In Guyana, exposure to US shares has generally depended on international brokerage accounts, with FX conversion, custody and paperwork to manage. Tokenized US stocks simplify this by delivering direct 1:1 exposure to the underlying equities, self-custodied from around $1.

What Guyana investors should know
Funding
Guyanese investors can obtain USDC through crypto exchanges and P2P on-ramps that convert local currency into stablecoins held in a self-custody wallet. Access to dollar-denominated value is a common motivation.
Currency & FX
The local currency is the Guyanese dollar (GYD). As GM Markets settles in USD stablecoins, the investor carries FX exposure between the Guyanese dollar and the US dollar.
Local market
The Guyana Stock Exchange is the national market and operates during local hours, while tokenized stocks trade 24/5 on-chain outside those hours.
Tax
Gains may be taxable under local rules, and tokenized securities might be classified differently from ordinary shares. Investors should seek guidance from a qualified local tax professional.
