What Is Four.meme's 4Stock?

4Stock is a new tokenized stock product from Fourmeme that lets users bring popular US stocks onto BNB Chain even before those stocks have an official bStock version, with each 4Stock backed 1:1 by the real underlying share. Fourmeme launched the product on September 8, 2026, extending its existing bStocks and Stock Memes system with a faster, community-driven way to get new equities on-chain. What Is 4Stock? 4Stock is described by Fourmeme as a pre-bStock tokenized stock product. It focuses on popular US stocks that do not yet have a corresponding bStock, giving those assets an earlier path onto BNB Chain. Each 4Stock is backed 1:1 by its underlying share. When someone applies to mint 4Stock, Fourmeme uses the submitted funds to buy the real stock through a managed account, then mints 4Stock based on the exact amount purchased and held. The flow is as follows: underlying stock, then 1:1 asset backing, then 4Stock on BNB Chain. How Does 4Stock Fit Into Fourmeme's Stock System? To understand 4Stock, it helps to know the two products it builds on. What Are bStocks? bStocks are tokenized US equities already live on BNB Chain, each backed 1:1 by a real share held with a custodian and issued as a BEP-20 token. Fourmeme integrated bStocks on July 31, 2026, starting with NVDAb, a tokenized version of NVIDIA stock. What Are Stock Memes? Stock Memes are memecoins that use a tokenized stock as their trading pair instead of BNB. Before 4Stock, a Stock Meme could only launch around a stock that already had a bStock. 4Stock removes that bottleneck by letting a trending stock get tokenized first, so a memecoin community does not have to wait for an official bStock listing before building around it. How Do You Mint 4Stock? Minting currently runs through a three-step, application-based process rather than instant, automated conversion. Send USDC to Fourmeme's designated 4Stock deposit wallet from the same address that will receive the 4Stock, then submit the transaction hash through the 4Stock Mint Form. The minimum request is 10,000 USDC equivalent. Fourmeme processes valid requests within 24 hours, buying the underlying stock at the market price available at execution. A 1 percent mint fee is deducted directly from the submitted USDC. Once the purchase settles, Fourmeme mints the matching amount of 4Stock and sends it to the user's wallet, typically within 24 hours of the USDC being received. Because stock prices move continuously, the final amount of 4Stock received can differ slightly from the initial estimate. Fourmeme says an automated minting system is coming, which would remove the manual, batch-based processing. What Happens When You Redeem 4Stock? A redemption mechanism is planned but not live yet.
