subscribers and 62.9% adjusted EBITDA margins, Starlink alone would be a unicorn.AI and data center synergies: SpaceX merged with xAI and secured a $1.25 billion per month contract with Anthropic through mid-2029. That is $15 billion annually from one customer.Retail-friendly allocation: 30% set aside for ordinary investors. Most IPOs allocate 5-10% to retail. This changes who can participate.Fast index inclusion: New exchange rules allow mega-caps to bypass seasoning periods. SPCX could enter passive indices within 15 trading days, creating forced buying pressure.Cons of SpaceX IPOValuation is aggressive: At $1.75T against $18.7B revenue, the price-to-sales ratio is 94x. Morningstar published a fair value estimate of $780 billion. That is 55% below the IPO target.SpaceX lost $4.94 billion in FY2025: Not close to profitable. The xAI segment alone recorded a $6.4 billion operating loss in 2025. Starlink prints cash. Everything else burns it.Key person risk: Elon Musk retains 82-85% voting power through dual-class shares. Public shareholders have no governance control. What Musk decides goes. No questions asked.Lockup structure is unusual: Only 3% of shares float at IPO. But SpaceX allows phased insider selling. Large holders can exit gradually starting soon after listing. Supply increases. Prices often drop.Small float = high volatility: 3% public float means limited shares available. First day pops are likely. Then corrections. Then more volatility.How to Buy SpaceX Pre on WEEX in 2026: Step by step Guide

If you want exposure before the June 12 listing, how to buy spacex pre on WEEX is straightforward. WEEX offers three pre-IPO instruments with no accredited investor requirements.

Step-by-step to buy SpaceX Pre on WEEX:

Pro note: These are derivatives, not real equity. You are trading price exposure, not ownership. Never risk more than 1-2% of your portfolio on pre-IPO speculation.

SpaceX IPO vs Anthropic IPO

SpaceX is not the only mega-IPO in 2026. Anthropic filed confidentially for a Q4 listing at $965B – $1T.

td {white-space:nowrap;border:0.5pt solid #dee0e3;font-size:10pt;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;vertical-align:middle;word-break:normal;word-wrap:normal;}MetricSpaceX (SPCX)AnthropicTarget valuation$1.75T$965B – $1TListing date~June 12, 2026Q4 2026 (expected)Revenue (annualized)$18.7B (FY2025)$47B (May 2026 run-rate)Revenue multiple~94x~20.5xProfitabilityNet loss $4.94BProjecting Q2 2026 profitCore businessLaunches + StarlinkEnterprise AI + Claude

Which is better? For short-term momentum and index inclusion, SpaceX wins. For valuation discipline and software margins, Anthropic looks cleaner. Many traders plan to hold both.

Conclusion: Should You Participate in SpaceX IPO?

Should you participate in the SpaceX IPO? Yes, but only if you have a 5-10 year horizon, believe Starlink can 5x subscribers, and can handle 50% drawdowns.

You want to trade NVDA stock moves. But the market closes at 4 PM. You wake up on Sunday. Nvidia drops 5% overnight on Asia news. You cannot do anything until Monday morning. Frustrating, right?

Now imagine trading stock futures 24/7. Sunday night. Asian hours. Pre-market. Post-market. Any time a headline drops, you react.

That is exactly what stock trading on WEEX lets you do. No brokerage account. No currency exchange. No waiting for market open.

This guide shows you how to trade stock futures on WEEX, why NVDA stock perps are different from owning the actual share, and the exact steps to start your first stock trading.

What Are Stock Futures?

Stock futures are derivative contracts that track the price of underlying stocks like Nvidia, Tesla, or Apple. You are not buying the company. You are betting on price direction.

Here is how they work on WEEX:

USDT margin: Deposit USDT, trade stocks. No need to buy dollars or yen.Up to 100x leverage: Small capital, amplified exposure.No expiry: Perpetual futures let you hold as long as you want.24/7 trading: Traditional markets close. WEEX does not.

Real example: Nvidia reports earnings on Wednesday after close. You think the stock pops. Instead of waiting for Thursday's open, you buy NVDA stock futures on WEEX Tuesday night. The report drops. Stock jumps 8% pre-market. Your position is already green before traditional traders can even log in.

No middle ground.WEEX lets you use up to 400x leverage. Sounds cool, right? Here is the catch: at 400x, a 0.2% move against you and your trade is dead. Start small. Seriously.Beginners, stick to isolated margin. Why? Because it keeps your screw-ups contained to one trade. Cross margin is for people who enjoy watching their whole account vanish in ten seconds.

This guide walks you through the basics, the risks, and exactly how to place your first trade without making the classic beginner mistakes.

What Is a Futures Contract?

A futures contract is a legal agreement to buy or sell an asset at a predetermined price on a specific future date.

When you buy crypto on spot, you get it immediately. Futures lock in today's price for a transaction that happens later.

Example: Bitcoin is 70,000 today. You think it will hit 100,000 in three months. You buy a futures contract at $70,000. If you are right, you profit. If you are wrong, you lose.

That is the core idea. A bet on future price, locked in today.

How Futures Contracts Work

Let us make this concrete. No crypto jargon yet. Just corn.

The setup:

Alice grows corn. Her cost is $100 per ton.Candy buys corn. Her budget max is $110 per ton.They sign a futures contract before harvest at $105 per ton.

At harvest, three scenarios:

td {white-space:nowrap;border:0.5pt solid #dee0e3;font-size:10pt;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;vertical-align:middle;word-break:normal;word-wrap:normal;}ScenarioMarket PriceAlice's ProfitWho Wins?Higher yield (price drops)Below $100More than $5Candy (buys cheap)Expected yieldAround $100$5Both fairLower yield (price spikes)Above $100Less than $5Alice (locked in higher price)

Key insight: Candy locks in supply. Alice locks in price certainty. Futures contracts are not just for speculation. They are risk management tools.

And yes, you can sell your contract to someone else before expiration.

Key TakeawaysWEEX’s stock-focused TradFi campaign rewards users who make their first stock futures trade with a random futures bonus of 5 to 100 USDT from a 50,000 USDT pool, on a first-come, first-served basis. The campaign is designed to make US stock trading simpler for crypto users by keeping everything in a USDT-based, crypto-native account with no separate brokerage setup. WEEX TradFi lets users trade stock price movements rather than own the underlying shares, which is important for understanding what the product actually is. The latest official WEEX pages also highlight 24/7 access, long/short trading, and no broker approval for stock futures-style TradFi products. For readers searching for a stock promotion with both education and reward value, this event is built around a simple idea: trade US stocks inside WEEX TradFi and claim a limited bonus pool while learning how the product works. 

WEEX’s stock activity is a straightforward TradFi campaign built to pull more users into US stock contract trading through a simple reward structure: make your first stock futures trade and you can receive a random bonus from 5 to 100 USDT, with a total pool of 50,000 USDT and first-come, first-served distribution. At the same time, the product itself is designed for crypto-native users, so the bigger story is not just the bonus; it is how WEEX turns stock exposure into a USDT-settled, one-account trading experience that does not require a traditional brokerage setup.

What the WEEX stock activity is really about

The current stock campaign is centered on a very clear hook: trade stocks on WEEX TradFi and get up to 100 USDT in futures bonus. The official event page describes the promotion as “Trade stocks & get up to $100 futures bonus,” and the campaign article explains that users who complete their first stock futures trade can randomly receive between 5 and 100 USDT from a 50,000 USDT prize pool. The limited reward pool and first-come, first-served structure make the promotion feel more like an entry incentive than a long-term loyalty program.

That matters because most users searching for stock trading promotions are not only asking for a bonus. They are also asking whether the product behind the bonus is easy to use, whether it requires a separate brokerage account, and whether they need to move out of their normal crypto workflow. WEEX’s answer is no: the TradFi experience is designed to sit inside the same platform and use USDT as the margin currency.

Why this campaign is different from a normal stock promo

A normal stock promo often rewards users for depositing fiat, opening a brokerage account, or meeting a volume threshold in a traditional market app. WEEX’s stock activity is different because it lives inside a crypto-native account. The platform’s TradFi materials say users can trade stocks, gold, oil, indices, and forex using USDT, without opening a separate brokerage account or dealing with bank-transfer friction. That lowers the barrier for users who already know how to manage crypto balances and futures positions.

The other major difference is product structure. WEEX TradFi lets users trade the price movement of stocks rather than take ownership of the shares themselves. The help center explicitly says that stock products let users trade price movements in popular stocks without owning the underlying shares. That is important because the campaign is not about buying equities in the traditional sense; it is about trading stock-linked exposure inside a derivatives-style framework.

This structure makes the campaign easy to understand. Users are not asked to learn a complex loyalty program or complete a long checklist. They are asked to trade stocks once, and the platform uses that activity to unlock a bonus from the pool. For SEO and reader intent, that simplicity is exactly why the event has strong click potential: it combines stock trading, a cash-like bonus, and a short path to participation.

What you can actually trade on WEEX TradFi

WEEX’s TradFi materials say the platform includes stock exposure alongside other traditional markets such as gold, silver, crude oil, forex pairs, and indices. In the current event page, stocks are one of the primary campaign categories, and the page also frames the product as one-stop USDT trading for global assets. For users who mainly care about the stock angle, the important point is that the stock campaign is not isolated from the rest of the platform; it is part of a broader TradFi ecosystem.

WEEX has also published stock-related education pages around individual symbols and stock-like USDT instruments, including examples like METAUSDT, SPYUSDT, SOXXUSDT, and FUTUUSDT. Those pages reinforce the same idea: on WEEX, the user is trading price exposure, not stock ownership, and that exposure can be accessed through a crypto-native setup.

