This gives crypto traders exposure to Tesla price movements without owning actual Tesla shares, using crypto capital and Binance Futures infrastructure. �
📌 2. This is not a native Tesla crypto coin
There is no official “Tesla coin” (a blockchain token with ticker TSLA or similar) that is being listed on Binance as a crypto asset for buying/selling like Bitcoin or Dogecoin.
The listed product is a futures contract — a type of trading instrument — not a coin or token you hold in your wallet. �
CoinNews
Older tokenized stock tokens existed years ago (in 2021 Binance offered stock tokens including TSLA), but that service was discontinued due to regulatory issues and is no longer active today. �
