Portuguese investors have typically reached US equities through Euronext Lisbon-listed instruments, pan-European neobrokers, or international brokers that layer on FX conversion, custody minimums, and cross-border paperwork. Tokenized stocks offer direct 1:1 exposure to the underlying US share, held in self-custody, from around $1.
Know before you fund
What Portugal investors should know
Funding
As a eurozone member, someone in Portugal can send euros by SEPA transfer to a euro-friendly on-ramp and convert them into USDC held in a self-custody wallet. From there the stablecoins are ready to fund tokenized-stock purchases.
Currency & FX
Portugal uses the euro (EUR), while GM Markets settles in USD stablecoins, so an investor here carries EUR/USD exchange-rate exposure on top of the performance of the stock itself.
Local market
The primary domestic venue is Euronext Lisbon, which keeps regular local trading hours. Tokenized stocks instead trade 24/5 on-chain, so exposure is available well outside those hours.
Tax
Portugal taxes investment gains, and the treatment of tokenized securities may not mirror that of directly-held shares. Because these rules can shift, confirm your situation with a qualified Portuguese tax adviser.
Yes. Through tokenized stocks on GM Markets, investors in Portugal can buy US stocks and ETFs backed 1:1 by real shares, funded with stablecoins, from $1, without a US brokerage account.