Crypto users are already familiar with the idea of trading volatility, using leverage, and managing USDT as a base currency. WEEX TradFi fits that mental model. The platform’s recent stock guides say TradFi perpetuals offer leveraged, long/short, USDT-margined futures on stocks and indices, with no broker approval and no limited hours. For someone coming from crypto, that feels much closer to their existing workflow than opening a conventional brokerage account.

That familiarity helps explain why the stock activity is attractive. It is not just a giveaway; it is a conversion tool. The bonus gets people to try the product, but the real product value is the lower learning curve, unified account structure, and fast access to stock-linked markets through a system they already understand.

How the bonus works in plain English

The official campaign article says the stock event rewards your first stock futures trade with a random 5 to 100 USDT futures bonus, and the total reward pool is 50,000 USDT. That means the actual reward is not fixed in advance. Instead, you participate, qualify, and then receive a randomly assigned bonus from within the event’s range, subject to availability.

For readers, the main educational point is that a “bonus pool” campaign is different from a cashback campaign or a guaranteed rebate campaign. Pool-based events depend on both qualification and available supply. Once the pool is exhausted, the campaign ends even if more users still want to join. That is why the official wording emphasizes first-come, first-served.

Possible reward rangeWhat it means5 USDT bonusEntry-level reward for qualifying participants.100 USDT bonusMaximum reward advertised by the campaign.50,000 USDT total poolLimited supply across all eligible users.Why the stock trading angle matters more than the bonus alone

The bonus is the headline, but the stock product is the actual reason the event exists. WEEX’s stock pages explain that stock contracts let users trade the movement of popular stocks without owning the underlying shares, and the TradFi product is designed to work inside a normal WEEX account. That means the campaign is really encouraging habit formation: one trade leads to a reward, and the reward leads users to explore a new market category inside the same platform.

That is good marketing, but it is also useful for users. A first trade in a stock product is often the hardest step because it forces the user to understand the trading interface, margin setup, and asset behavior. A bonus lowers the psychological barrier, while the TradFi layout lowers the operational barrier. Together, they make stock exposure feel less intimidating for crypto-native users.

What to watch before joining any stock contract event

Even in a promotional event, costs and risk still matter. WEEX says TradFi products can involve trading fees, funding fees, volatility, leverage, and liquidity changes. The platform’s own fee documentation explains that trading fees apply when you open or close positions, while funding fees are periodically settled when you hold positions. That means short-term and swing traders may experience the event very differently.

WEEX also notes that market conditions matter. Stock-related TradFi products may behave differently during regular market hours, premarket or after-hours windows, and weekend or holiday periods when liquidity can be thinner. The platform’s current educational pages say 24/7 access exists, but liquidity may still vary because stock price discovery is tied to traditional market structure.

A simple comparison of WEEX TradFi stock trading versus traditional brokerage stock tradingFeatureWEEX TradFi stock tradingTraditional stock brokerageAccount setupUses existing WEEX accountUsually requires a separate brokerage account.Margin currencyUSDTUsually fiat cash or base currency account.Market access24/7 access on the platform, with liquidity varying by sessionUsually limited to exchange hours and brokerage rules.OwnershipPrice exposure only, not share ownershipShares represent actual ownership.Trading styleLong/short, derivative-style exposureUsually long-only unless using separate margin products.Entry frictionNo broker approval and no bank-wire dependencyOften requires account approval and funding steps.

This comparison is the best way to understand the event. The campaign is not trying to replace traditional stock investing. It is trying to make stock-linked trading simpler for crypto users who already prefer USDT settlement and faster execution workflows. That is why the stock promotion is so aligned with WEEX TradFi’s broader positioning.

Who this stock activity is best for

The campaign is most useful for three groups of users. First, crypto traders who already understand derivatives and want exposure to stock themes without leaving a crypto platform. Second, users who are curious about US stocks but do not want to open a separate brokerage account. Third, promo hunters who want to try the product because the reward structure is simple and the pool is limited.

If you fall into any of those groups, this event gives you a low-friction entry point. You can test the stock workflow, see how USDT-margined exposure feels, and potentially receive a bonus from the pool at the same time. That dual value is why the campaign is likely to attract attention from both traders and searchers.

How to think about the event in SEO terms

From an SEO perspective, the strongest keywords around this event are easy to identify: WEEX stock bonus, trade stocks on WEEX, US stock futures bonus, WEEX TradFi stocks, stock trading promotion, and USDT stock trading. The campaign naturally supports those keywords because it combines a bonus offer, a stock trading product, and a crypto-native account structure. That makes the topic relevant for users searching both for information and for a reason to click.

The event is also a good example of how educational content can outperform pure advertising copy. A reader is more likely to click if they understand what stock futures are, how WEEX TradFi works, and why the promotion is different from normal stock investing. That is why the best article on this topic should explain the product first and the bonus second.

Final perspective on the stock campaign

The WEEX stock activity is more than a temporary reward banner. It is a simple funnel into a larger TradFi product that lets crypto users trade stock-linked exposure with USDT, one account, and no brokerage setup. The official event material says the campaign offers a random 5 to 100 USDT futures bonus for a first stock futures trade, backed by a 50,000 USDT prize pool, while the TradFi product pages explain why that stock exposure may feel easy for crypto users to adopt.

If you are writing or reading about the event, the clearest message is simple: this is a stock promotion built for crypto-native users. The bonus creates urgency, the product creates utility, and the TradFi structure creates a bridge between traditional stock themes and a USDT-based trading account.

Conclusion

WEEX’s stock campaign is strongest when you think of it as an educational entry point, not just a giveaway. The event rewards first-time stock futures trading, the platform supports stock price exposure inside a crypto-native environment, and the current official pages make clear that users can trade without opening a separate brokerage account. That combination gives the campaign both promotional value and product value.

For users who want to try stock-linked trading inside WEEX TradFi, the smartest move is to review the current event page, understand the product mechanics, and decide whether the bonus and workflow match your trading style. If the pool is still available, the earlier you check the rules, the better your chance of joining before rewards are gone. WEEX TradFi stock event page

1. What is the WEEX stock trading event?

It is a limited-time WEEX TradFi promotion centered on stock futures trading. According to the official campaign article, users who make their first stock futures trade can receive a random 5 to 100 USDT futures bonus from a 50,000 USDT pool.

2. Do I own real shares when I trade stocks on WEEX TradFi?

No. WEEX says its stock products let users trade price movements in popular stocks without owning the underlying shares. That means the product is exposure-based, not share-ownership-based.

3. What do I need to join the stock promotion?

4. Is WEEX TradFi available 24/7?

WEEX’s TradFi pages describe 24/7 access, but they also note that liquidity can vary around traditional market hours, weekends, and holidays. That means the platform can be open all the time even though stock market behavior still depends on broader market structure.

5. Why is this event attractive to crypto users?

Because it keeps everything inside a USDT-based, crypto-native workflow. Users can access stock-linked exposure, long/short trading, and a bonus pool without opening a separate brokerage account or switching to a different system.

Disclaimer: Trading digital assets and derivatives involves significant risk. WEEX TradFi products may involve price volatility, leverage, funding fees, liquidity changes, and region-specific rules. Promotions can change, end early, or vary by account status. Always review the latest official event terms before trading.

Key TakeawaysWEEX TradFi is a USDT-margined way to trade traditional market price movements inside a crypto-native account, without opening a separate brokerage account or making bank deposits. WEEX’s latest official event page highlights zero fees on gold, stocks, and oil, while other current WEEX TradFi materials also mention zero-fee access across gold, silver, crude oil, and tokenized stock futures. The product supports 24/7 trading, but liquidity can be thinner during weekends and holidays because traditional markets are still the reference point. WEEX TradFi uses USDT only as margin, and the latest event page shows different leverage caps by asset, including up to 400× for XAUT and XAG, 100× for PAXG, and 50× for tokenized stocks. The real value for crypto users is the simplified workflow: one WEEX account, one USDT balance, and access to global markets without switching systems. 

WEEX TradFi is designed for crypto users who want exposure to gold, oil, stocks, indices, and related global markets without leaving a USDT-based workflow. The latest official pages frame it as a crypto-native way to access traditional assets with 24/7 trading, no separate brokerage account, and no bank-funding friction, while the current event page adds a limited zero-fee promotion and a stock bonus offer. That combination makes WEEX TradFi a useful product to understand even if you are not ready to trade today, because it shows how crypto and traditional markets are being brought into one account experience.

What Is WEEX TradFi?

WEEX TradFi is a USDT-margined derivatives product that lets users trade the price movement of traditional assets inside the WEEX platform. WEEX’s current official materials say the product includes gold, silver, crude oil, tokenized stocks, and global indices, and that users do not need a separate brokerage account or bank deposit setup to participate. In other words, the account structure is built to feel familiar to crypto traders while opening the door to traditional market exposure.

That is the core reason WEEX TradFi matters. Instead of forcing a crypto user to learn a separate brokerage interface, switch between platforms, or fund another account through fiat rails, WEEX keeps everything in USDT. The official TradFi pages also describe a no-expiry perpetual structure, which means positions can stay open as long as margin requirements are met. For readers who already understand crypto perpetuals, that structure is much easier to recognize than a traditional brokerage workflow.

Why WEEX TradFi Exists

WEEX TradFi exists because many crypto traders want more than Bitcoin and altcoins. They also want access to macro themes like gold, oil, stocks, and indices, but they want that access inside the same account they already use every day. WEEX’s own explanation is direct: TradFi is meant to remove friction, unify capital flow, and make global markets feel native to crypto users. That is why the platform emphasizes one account, USDT margin, and no need to open a separate brokerage relationship.

