After comparing different ways to trade stock exposure, the thing that keeps deciding it for me isn’t features. It’s cost structure.
When you’re active, fees quietly shape every decision. Scaling in, trimming size, rotating capital. Those choices feel very different when friction is removed.
Seeing how zero-fee onchain stock trading works during Onchain 0-Fee Stock Race (Phase 9) made that obvious. Not because it encourages more trades, but because execution feels cleaner when costs aren’t constantly in the back of your mind.
This is the kind of setup I’d honestly like to see Binance explore at some point if tokenized stocks become part of their roadmap. Binance users already think in terms of maker/taker fees, efficiency, and execution quality. Zero-fee windows for onchain stocks would fit that mindset naturally.
For now, it’s interesting to see platforms like Bitget experiment with this model. It highlights how much cost structure itself is a strategy, not just a detail.
Curious how others think about this. When you compare platforms, do fees still end up being the deciding factor for you?
