DePix is not just a way to move reais with privacy. It can also be your gateway to digital investments. With a few steps, you can turn Brazilian reais into bitcoin, into tokenized assets on the Liquid Network, or even into tokens representing American stocks on other blockchains.

In this article, we will explore three investment paths that start with DePix: buying bitcoin, accessing tokenized assets on the Liquid Network, and investing in tokenized US stocks using USDT.

Investing in bitcoin with DePix

Bitcoin is the most well-known digital asset in the world. With a supply capped at 21 million units and a decentralized network that operates without relying on governments or banks, it has established itself as a digital store of value. In recent years, bitcoin has attracted not only technology enthusiasts but also institutional investors, pension funds, and even governments.

Buying bitcoin using DePix is straightforward and can be done directly in the SideSwap wallet, without a centralized exchange, without KYC, and with self-custody from the very first moment.

Step by step:

  1. Visit the DePix App and generate a Pix QR code for the amount you want to invest.
  2. Make the payment via Pix. Within 24 hours, the equivalent amount in DePix will appear in your Liquid wallet (SideSwap).
  3. In SideSwap, access the swap function and exchange DePix for L-BTC (Liquid Bitcoin).
  4. Done. You now hold bitcoin on the Liquid Network, under your own custody.

The L-BTC you receive is real bitcoin, represented on the Liquid Network at a 1:1 ratio. Each L-BTC is backed by BTC held in a multisig wallet managed by the Liquid Federation, composed of over 65 companies in the Bitcoin ecosystem.

If you prefer to hold bitcoin on the main network (mainchain), SideSwap offers a peg-out option: you send L-BTC and receive BTC at the address of your choice, with a fee of approximately 0.1%. However, for many purposes, keeping L-BTC on the Liquid Network is more advantageous, with faster and cheaper transactions and superior privacy thanks to Liquid’s confidential transactions.

Why invest in bitcoin:

  • Limited supply: Only 21 million bitcoins will ever be mined. This programmed scarcity contrasts with fiat currencies, which can be printed without limit by central banks.
  • Self-custody: When you hold L-BTC in your Liquid wallet, the private keys are yours. Nobody can freeze, seize, or block your funds.
  • Historical appreciation: Despite short-term volatility, bitcoin has shown consistent appreciation over four-year cycles, outperforming most traditional asset classes.
  • Decentralization: The Bitcoin network operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without depending on any institution.

It is important to remember that bitcoin is a volatile asset. The price can drop significantly in the short term. Only invest what you can afford to hold for a long period without needing to sell at unfavorable moments.

Tokenized assets on the Liquid Network: eNor Securities

Beyond bitcoin, the Liquid Network hosts a growing ecosystem of tokenized assets, also known as RWAs (Real World Assets). These are digital representations of traditional assets such as stocks, bonds, and commodities, issued as tokens on the blockchain.

eNor Securities is a regulated exchange and member of the Liquid Federation that specializes in this market. In partnership with Backed Finance, eNor offers access to bTokens, which are tokens representing real-world assets traded directly on the Liquid Network.

What is eNor Securities:

eNor Securities is a regulated securities exchange based in El Salvador that provides a comprehensive platform for trading digital assets. As a member of the Liquid Federation since 2024, eNor integrates its services directly with the Liquid Network infrastructure, allowing investors to trade tokenized assets with the privacy and speed advantages that Liquid offers.

The platform offers services including cryptocurrency trading (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and others), tokenized asset trading (stocks, ETFs, treasury bonds), OTC services (trading desk for large volumes), secure digital asset custody, and tokenization advisory.

What are tokenized stocks:

Tokenized stocks are digital representations of real stocks, issued as tokens on a blockchain. When you buy a token representing an Apple share, for example, the issuer holds the actual share in custody, and the token you own reflects the value of that share. This allows you to trade stocks 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without depending on traditional stock exchange hours.

How to access eNor Securities:

Since eNor operates on the Liquid Network and accepts Liquid assets, the path from DePix is relatively direct. You can use DePix or L-BTC as a starting point to access the platform’s services. We recommend checking the eNor Securities website directly for accepted deposit methods and available assets, as offerings may change over time.

It is important to note that eNor Securities, as a regulated exchange, requires registration and identity verification. This is different from buying bitcoin in a peer-to-peer manner. When accessing regulated tokenized assets, the process is similar to opening an account at a traditional brokerage.

Tokenized US stocks via USDT

If you want to access an even broader market of tokenized stocks, including the largest American companies like Apple, Tesla, Nvidia, and Google, there is a path that involves converting DePix to USDT and using platforms on other blockchains.

What are tokenized stock platforms:

The tokenized stock market has grown significantly. In 2026, the sector already handles tens of billions of dollars. Platforms like Backed Finance (creator of xStocks), Ondo Finance, and exchanges like MEXC, Bybit, and Kraken offer tokenized stock trading pairs with USDT. This means that with stablecoins, you can buy and sell tokens representing shares of companies listed on American stock exchanges.

Backed Finance’s xStocks, for example, include tokens like TSLAX (Tesla), GOOGLX (Google), NVDAX (Nvidia), and SPYX (S&P 500 ETF). These tokens trade 24 hours a day and can be purchased with USDT.

Step by step: from DePix to tokenized stocks

  1. In SideSwap, swap DePix for USDt (Tether on the Liquid Network).
  2. Use a bridge service like P2P.Land or BrSwap.me to transfer your USDt from the Liquid Network to another blockchain (such as Ethereum, Tron, or Solana, depending on the platform you intend to use).
  3. Deposit USDT on the platform of your choice (MEXC, Bybit, Backed Finance, or another).
  4. Trade tokenized US stock tokens using USDT.

This process allows anyone, starting from reais via Pix, to access the American stock market in a fractional way (you can buy fractions of shares), without trading hour restrictions (24/7 trading), and with settlement in minutes rather than days.

Risks you need to understand

Transparency is essential when discussing investments, and there are real risks you need to consider:

Volatility: Bitcoin can swing 10% or more in a single day. Tokenized stocks reflect the volatility of the underlying assets, plus the inherent volatility of the crypto market.

Regulatory risk: The tokenized asset market is still in the process of being regulated in many jurisdictions. Rules can change, and platforms operating today may need to adapt or cease activities in certain regions.

Counterparty risk: When using tokenized stocks, you trust that the token issuer holds the real stock in custody. If the issuer faces financial or legal problems, the token could lose its backing.

No government guarantee: Unlike traditional investments in some countries, crypto assets and tokens are not protected by deposit insurance schemes such as the FDIC in the United States or the FGC in Brazil.

Operational complexity: The path from DePix to tokenized stocks on other blockchains involves several steps. Each step has costs (swap fees, bridge fees, trading fees) that should be factored in.

Invest wisely. Start with small amounts until you fully understand each step of the process. Never invest money you may need in the short term.

DePix as a starting point

What makes DePix special in this context is that it serves as a bridge between the Brazilian financial system and the digital investment ecosystem. With a simple Pix payment, you deposit reais and receive an asset on the Liquid Network that can be converted into bitcoin, tokenized assets, or USDT to access global markets.

All of this comes with the privacy that the Liquid Network offers in the initial stages and with self-custody from the very first moment. To learn more about how DePix works, read our article on What is DePix.