The user benefit is not just convenience. It is also workflow consistency. If someone already knows how to place futures orders, set stops, and manage margin in crypto, WEEX TradFi lowers the learning curve for trading non-crypto markets. That is a useful bridge for users who want diversification without leaving a familiar interface.

What the Latest WEEX Event Page Says

The latest official WEEX TradFi event page says the campaign runs under the headline “Trade gold, stocks, and oil with zero fees.” The page also lists a limited event window of May 21, 2026 to May 31, 2026 UTC+8, and it highlights a stock bonus offer of up to $100 futures bonus. Even though that window is time-limited, the page is important because it shows the current positioning of the product: zero fees, one platform, and a USDT-based entry point.

A second current WEEX article is even broader. It says WEEX is running a zero-fee promotion across all TradFi products, including crude oil perpetuals, gold, silver, and tokenized stock futures, and it describes the promotion as a trade-more-earn-more model. That means the current WEEX messaging is not limited to one asset; it is building a wider TradFi story around multiple traditional market categories.

For readers interested in the live campaign hub, the event page is here: WEEX TradFi: One-Stop USDT Trading for Gold, Stocks, and Oil. The link is especially useful if you want to verify the latest asset list, fee banner, and event timing before acting.

How WEEX TradFi Works

The official process is simple. You create or log into a WEEX account, deposit USDT, move it into TradFi if needed, and then open a position on the asset you want to trade. WEEX says deposits can be made through on-chain transfers, OTC purchases, or internal transfers, and that you can trade directly from your existing spot or futures balance. That means the platform is not asking you to learn a totally new infrastructure before you start.

WEEX also says TradFi futures support 24/7 trading, which is a major psychological advantage for crypto-native users. A traditional market may reference a closing session, but the WEEX interface remains available all the time. The official FAQ adds one important nuance: liquidity may be lower during weekends and holidays because the underlying traditional markets are closed, so users should expect different market behavior depending on time of day and global market conditions.

What You Can Trade on WEEX TradFi

WEEX TradFi is not just one market. The official pages describe access to gold, silver, crude oil, tokenized stocks, commodities, and global indices. The page also makes clear that the product is built around price movement, not physical ownership. So when you trade gold or oil on WEEX TradFi, you are trading the contract exposure, not taking delivery of metal barrels or stock certificates.

Asset categoryExample products mentioned by WEEXPractical use casePrecious metalsGold, silver, XAUT, XAG, PAXGTrack inflation, macro uncertainty, and safe-haven flows.EnergyCrude oilTrade supply shocks, geopolitics, and inventory-driven moves.StocksTokenized stock futuresFollow earnings, product launches, and equity momentum.Broader macro assetsGlobal indices and commoditiesDiversify beyond pure crypto price exposure.

That asset mix matters because it gives crypto users a way to respond to real-world macro themes without stepping out of the crypto environment. Gold reacts to inflation and uncertainty. Oil reacts to supply, demand, and geopolitics. Stocks react to earnings and risk sentiment. In TradFi, those themes become tradable through a familiar USDT framework.

Fees and Costs: The Part Most Traders Ignore

The current promotion is attractive because it temporarily removes one of the biggest pain points: fees. But even if a user enters through a zero-fee promotion, understanding the normal fee structure is still important. WEEX’s TradFi help center says the product uses two major cost components: trading fees when you open or close positions, and funding fees when you hold positions over time. Trading fees are calculated as position value multiplied by the applicable fee rate.

Funding fees are different. WEEX explains that they are periodic payments between longs and shorts based on market conditions rather than a platform profit line item. WEEX’s newer TradFi education materials also say funding settlements occur every eight hours, typically around 07:00, 15:00, and 23:00 UTC+8, which is especially relevant for anyone holding positions overnight or for several days. That detail matters because a trade can look cheap on entry and still become expensive if funding accumulates.

Cost typeWhen it appliesWhy it mattersTrading feeWhen you open or close a positionAffects the cost of entry and exit.Funding feeWhen positions are held through settlement windowsCan raise or reduce total holding cost depending on market direction.Zero-fee promotionDuring the TradFi promotional periodCan temporarily reduce transaction friction on selected products.

For short-term users, fees mostly matter at entry and exit. For swing traders, the bigger issue is the funding side, because holding through multiple windows can quietly change the return profile. WEEX explicitly warns users to understand fees, trading hours, and risk controls before trading, which is exactly the right mindset for any TradFi product.

Why the Crypto-Native Workflow Is the Main Selling Point

WEEX is not positioning TradFi as a traditional brokerage clone. Its own materials repeatedly say the value lies in the unified crypto-native experience. That means users can trade global markets while staying in a familiar account structure, with familiar margin logic, and without switching to a separate platform or terminal. For crypto users who already understand perpetuals, that feels much more natural than the usual brokerage onboarding flow.

The platform also emphasizes no bank deposits and no separate TradFi account. Those two points are not marketing fluff. They remove two of the biggest barriers that keep many users away from traditional markets in the first place: banking friction and account fragmentation. That is why WEEX TradFi is often described as a bridge between crypto and global markets rather than just another derivatives product.

Leverage, Liquidity, and Risk

Leverage is one of the fastest ways to make TradFi exciting and dangerous at the same time. The current WEEX event page says XAUT and XAG support up to 400× leverage, PAXG supports up to 100×, and tokenized stocks support up to 50×. Those numbers are powerful, but they should be read as maximums, not recommendations. In real trading, position size and risk control matter more than the biggest available multiplier.

WEEX’s own risk language is consistent on this point. The platform warns that TradFi products carry risks such as price volatility, leverage, and liquidity changes, and it says users should understand product rules, fees, trading hours, and risk controls before trading. That warning is especially relevant for lower-liquidity periods, such as weekends and holidays, when the event page says market depth may be thinner.

WEEX TradFi is best for users who already think in USDT, futures, and market direction rather than in bank wires and stock certificates. A crypto trader who wants to diversify into gold or crude oil will probably find the workflow familiar. A macro watcher who follows inflation, interest rates, and geopolitics may also appreciate being able to trade those themes from one account. And a user who simply wants more than crypto can get an easier entry point than a traditional brokerage account often provides.

User typeWhy it fitsCrypto-native futures traderSame mental model, same USDT margin, lower learning curve.Macro traderAccess to gold, oil, indices, and stocks in one place.Diversification seekerA way to trade traditional market exposure without opening a brokerage account.Fee-sensitive traderZero-fee TradFi promotion reduces execution friction during the campaign window.

For these users, the real value is not just “more assets.” It is unified capital flow. A single account, a single margin currency, and a single trading interface make it easier to move from a crypto idea to a global-market idea without rebuilding the whole workflow. That is a meaningful product design decision, not just a headline.

How the Product Compares With Traditional Brokerage Thinking

WEEX itself frames TradFi as a simpler alternative to the friction of traditional finance. The company’s materials say users can trade global assets without opening a separate brokerage account, without fiat transfers, and without changing the core crypto-native workflow. That is very different from the usual stock or CFD journey, where account opening, funding, and terminal setup can slow people down before they even place a trade.

WEEX also contrasts its approach with CFD-style products in its own educational content, saying the platform is designed to align more closely with how crypto traders already operate. That matters because a product can be technically powerful and still feel clunky if it makes users relearn the entire trading process. WEEX is clearly trying to avoid that problem.

How to Use the Event Smartly

A smart TradFi user does not start by asking only “What is the zero-fee offer?” The better question is “Which market theme fits my view, and how long do I expect to hold?” If the answer is a short-term trade, trading fees matter most. If the answer is a swing position, funding and liquidity matter more. That is why WEEX’s own fee documentation repeatedly reminds users to review fee rates and settlement rules before holding positions overnight.

The current event page makes the first step straightforward: log in, deposit USDT, transfer into TradFi, and start trading. That simplicity is part of the campaign’s appeal, but it is also the point where users should slow down and read the current rules. Promotions are useful, but execution quality and risk control are what determine whether the trade makes sense.

A Practical Way to Read WEEX TradFi in 2026

The easiest way to understand WEEX TradFi is to treat it as a bridge product. It connects crypto habits to traditional market opportunities, and it does so using USDT, perpetual-style contracts, and a single account. The latest official materials show that the platform is still actively promoting the product, still offering 24/7 access, and still using campaign pricing to reduce friction for selected markets. That combination is exactly why it is relevant now.

For searchers and traders alike, the main takeaway is simple. WEEX TradFi is not just about gold, oil, or stocks. It is about turning those markets into something a crypto user can access without leaving the crypto environment. That is the real product story behind the promotion, and it is the reason this campaign has SEO value beyond a temporary fee event.

Conclusion

WEEX TradFi is a strong example of how crypto platforms are expanding into global market access without abandoning the USDT-native experience. The latest official pages show zero-fee promotion messaging, one-account access, no separate brokerage setup, 24/7 trading, and a broad asset list that includes gold, silver, crude oil, stocks, and indices. For crypto users who want diversification, that is a compelling combination of utility and simplicity.

If you are evaluating the campaign, the next step is to review the live event terms, compare the assets you care about, and decide whether the current fee and bonus structure matches your trading style. The product is designed to be easy to enter, but the best results still come from understanding the market, the costs, and the risk before you click trade.

1. What is WEEX TradFi?

WEEX TradFi is a USDT-margined product that lets users trade the price movement of traditional assets such as gold, silver, crude oil, stocks, and indices inside the WEEX platform. WEEX says users can do this without opening a separate brokerage account.

2. What assets are supported on WEEX TradFi?

The latest official WEEX materials mention gold, silver, crude oil, tokenized stocks, commodities, and global indices. The event page also highlights gold, stocks, and oil as the main campaign focus.

