Access to US shares in Chile has generally run through local brokerages with international offerings, foreign brokers, or funds tracking US indices, each carrying FX conversion, custody and minimum-investment considerations. Tokenized US stocks change this by delivering direct 1:1 exposure to the underlying equities, self-custodied from about $1.

What Chile investors should know
Funding
Chilean investors typically obtain USDC through established local crypto exchanges and P2P on-ramps that swap pesos for stablecoins into a self-custody wallet. Dollar-stablecoin usage has grown steadily as a store of value.
Currency & FX
The local currency is the Chilean peso (CLP). Because settlement on GM Markets is in USD stablecoins, the investor bears FX exposure between the peso and the US dollar.
Local market
Chile's principal exchange is the Santiago Stock Exchange (Bolsa de Santiago), trading in local hours. Tokenized stocks, however, trade 24/5 on-chain outside that schedule.
Tax
Gains may be taxable under Chilean rules, and the classification of tokenized securities may not mirror that of ordinary shares. Investors are encouraged to seek advice from a local tax professional.
Yes. Through tokenized stocks on GM Markets, investors in Chile can buy US stocks and ETFs backed 1:1 by real shares, funded with stablecoins, from $1, without a US brokerage account.