3. Does WEEX TradFi really have zero fees?

The latest official event page says gold, stocks, and oil are offered with zero fees during the campaign window, and another WEEX article says zero-fee promotion also covers gold, silver, crude oil, and tokenized stock futures. Always check the live page because promotions are time-limited.

4. Do I need a separate account or bank deposit to use WEEX TradFi?

No. WEEX says TradFi uses USDT only as margin, no separate TradFi account is required, and users can trade directly from their existing WEEX balance.

5. Is WEEX TradFi suitable for beginners?

It can be, especially for crypto users who already understand futures-style trading and want global market exposure inside a familiar interface. That said, leverage, funding fees, and liquidity changes still create real risk, so beginners should start with small size and read the current rules carefully.

Disclaimer: Trading digital assets and derivatives involves significant risk. WEEX TradFi products also carry risks such as price volatility, leverage, funding costs, and liquidity changes. Promotions, supported assets, leverage caps, and fee terms can change at any time and may vary by region or account status. Always review the latest official WEEX TradFi page and trading rules before trading.

You are not here for a 2% dividend yield. You are here because the SpaceX IPO is about to print millionaires. And you are asking yourself: am I early, or did I already miss the rocket?

Since its private funding rounds, SpaceX has done what no aerospace company has ever done. It slashed launch costs by 90%, built Starlink into an $11 billion revenue machine, and now is going public on Nasdaq under the ticker SPCX at a $1.75 trillion valuation.

But here is what most traders miss. While traditional investors fight over IPO allocations, the smart crowd trades space stock futures 24/7 on crypto platforms like WEEX TradFi.

In this guide, we are ditching the Wall Street jargon. You will learn exactly how to trade SpaceX pre-IPO, which space stocks actually matter, and—most importantly—how to get exposure without a US brokerage account.

Why Space Stocks Are Trending in June 2026

Here is a stat that should wake you up. The global space economy is projected to hit 1.8trillionto1.8trillionto2 trillion by 2035–2040. That is not science fiction. That is McKinsey and PwC data.

But the real catalyst? SpaceX just filed its S-1 for a historic June 12 Nasdaq listing. The company aims to raise 75 billion at 135 per share. That is the largest IPO in history.

Space Stocks vs. Space Futures

If you have traded space stocks on traditional brokers like Fidelity or Schwab, you know the pain. The market closes at 4 PM ET. If Elon tweets something at 10 PM on a Sunday, you sit on your hands until Monday morning.

This is where space futures on WEEX TradFi change the game.

You are not buying the company. You are trading the volatility. And in 2026, space stocks are among the most volatile assets on any exchange.

Best Space Stocks to Watch Before the SpaceX IPO1. SpaceX (SPCX)

Target Valuation: $1.75 trillion – $2 trillion IPO Price: $135 per share Starlink generated $11.4 billion of SpaceX’s $18.67 billion revenue in 2025. The company is also building orbital data centers for AI compute. This is not just a rocket company — it is a communications and AI infrastructure monopoly.

2. Rocket Lab (RKLB)

Recent Move: Up 365% over 52 weeks Backlog: $2.2 billion Rocket Lab is the most immediate public proxy for SpaceX exposure. The company posted $642 million in revenue and recently won a $190 million hypersonic test flight contract with the Department of Defense.

3. AST SpaceMobile (ASTS)

Recent Close: $118.12 (up 337%) Cash Reserves: $3.9 billion ASTS is building the first space-based cellular broadband network that connects directly to unmodified smartphones. Partnerships with AT&T, Verizon, and Vodafone make this a high-conviction long-term hold.

4. Intuitive Machines (LUNR)

Q1 2026 Revenue Growth: Tripled YoY to $186.7 million Backlog Expansion: +$842 million Intuitive Machines made history with the first commercial US moon landing. It was also selected for the US Space Force's Andromeda program for space domain awareness.

5. Firefly Aerospace (FLY)

Recent Raise: $576 million follow-on offering at $48 per share Firefly carved out a niche in medium-lift launches and lunar lander services. Its robust government backlog positions it as a potential acquisition target as capital consolidates.

Final Thoughts

The space infrastructure market offers a clear split: giants like SpaceX dominate connectivity and deep-space rockets, while specialized players like Rocket Lab, AST SpaceMobile, and Intuitive Machines capture high-margin defense, lunar logistics, and telecom niches.

Spreading capital across both layers—pairing ASTS's cash reserves and carrier deals with RKLB's defense contracts—offers a solid framework to ride this tech cycle. Using high-liquidity stock futures helps execute these trades efficiently. Still, success demands strict risk control and a solid grasp of launch schedules.

The AI boom in the U.S. stock market continues to run hot, with supply chain bottlenecks, foreign investment, and policy catalysts weaving together to form the most compelling narrative. Against this backdrop, a select few highly influential “Shill Kings” have begun to steer market capital flows with their precise stock-picking success rates.From Reddit retail trading gurus to top-tier AI think tanks, from tech giant CEOs to high-profile political figures, whose market influence and stock-picking success rate comes out on top? WEEX Labs provides an in-depth analysis of the performance and strategic logic behind these four key “Shill Kings.” Serenity (@aleabitoreddit): The “Microscopic Shovel” Hunter of WSBAs a highly influential veteran trader on the WallStreetBets (WSB) subreddit, Serenity is a quintessential hardcore technical analyst and grassroots leader, known for his anime avatar and freely shared research.Serenity focuses intently on critical supporting segments within the NVIDIA AI chip supply chain. His core methodology centers on identifying key chokepoints in this ecosystem—specifically, the indispensable “screw-like” components essential to chip manufacturing and packaging. He targets irreplaceable small-cap upstream stocks in sectors such as photonics (CPO), optical interconnects, and HBM, which possess scarcity and pricing power.The performance of three core picks speaks for itself:SIVE (Sivers Semiconductors): Recommended 190 times; since the first public recommendation on March 16, 2026, the stock price has surged 19.6-fold. The company specializes in CPO lasers, which are indispensable core components in the AI optical interconnect sector.AAOI (Applied Optoelectronics): Recommended 123 times; the stock price has risen 5.10-fold since the first recommendation on January 26, 2026. It is a key supplier of high-speed optical modules for AI data centers.AXTI (AXT Inc.): Recommended 70 times, the stock has surged 9.02-fold since its first public recommendation on December 26, 2025. The company specializes in InP substrate materials, which feature extremely high technical barriers. Leopold Aschenbrenner: The 25-Year-Old Wall Street Stock Guru with an Institutional-Grade, Full-Chain AI StrategyAt just 25 years old, Leopold is arguably the current “chosen one” of the U.S. stock market. With a legendary track record at OpenAI and the FTX Future Fund, he has transformed the bold predictions from his forward-looking AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) paper, *Situational Awareness*, into a highly profitable investment portfolio with devastating precision.Not only are the holdings of his Situational Awareness LP fund wildly sought after on Wall Street, but his investment logic also targets the entire AI infrastructure chain. He believes the ultimate outcome of AI development is not just about algorithms, but a showdown between energy and computing power. Consequently, his portfolio is highly concentrated on companies transitioning from Bitcoin mining to data center computing power (such as Core Scientific and Riot Platforms) as well as upstream nuclear energy and electricity suppliers, creating a perfect closed-loop integration of cutting-edge technology and traditional infrastructure.Based on this grand framework, Leopold has executed an extremely clear “barbell strategy”:Long side (AI infrastructure): Betting on Bitcoin mining companies as the “precursors to AI data centers,” he heavily invested in Core Scientific (CORZ), Riot Platforms (RIOT), IREN, CleanSpark (CLSK), and others. These mining firms possess a vast number of high-density power sites and grid access rights, which can be directly converted into AI computing centers.Short side (traditional chip stocks): Simultaneously deployed put options with a notional value of approximately $7.46 billion to target NVIDIA ($1.57 billion), Broadcom ($1.01 billion), AMD, and the VanEck Semiconductor ETF ($2.04 billion).In terms of performance, the fund has delivered a total return of 267.46% since inception, with a Sharpe ratio of 3.58. Its average return over the past 12 months is approximately 265.37%, ranking 82nd among 488 hedge funds. NVDA (Nvidia) — A $18 Billion Investment in the Industry EcosystemAs the world’s largest AI computing leader by market capitalization, Nvidia Corp. does more than just sell GPUs; it binds the entire ecosystem through NVentures and direct equity investments. Its strategic investment portfolio—or every mention by CEO Jensen Huang in public—is interpreted by the market as an investment signal.According to Q1 2026 13F filings, the portfolio is valued at approximately $18.4 billion. So far this year, the company has publicly invested over $15 billion in AI infrastructure, with some companies mentioned by Huang in public standing out particularly:INTC (Intel) — 177.63% gain — A global leader in semiconductorsCRWV (CoreWeave) up 57.36% — AI cloud infrastructure providerCOHR (Coherent) up 86.74% — manufacturer of optical materials, lasers, and optoelectronic devicesNOK (Nokia) up 149.62% — telecommunications equipment giantLITE (Lumentum) Up 134.39% — Manufacturer of optical and photonic productsMRVL (Marvell) Up 145.47% — Semiconductor solutions providerJensen Huang excels at identifying and driving industry trends, and his predictions of “the next trillion-dollar company” often become market hotspots. Just as this article was being written, his call for Marvell to reach a trillion-dollar market cap once again demonstrated his immense influence, with MRVL surging over 26% in pre-market trading and hitting a record market cap of $243.5 billion. Trump: The “High-Frequency Trading President” in the White HouseAs one of the most influential figures in both political and business circles, Trump not only frequently makes trading calls regarding the cryptocurrency market, but his calls on the U.S. stock market also have the power to create wealth.According to disclosures from the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, Trump executed a total of 3,642 securities transactions in Q1 2026, with a transaction value ranging from approximately $220 million to $750 million, averaging about 58 trades per trading day. What has drawn even more market attention is his precise “buy first, then promote” trading strategy:Dell: On February 10, Trump’s personal account purchased between $1 million and $5 million worth of Dell stock; three months later, on May 8, he publicly urged people at the White House to “go buy a Dell—they’re great,” causing Dell’s stock to surge by about 14% during trading and hit an all-time high. This came shortly after the Dell family had pledged $6.25 billion to the “Trump account.”Palantir (PLTR): On April 10, Trump directly mentioned the stock ticker symbol on Truth Social, stating that it had “proven to have strong combat capabilities and equipment.” The stock price surged 3.6% during trading, adding approximately $10.5 billion to its market capitalization.Intel (INTC): Since early March, he has been buying Intel in batches, creating a dual exposure through his personal account and government holdings (the U.S. government purchased a 9.9% stake in August 2025 at approximately $20.47 per share). Since then, Intel has risen by about 150%.Furthermore, Trump’s ability to influence macroeconomic narratives has translated into tangible market movements—he once posted announcing a “U.S.-Iran ceasefire,” which directly triggered a plunge in oil prices and a rebound in U.S. stocks; he also posted during a market panic stating “now is an excellent time to buy,” followed by an announcement suspending most tariffs, resulting in a 9.5% single-day surge in the S&P 500. This ability to issue trading signals with insider-level precision is something Wall Street cannot replicate. Conclusion: Is Serenity the ultimate trading signal king?Based on the data, all the top trading signal providers have deeply integrated AI infrastructure and each has its own strengths:In terms of post-recommendation gains: Serenity’s 19.6x return (SIVE) is unmatched; Trump’s 14% single-day surge shows strong explosive power but lacks sustainability.In terms of win rate: Serenity leads significantly with 88.6%, backed by a sufficient sample size (35 stocks), ensuring high statistical reliability.In terms of capital size and management capabilities: Leopold manages $13.67 billion, with a cumulative return of 247.81% and a Sharpe ratio of 3.32—performance on par with professional institutions; Nvidia has publicly invested over $15 billion in AI infrastructure, resulting in massive paper gains.Regarding the advantage of information asymmetry: Trump possesses policy-making authority and access to insider information, but retail investors cannot replicate this, and there are ethical and legal risks involved. td {white-space:nowrap;border:0.5pt solid #dee0e3;font-size:10pt;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;vertical-align:middle;word-break:normal;word-wrap:normal;}SerenityLeopoldNvidiaTrumpRole Reddit WSB traderFormer OpenAI researcher/hedge fund manager Global chip giant Current U.S. PresidentReturns/GainsPersonal cumulative return: 38xFund total return: +267.46%Supply chain stocks up 57%–178% year-to-dateMany recommended stocks up 10%–150%Trade Accuracy31 out of 35, approx. 88.6% 14F holdings currently being verifiedNon-proactive trading callsAlmost every mention triggers immediate market movementAsset TypesNVIDIA upstream “screw” small-cap stocks Bitcoin mining firms/AI power stocks + chip put optionsAI industry chain partners U.S. manufacturing/tech giantsStyle TagsDeeply mining “bottlenecks”Macro “Barbell Strategy” for Computing PowerIndustrial EmpowermentSentiment and PowerTrading CharacteristicsEarly Positioning + Repeated Calls (SIVE made 190 calls) Hedge Fund 13F Quarterly Disclosures Passive Position MappingBuy First, Promote Later + Government Policy SynergyInfluence Mechanisms Community Consensus-Driven Institutional Capital Follow-ThroughIndustry Cycle Resonance Trinity of Policy + Capital + Presidential AuthorityFrom the perspective of ordinary investors seeking reliable, trackable, and consistently high-win-rate guidance, Serenity is currently the most noteworthy “signal provider” on the market—with a transparent research framework, high signal frequency, clear investment logic, and all information available to the public for free. WEEX Coming Soon: Direct Access to U.S. Stocks, One-Click Copy Trading of Top SignalsWhile you’re following these top signal providers, WEEX is set to launch a trading section offering direct access to U.S. stocks, allowing users to invest directly in thousands of U.S. stocks—from tech giants like NVIDIA and Tesla to small-cap “cogs in the supply chain” identified by Serenity—all in one place.Switch freely between your crypto holdings and the world’s highest-quality U.S. stock assets.⏳ Stay tuned for the WEEX U.S. Stock Trading Section, pumping soon. Risk DisclosureWEEX Labs would like to remind you: A high win rate does not equate to zero risk; Serenity’s four losing trades also experienced significant drawdowns.

Key Takeaways:AI has shifted from software to physical infrastructure — data centers, servers, power, and coolingSix stocks dominate the 2026 AI data center buildout: NVDA, AMZN, MSFT, AMD, ORCL, SMCIPower and cooling are now the binding constraints, not chips or capitalTrade these AI stocks on WEEX TradFi using USDT-margined perpetual contractsWhat Is the Best AI Stock to Buy in 2026?

If you're asking "what AI stock should I invest in" right now, you're not alone. The 2026 AI trade has moved away from pure software plays. The real money is flowing into physical infrastructure — data centers, AI servers, power systems, cooling, and networking.

Here's the reality: hyperscalers can't build capacity fast enough. Amazon, Microsoft, and Google are spending hundreds of billions on AI data centers. Cloud backlogs are larger than available compute. And the binding constraints are no longer GPUs — they're power, cooling, and land.

This article breaks down the 6 best AI data center stocks for 2026, their core roles in the buildout, and how you can trade them on WEEX TradFi smoothly.

Why AI Data Center Stocks Matter in 2026

Four structural forces are driving the AI data center cycle:

Hyperscaler capex has reached industrial scale. Amazon, Microsoft, and Alphabet are expected to spend hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure in 2026. This is no longer a cloud software story. It's a physical buildout that benefits the entire data center ecosystem.Cloud backlogs exceed available capacity. Microsoft has reported over $80 billion in unfulfilled Azure orders. Customers are committing to future AI capacity before it exists. The market's focus has shifted from near-term margins to capacity visibility.Power and cooling are the real bottlenecks. AI data centers consume massive electricity. In many regions, grid access and interconnection timelines are slowing expansion more than capital availability. Companies with secured power access now have a strategic advantage.AI servers are becoming highly specialized. High-density racks, liquid cooling, and faster networking are essential for training and inference. This benefits companies that supply or operate the physical infrastructure layer.The 6 Best AI Stocks to Watch in 2026

Here's the list. Each stock captures a different part of the AI infrastructure stack.

NVIDIA (NVDA)

Core role: GPU compute + CUDA software ecosystem

NVIDIA remains the central compute supplier for AI data centers. Its GPUs power most frontier training workloads. CUDA keeps developers, AI frameworks, and enterprise infrastructure tied to NVIDIA hardware.

Q1 FY2027 results: Revenue hit 81.6billion,adjustedEPS81.6billion,adjustedEPS1.87. Both beat consensus. The Vera Rubin platform launches in H2 2026 and is expected to remain supply-constrained throughout its lifecycle.

The moat: Developer ecosystem. Hyperscaler custom silicon may reduce GPU reliance for some inference workloads, but most AI frameworks optimize for CUDA first.

Risk: Custom chips from AWS, Google, and Microsoft could gain inference share over time, putting pressure on NVIDIA's pricing power.

2026 outlook: Still the most direct large-cap AI compute play. Market cap near $5.4 trillion. Rubin ramp is the next major catalyst.

Amazon (AMZN)

Core role: AWS + custom silicon (Trainium, Inferentia)

Amazon is the largest hyperscale cloud platform by absolute scale. AWS is aggressively expanding AI capacity as enterprise demand accelerates.

The thesis: AWS reached an annualized revenue run rate of 142 billion. AWS AI revenue now runs a troughly 15 billion annually, up from about $5 billion entering 2025. Trainium 2 and Inferentia 3 give Amazon a vertically integrated custom silicon roadmap.

Risk: If AI revenue growth fails to keep pace with rising capex, free cash flow pressure could trigger multiple compression.

2026 outlook: Strongest monetization of AI infrastructure among hyperscalers.

Trade Amazon (AMZN) futures on WEEX TradFi

Microsoft (MSFT)

Core role: Azure cloud + OpenAI infrastructure

Microsoft sits directly behind much of the frontier AI workload growth. Its OpenAI partnership gives unique exposure to large-scale model training and inference demand.

The advantage: Breadth across the AI stack — Azure infrastructure, OpenAI model access, Copilot applications, developer tools, and custom silicon (Cobalt CPUs, Maia AI accelerators).

Risk: Investors are still digesting the scale of the capex commitment, even as demand remains supply-constrained.

2026 outlook: Azure growth remains capacity-constrained. The $80B backlog provides high revenue visibility.

Trade Microsoft (MSFT) futures on WEEX TradFi

Advanced Micro Devices (AMD)

Core role: AI accelerators + EPYC server CPUs

AMD is the primary commercial alternative to NVIDIA in AI accelerators. Its EPYC server CPU franchise gives it a strong position inside data center infrastructure.

Q1 2026 results: Revenue reached 10.3billion,up3810.3billion,up385.8 billion. Management guided Q2 revenue to roughly $11.2 billion, above consensus.

The underappreciated angle: Agentic AI workloads increase CPU requirements for every accelerator deployed. AMD expects server CPU revenue to grow more than 70% in 2026. The multi-year Meta agreement to deploy up to 6 gigawatts of AMD Instinct GPUs across its AI infrastructure is a major catalyst.

Risk: MI450 execution and continued EPYC share gains are the key focus areas.

2026 outlook: Shares up roughly 66% YTD. The main question is whether AMD can take meaningful inference share from NVIDIA.

Oracle (ORCL)

Core role: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure + Stargate AI partnership

Oracle has transformed from an enterprise database company into one of the fastest-growing AI cloud infrastructure names. The Stargate partnership with OpenAI is the main driver.

Q3 FY2026 results: Total revenue reached $8.9 billion. OCI revenue surged 84% to $553 billion.

The opportunity: Oracle is constructing AI data center capacity across Texas, New Mexico, Wisconsin, and Michigan as part of the Stargate buildout.

The risk: Fiscal 2026 capex is expected to reach roughly $50.6 billion, pushing free cash flow deeply negative as Oracle invests ahead of revenue conversion.

2026 outlook: High-growth, high-risk. The $553B RPO provides visibility, but backlog conversion depends on power and construction timelines.

Trade Oracle (ORCL) futures on WEEX TradFi

Super Micro Computer (SMCI)

Core role: AI server integration + liquid cooling systems

Super Micro builds complete rack-scale AI systems that integrate GPUs, CPUs, networking, memory, and liquid cooling. Its direct liquid cooling position is critical as high-density AI data centers require better thermal management.

The catch: Q3 FY2026 included a $2.25 billion revenue miss versus consensus, mainly due to timing delays in data center orders. Margins showed improvement, but the miss spooked the market.

The risk: SMCI has faced delayed filings, auditor changes, accounting concerns, and headline risk. Shares now trade around 35,farbelowtheMarch2024highof35,farbelowtheMarch2024highof118.81.

2026 outlook: High-beta AI server stock. Massive upside if rack-scale AI demand accelerates. Significant downside if execution problems continue.

Risks to Know Before Trading AI Stocks

These stocks offer exposure to a massive infrastructure cycle, but they carry real risks:

Hyperscaler capex execution risk — Amazon, Microsoft, and Oracle are spending record amounts. If AI revenue growth lags, free cash flow pressure could trigger sharp multiple compression.Custom silicon risk for NVIDIA — AWS Trainium, Google TPU, Microsoft Maia, and Meta MTIA are all designed to reduce reliance on NVIDIA GPUs. If custom chips gain inference share faster than expected, NVIDIA's margins could face pressure.Oracle backlog conversion risk — Oracle's $553B RPO is tied to AI infrastructure and Stargate. Any delay in data center construction or power availability could push out revenue recognition.SMCI execution and governance risk — Auditor scrutiny, compliance concerns, and order timing delays can create sharp earnings-related volatility.Power and grid bottlenecks — AI data center expansion is increasingly constrained by electricity access and interconnection timelines. Delays in power availability can push out capacity deployment for the entire sector.Leverage and liquidation risk — Data center stocks can move sharply on earnings and AI demand commentary. Traders using USDT-margined futures should manage position size carefully and always use stop-loss orders.Conclusion

The best AI stock to buy in 2026 depends on which part of the infrastructure stack you want exposure to. NVIDIA captures the GPU compute layer. AMD offers AI accelerators and server CPUs. Amazon and Microsoft anchor the hyperscale cloud thesis. Oracle provides high-growth cloud infrastructure through OCI and Stargate. Super Micro Computer offers direct exposure to rack-scale AI server deployment. Each stock carries a different risk profile.

For active traders, WEEX TradFi provides a crypto-native way to trade all six names using USDT-margined perpetual contracts. Conservative position sizing, leverage control, and stop-loss orders are essential before entering any trade. The AI infrastructure cycle is still early, but volatility remains high — manage your risk accordingly.

Apple remains a $4 trillion tech powerhouse — but traditional brokerages are no longer your only option. Here’s how to invest in 2026.

Key TakeawaysApple (AAPL) trades near its all-time highs, with analyst targets averaging $310 per share for 2026 — a potential 10%+ upside from current levelsYou can now gain exposure to Apple’s stock price 24/7 through WEEX TradFi perpetual futures — no brokerage account, no fiat deposit, no KYC hasslesUnlike traditional brokers, WEEX lets you trade Apple with USDT collateral, adjustable leverage (up to 100x), and the same interface crypto traders already use

Old Way: How to Buy Apple Stock Through a Brokerage

Before we explore better alternatives, here’s how traditional investors buy Apple shares:

Step 1: Choose a regulated brokerage (Fidelity, Schwab, Robinhood, etc.)Step 2: Complete identity verification and KYC (can take 2-5 business days)Step 3: Fund your account with USD via bank wire (another 1-3 days)Step 4: Buy AAPL shares during Nasdaq trading hours (9:30 AM – 4:00 PM ET)

The problem: This process assumes you have access to the U.S. banking system. For millions of global investors — particularly in Asia, Africa, and Latin America — opening a U.S. brokerage account ranges from difficult to impossible.

Even for those who can, you’re locked into fixed trading hours, minimum share purchases, and no leverage unless you apply for a margin account.

New Way: Trade Apple Perpetual Futures on WEEX TradFi in 2026

WEEX TradFi offers a fundamentally different approach. Instead of buying shares through a broker, you trade USDT-margined perpetual futures that track Apple’s real-time stock price — 7x24, with no brokerage account required.

What Are Apple Perpetual Futures?

A perpetual futures contract is a derivative that tracks the price of an underlying asset — in this case, Apple (AAPL) stock — but with no expiration date. You can hold a position for minutes, days, or months without worrying about contract rollovers.

Unlike traditional futures, perpetuals use a funding rate mechanism to keep the contract price anchored to Apple’s actual stock price on Nasdaq. Every 4 to 8 hours, longs pay shorts (or vice versa) depending on whether the perpetual is trading at a premium or discount to the spot price.

For crypto traders, this structure is already familiar — it’s exactly how BTC and ETH perpetuals work. WEEX applies the same logic to Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, and other major stocks.

How WEEX TradFi Compares to Traditional Brokerages td {white-space:nowrap;border:0.5pt solid #dee0e3;font-size:10pt;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;vertical-align:middle;word-break:normal;word-wrap:normal;}FeatureWEEX TradFiTraditional BrokerAccount setupMinutes, using existing crypto accountDays to weeks, plus bank verificationTrading hours7X24Nasdaq hours only (9:30 AM – 4:00 PM ET)Minimum tradeFractional (as little as $1 USDT)1 full share (~$270+)LeverageAdjustable up to 50xNone without margin accountCollateralUSDT (no fiat needed)USD via bank wireShort sellingBuilt-in (go long or short)Requires margin account approvalGlobal accessYes — any country where crypto trading is permittedRestricted by brokerage licensingWhy WEEX TradFi Works Better for Global Investors

WEEX solves three major friction points that traditional brokerages can’t:

No Banking Dependency

You don’t need a U.S. bank account, a local bank that supports international wires, or any fiat currency at all. Deposit USDT from any wallet, exchange, or OTC desk — on-chain transfers take minutes, not days.

Trade When News Breaks

Apple reports earnings, the Fed announces rate cuts, or a supply chain disruption hits China — these events don’t wait for the Nasdaq opening bell. With 24/7 trading on WEEX, you can enter or exit positions immediately when news breaks, not 12 hours later.

Unified Portfolio Management

Your Apple position sits alongside gold, oil, forex, and crypto — all in one USDT account. No separate logins, no capital transfers between platforms, no fragmented margin.

How to Trade Apple Futures on WEEX in 2026: Step-by-Step GuideStep 1: Create Your WEEX Account

Go to WEEX official website and register with your email or phone number. Complete basic KYC verification — this typically takes 5-10 minutes.

Step 2: Deposit USDT

Transfer USDT to your WEEX account or buy directly via fiat or quick buy. Choose any network — ERC-20, TRC-20, BEP-20 — all are supported.

Step 3: Search for Apple Perpetual Contracts

Go to the WEEX Futures page and search for AAPLUSDT.

Step 4: Set Your Leverage

Adjust leverage from 1x to 50x. Lower leverage (2-5x) mimics spot exposure with less risk. Higher leverage amplifies both gains and losses — use cautiously.

You can access up to 100x leverage on AAPL.

Step 5: Choose Long or ShortLong if you expect Apple’s stock price to riseShort if you expect Apple’s stock price to fall

Unlike traditional brokers, short selling on WEEX requires no margin account approval or share borrowing — just click “Sell” and you’re short.

Step 6: Place Your Order

Choose between:

Market order — executes immediately at current priceLimit order — executes only at your specified priceStop-loss / Take-profit — automatic exit levels for risk management

Note: Always set stop-loss and take-profit before clicking buy.

Step 7: Monitor Funding Rates

Every 8 hours, a funding fee is exchanged between longs and shorts. Check the current rate before holding positions overnight. In most market conditions, funding rates are minimal (0.01% or less).

How to Trade Apple Futures Safely: 4 Strategies for BeginnersStrategy 1: Earnings Season Directional Plays

Apple reports earnings four times per year. The stock typically moves 3-7% on the day of release. With WEEX perpetuals, you can:

Enter a position minutes before the report (no settlement delays)Use 3-5x leverage to amplify the moveSet tight stop-losses (2-3%) to cap downsideStrategy 2: Hedging a Crypto Portfolio

If you hold significant crypto, Apple often moves independently of Bitcoin. During crypto drawdowns, Apple may hold steady or rise — especially if macro fears (inflation, rates) are driving the selloff. A long Apple position can offset crypto losses.

Strategy 3: News-Based Scalping

Apple is constantly in the news — product launches (iPhone 18 expected September 2026), supply chain updates, antitrust rulings, China relations. Each event creates intraday volatility. With 24/7 access, you can trade these headlines immediately, not the next morning.

Strategy 4: Diversification Without Brokerage Overhead

For crypto-native investors who don’t want to open a traditional brokerage account, WEEX TradFi offers a single interface for Apple, gold, oil, forex, and crypto. Rebalance across asset classes without leaving the platform.

Final Thoughts: Buy Apple Stocks on WEEX TradFi

Apple remains one of the most important companies in the global economy — 4 trillion in market cap, 400 billion in annual revenue, and a device ecosystem that touches billions of users. Gaining exposure to Apple’s price movements is a core position for many investors.

Traditional brokerages served the 20th century well. In 2026, you have better options: 24/7 trading, no banking friction, fractional access, and unified portfolio management with crypto and commodities — all from a single USDT account.

WEEX TradFi isn’t just an alternative to Robinhood or Fidelity. It’s a fundamentally different paradigm: stock exposure designed for the crypto-native world.

You’re not here for dividends. You’re here because Futu Holdings (FUTU) powers China’s online brokerage boom—and you want to know: too late, or just getting started?

By 2026, Futu’s twin apps (Futubull and Moomoo) made it a $21.7 billion force. But active traders know: while others wait for the NASDAQ bell, the smart crowd trades FUTU futures 24/7 on crypto exchanges.

This guide covers: what FUTU futures are, how TradFi perpetual contracts work, and how to trade them without a traditional broker account.

What Is Futu Holdings

Futu Holdings is the parent company behind Futubull and Moomoo — two digital brokerage platforms dominating Hong Kong, Singapore, and increasingly the US market .

The company makes money three ways:

Brokerage commissions from every trade users placeMargin financing interest when traders borrow to leverage upWealth management fees from fund products

As of May 2026, FUTU trades around 124–124–155 per share, with a 52-week range between 96.27 and 202.53 . The stock is volatile — exactly what futures traders want.

FUTU Recent earnings snapshot (Q4 2025):

EPS: 3.07(beatestimatesby3.07(beatestimatesby0.01)Revenue: 827.15million(above827.15million(above788.73M expected)Next earnings (Q1 2026): estimated June 4, 2026What Are FUTU Futures

Traditional futures are contracts to buy or sell an asset at a predetermined price on a specific future date. They expire. You have to roll them over. It’s a headache.

FUTU futures on WEEX Exchange work differently.

What you’re trading is a perpetual contract — no expiration date, no rollover, no physical delivery. You hold the position as long as you want and close it when you’re ready.

Here’s the key: you’re not buying Futu stock. You’re trading the price movement of FUTU using USDT as your margin. Go long if you think earnings will crush estimates. Go short if you think the Hong Kong market cools off.

What Is TradFi Perpetual Contracts

TradFi stands for Traditional Finance — stocks, commodities, forex, gold. TradFi perpetual contracts apply crypto’s most successful derivative structure (the perp) to these traditional assets .

How they work:

You deposit USDT. You choose an asset — FUTU stock, gold, crude oil, NASDAQ indices. You open a position with leverage. No broker account. No USD bank transfer. No tax forms. Just a crypto wallet and a few clicks .

Key differences from traditional futures:

td {white-space:nowrap;border:0.5pt solid #dee0e3;font-size:10pt;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;vertical-align:middle;word-break:normal;word-wrap:normal;}FeatureTraditional FuturesTradFi Perpetuals (on WEEX)Expiration dateYes — must roll overNo — hold indefinitelySettlement currencyUSD, HKD, etc.USDTTrading hoursMarket-specific sessions7月24日Physical deliveryPossible for commoditiesNever — cash settledAccount neededBrokerage accountCrypto wallet + exchange account

The funding rate mechanism keeps the perpetual price anchored to the real FUTU stock price. Every few hours, longs pay shorts or shorts pay longs depending on which side is more crowded .

This structure has exploded in 2026. Binance’s TradFi perp volume grew from 0.2% to 4.9% of major futures markets in just 90 days — with silver perps hitting 20.8% of COMEX volume at peak .

Why FUTU Futures in 2026Earnings volatility

Futu reports Q1 2026 earnings around June 4 . The stock moved 15-20% around past reports. With 10x leverage, that’s a 150-200% move — in either direction.

Hong Kong-China retail boom

Chinese retail investors are hungry for US stocks. Futu’s platforms are their primary gateway. As long as that demand holds, FUTU stays relevant.

24/7 access to NASDAQ names

Futu trades on NASDAQ. NASDAQ closes at 4 PM ET. If news drops at 9 PM, traditional traders wait until morning. FUTU futures traders act immediately .

No PDT rule

The Pattern Day Trader rule (25k minimum for frequent trading) doesn’t apply to crypto-based futures. Trade as much as you want with whatever capital you have.

Note: Stock is for investors. Futures are for traders.

How to Trade FUTU Futures on WEEX TradFi: Step-by-StepStep 1: Deposit funds

You need to deposit USDT (Tether) on WEEX. Buy USDT with fiat or transfer from your crypto wallet.

Step 2: Find the FUTU perpetual contract

Go to the WEEX Futures page and search for FUTUUSDT.

Step 3: Decide to go long or short

Go long: You expect Futu’s next earnings to beat estimates or Hong Kong retail activity to surgeGo short: You think valuation is stretched or competition (like Tiger Brokers) is eating market share

Step 4: Set leverage

Start small. 5x or 10x is plenty for beginners. 100x leverage means a 1% move against you liquidates your position. You can access up to 50x leverage on FUTU .

Step 5: Place stop-loss and take-profit

Always set stop-loss and take-profit before clicking buy. The market can gap overnight. Stop-losses save accounts.

Step 6: Monitor funding rates

Check the funding rate before holding overnight. If it’s high, you’re paying to keep the position open.

Key Risks to Know Before Trading FUTU FuturesLiquidation risk: Leverage magnifies losses. A 10% drop with 10x leverage = 100% loss. Your position closes automatically when margin runs out.Funding rate cost: If everyone is bullish on FUTU, longs pay shorts. Holding through high funding rates eats profits.Basis risk: The perpetual price tracks the real FUTU price via an index. In extreme volatility, the basis can widen before correcting.After-hours spreads: When NASDAQ is closed, FUTU futures still trade. Liquidity can thin out, widening spreads .Conclusion

The debate is whether Chinese retail demand for US stocks will cool off. The data says no. Hong Kong and Singapore trading volumes remain strong, and Futu's platforms keep adding users.

Even if competitors catch up, Futu holds the edge. Its app experience and liquidity keep traders locked in. For active traders: earnings volatility + 24/7 markets + leverage = opportunity.

In early 2026, the momentum was undeniable. Silver smashed through the $100 barrier, seemingly validating Robert Kiyosaki's most aggressive calls.

However, as of late May 2026, the metal has retraced sharply, hovering in the 73–73–80 range.

That volatility begs the question: Is the bull run over, or is this the last chance to buy before the predicted surge to $200?

While Kiyosaki doubles down on his “fiat is trash” narrative, the market mechanics have shifted. Here is the professional breakdown of the silver price 2026 outlook and why sophisticated traders are moving to platforms like WEEX TradFi to position for the next leg up.

Why This Correction Isn’t a Collapse

To understand if silver can reach $200, we have to respect the bear arguments first.

Recently, institutions like UBS have slashed price targets, citing a slowdown in Chinese solar panel demand and a retreat in ETF inflows. The physical deficit is shrinking, and high interest rates remain a headwind.

But here is the contrarian view. Kiyosaki’s $200 prediction isn’t based on current industrial demand alone. It’s based on currency debasement. With the Fed signaling shifts in monetary policy and the dollar index showing structural weakness, the “fake money” printing press is spinning up again.

Silver remains one of the most undervalued hard assets. Once the Fed pivots, the metal could gap higher violently.

The 2026 Supply Crunch vs. Green Demand

Ignoring short-term noise, the macro setup for silver price 2026 is still bullish. Even UBS admits the market is in a deficit — just a smaller one than last year.

Solar & EVs – The “low silver” tech isn’t ready for prime time. Photovoltaic silver paste consumption remains high.The catch‑up trade – Gold is at all‑time highs. Historically, when the gold‑to‑silver ratio is elevated, silver eventually plays catch‑up.

If you wait for $80 to hold before buying, you might end up chasing the price. The smart money is setting limit orders on the dip.

Should Investors Buy Silver Now?

Not everyone should buy silver just because Kiyosaki says so. It really comes down to how much risk you can stomach and what you're trying to achieve.

If you think inflation isn't going away and the dollar will keep sliding, silver makes sense as a long-term hedge. But don't kid yourself — this market is a rollercoaster. Prices can swing 10% in a single week, let alone a month.

That's why most seasoned investors don't go all in. They treat silver as one piece of a bigger puzzle — alongside stocks, crypto, or even cash. Spreading your chips around keeps you sleeping at night when silver decides to take a 20% dive.

Trade XAG on WEEX

Forget waiting for COMEX hours. To capitalize on overnight volatility driven by Asian markets or Middle East tensions, you need a platform that never sleeps.

This is why professional retail traders choose to Trade XAG on WEEX.

Unlike traditional brokers that freeze during news events, WEEX operates 24/7.

Liquidity: Allowing you to go long or short with leverage up to 400x.Real‑World Asset (RWA) access: Trade tokenized silver that directly tracks the spot price, avoiding the rollover costs of traditional futures.Security: Transparent proof of reserves and a “no KYC hassle” for crypto natives, bridging the gap between TradFi security and DeFi accessibility.

Conclusion: Trade Silver on WEEX TradFi

Let's be real — Kiyosaki's $200 call has gotten everyone talking. And sure, he's got some solid points backing him up: fiat currencies looking shaky, inflation still hanging around, and green tech hungry for more silver.

But here's the catch. Silver is wild. Always has been. Hitting $200 is a long shot, not a sure thing. So don't get emotional. Don't chase pumps. Manage your risk like a pro, or this market will eat you alive.

If you want to trade silver without the old-school broker headaches, WEEX TradFi gives you 24/7 access, deep liquidity, and the ability to hedge both crypto and hard assets in one place.

FAQ

Q: What is the current silver price trend for 2026?

As of late May 2026, silver is trading in a correction zone between 73and73and80, pulling back from highs above $100 due to easing supply deficits and rising interest rates.

Q: Is it safe to Trade XAG Futures on WEEX TradFi?

Yes. WEEX has established itself as a secure gateway between crypto and traditional finance. The platform provides proof of reserves and adheres to strict risk controls for its XAG perpetual futures.

Q: Will silver ever reach $100?

Silver has already broken the triple-digit mark. The precious metal made history by officially surging past $100 per troy ounce for the first time.

The Base Chain AI ecosystem is undergoing a structural overhaul, with Venice (VVV) having replaced Virtual Protocol as the dominant force in the ecosystem, driving a new wave of AI innovation and hype.   The evolution of the Base Chain AI ecosystem follows a clear trajectory of “out with the old, in with the new”:In 2024, Virtual Protocol dominated the ecosystem with its “AI Agent Launchpad” model, incubating over 50 Agents and reaching a peak market capitalization of $500 million;In 2025, projects like Clanker and BankrCoin began expanding into automated trading;By 2026, Venice had closed the loop between the “application layer and financial layer,” fully seizing control of the AI ecosystem.Venice’s breakthrough was no accident. Under Erik Voorhees’s architecture, the platform has shed the shadow of its early days as a DeepSeek concept coin, instead building a closed-loop business growth model supported by real user growth, subscription revenue, and sophisticated token economics: The explosive popularity of OpenClaw provided the initial user base, and the platform successfully “commoditized” AI inference costs by linking subscription revenue to VVV buybacks and burns, and allowing stakers to mint $DIEM tokens with actual API credit limits.As of May 2026, the Venice platform had over 2 million total users, 55,000 paid subscriptions, monthly revenue of $835,000 (growing at a monthly rate of 15%), and VVV had risen over ninefold since the beginning of the year, with a circulating market capitalization of approximately $795 million.Here are some noteworthy projects in the Venice ecosystem: Venice (VVV): A privacy-focused, censorship-resistant generative AI platform that has built a unique “privacy AI + token economy” ecosystem through its VVV token. Rather than training its own models, the platform leverages open-source model capabilities, emphasizing privacy protection and TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) proof technology. Through an innovative token mechanism, it empowers users to become participants and owners of the platform’s economy, serving as the core of the Venice ecosystem.Trade VVV/USDT Now Diem (DIEM): An innovative computing power equity tool within the Venice ecosystem, minted by staking sVVV, representing a permanent stake in the Venice platform’s computing power. Its core design is “1 DIEM = $1 in API credit automatically renewed daily.” This credit is valid indefinitely and can be used to pay for Venice’s AI inference services.Trade DIEM/USDT Now Dolphin Network (POD): A distributed AI inference and training network that allows users to contribute idle GPU computing power and earn POD token rewards. Its core value lies in providing distributed computing power support for Venice and jointly developing key AI models.Trade POD/USDT Now gitlawb (GITLAWB): A decentralized code collaboration platform offering GitHub-like functionality for AI agents, supporting code pushes and pull requests via cryptographic identities. It recently integrated Venice AI models, launched the OpenGateway free LLM API, and received sponsorship from Xiaomi MiMo and GMI Cloud.Trade GITLAWB/USDT Now It is clear that the strong performance of the Venice matrix signals that the Base AI sector is moving from “testing the waters” to “practical implementation.” Assets within its ecosystem, such as VVV, DIEM, POD, and GITLAWB, have begun to form a synergistic network encompassing “governance, computing power, tools, and services.”The boom in the Venice ecosystem has also directly boosted activity across the Base chain ecosystem. According to DeFiLlama data, on May 24, the 24-hour trading volume on Base chain DEXs surpassed that of Solana for the first time, reaching $1.217 billion.However, behind this boom, the fast-paced nature of rapid capital rotation and the sharp rises followed by declines in some assets remains evident. Historical experience suggests that Base’s underlying DNA is inherently “slow-burning,” relying on compliance infrastructure and EVM compatibility to follow a long-term trajectory. What has recently been overshadowed by liquidity spikes is the rhythm by which high-quality projects build fundamentals through genuine API calls, continuous token burns, and iterative developer contributions.In the future, whether this “Renaissance” of the AI ecosystem can weather both bull and bear markets will not depend on short-term narrative packaging, but rather on the granularity of technical delivery, the conversion rate of real revenue, and the ability to truly transition from “single-point explosions” to “ecosystem resonance.” We will continue to track on-chain data and developer activity, seeking certainty amid the noise. Reade More:Base AI Spot Challenge:Share $100,000 Latest Updates on WEEX

You've seen the screenshots on X. Millions of dollars riding on election outcomes, Oscar winners, even weather patterns. Polymarket is everywhere.

But here's the question that keeps popping up in Telegram groups, tax forums, and late-night crypto debates: Is Polymarket gambling?

Let's cut through the Web3 marketing speak and give you a straight answer.

How Does Polymarket Decentralized Prediction Market Work

You put money into a pool. You pick an outcome. If you're right, you get paid. If you're wrong, you lose everything. That's the core mechanic.

Polymarket runs on Polygon blockchain. No middleman holds your funds. Smart contracts handle the payouts. Technically, it's decentralized. But technically, a roulette wheel is also just a spinning disk with numbers.

The platform calls it "information discovery" or "crowd-sourced forecasting." Critics call it betting. Users call it whatever helps them sleep at night.

So is Polymarket considered gambling by regulators? That depends entirely on where you live.

Is Polymarket Legal

Let's start with the US. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has gone after prediction markets before. They don't like unregulated event-based binary options. Is Polymarket legal in the US? Sort of. The platform blocked US users after a 2022 CFTC settlement. But VPNs exist. People still use it.

Now here's where the answer gets clearer.

In May 2026, Indonesia blocked Polymarket. Not just restricted it. Full ban. The government's official statement called it "online gambling in disguise." That's a direct quote.

When a country with strict anti-gambling laws looks at Polymarket and says "that's gambling," you should pay attention.

So what country banned Polymarket recently? Indonesia is the biggest example. More will follow.

Prediction Market vs Gambling: Is There Actually a Difference?

Here's the argument Polymarket fans make:

"It's not gambling. It's hedging. Traders use derivatives to manage real-world risk. Farmers use futures to protect crop prices. This is the same thing."

Here's why that argument falls apart for 99% of users:

A farmer hedging corn prices actually grows corn. A airline hedging fuel prices actually flies planes. They have real exposure to those outcomes.

What real-world risk are you hedging by betting on who wins the next presidential debate? None. You just want to be right and get paid.

That's not hedging. That's gambling with extra steps. The difference between prediction market and gambling comes down to intent. If you have no underlying position to protect, you're not hedging. You're betting.

Do You Pay Taxes on Polymarket Winnings?

Short answer: yes. Long answer: it depends how your country classifies it.

Some tax authorities treat prediction market profits as capital gains. You bought a share for 0.30 and sold it for 1.00. That's a $0.70 gain. Report it.

Others treat it as gambling winnings. Different rates. Different rules. Sometimes no reporting threshold at all.

The question "is Polymarket a gambling income" matters because of how you file. A CPA who understands crypto is not optional here. Guessing gets people audited.

Bottom line: the IRS (or your local equivalent) doesn't care what you call it. They want their cut.

Can Trading Be Considered Gambling?

People ask this a lot. And the honest answer is: it depends how you trade.

Buying an index fund and holding for 20 years? That's investing. Buying a stock because you read a 10-K and understand the business? That's also investing.

Buying a binary option that expires in five minutes based on a news headline you saw on X? That's gambling. You just found a faster way to lose money.

Polymarket sits right in the middle of this blurry line. It uses trading vocabulary—"buying shares," "order books," "liquidity"—but applies it to zero-sum event betting.

The vocabulary doesn't change the math.

Final Thoughts: Is Polymarket Gambling?

If it looks like betting, acts like betting, and regulators call it gambling, it's gambling.

Polymarket has a slick UI and runs on blockchain. That doesn't change the core mechanic. You wager money on an uncertain outcome. Someone else takes the other side. Winner gets paid. Loser gets nothing.

That's not investing. That's not hedging. That's a bet. Use it if you want. Just don't lie to yourself about what it is.

FAQ

Q: Is Polymarket considered gambling or trading?

A: Under most legal frameworks, it's gambling. Traditional trading involves buying assets with intrinsic value. Polymarket involves wagering on zero-sum, time-bound events. If you're wrong, you lose everything. That's betting, not investing.

Q: Is Polymarket legal in the US?

A: Not exactly. Polymarket settled with the CFTC in 2022 and blocked US users. But people use VPNs. The legal risk is on the platform, not individual users in most cases—but check your local laws before touching it.

Q: Do you have to pay taxes on Polymarket winnings?

A: Yes. Most tax authorities expect you to report profits. Classification varies: some treat it as capital gains, others as gambling winnings. Talk to a CPA who understands crypto. Don't guess.

Q: What is the difference between Polymarket and traditional gambling sites?

A: The technology and terminology. Polymarket runs on blockchain and uses trading language ("shares," "liquidity"). Traditional gambling sites use "bets" and "odds." The underlying mechanic—wagering money on uncertain outcomes—is identical.
