That stock token might cost you 13% to buy.

Apple, Nvidia and Tesla all trade on Solana now. Several companies issue a token for each one, and they are not equally safe to touch. Parity checks the one you are about to buy.

AMDx is listed everywhere and looks normal.

Here is what a 1,000 dollar order in it actually does, measured against live liquidity.

You spend $1,000.00. $868.00 becomes your position and $132.00 is lost the moment the trade settles.

What Parity checks

Is it the real token?

Searching a ticker returns real tokens next to impostors using the same name. We keep a verified list and say which is which.

Can you get out?

Of the tokens we track, this many cannot be traded on-chain at all right now. We quote real order sizes and show the cost in dollars.

Who controls it?

This many can be moved out of your wallet by the issuer without your signature. 30 can be frozen.

Why we built it

Tokenized stocks exist so that someone without a US brokerage account can still own a share of Nvidia. That is a real and useful thing, and most of the volume for it now settles on Solana.

The problem is that every screen shows you a price and a buy button, and nothing else. It will not tell you that a token cannot be sold, that a pool is too thin to exit, or that the issuer kept the right to take the tokens back. All of that is public on-chain information that nobody puts in front of you.

Parity puts it in front of you, in one sentence, before you spend anything.

Questions

Why are there several tokens for the same stock?: Different companies each issue their own token for the same underlying share. They use different legal structures and trade in separate pools, so their prices and their liquidity are not the same. Nothing on a swap screen tells you which one you are looking at.
What does it mean that the issuer can freeze my tokens?: Most of these tokens are built with Solana's Token-2022 standard, which lets the issuer keep powers over tokens that are already in your wallet. Some can freeze your balance so you cannot sell. Some can move the tokens out of your wallet without your signature. We read this straight from the blockchain and tell you which applies.
Why do you say a token is a trap?: Because buying it costs you money immediately. If a pool is thin, a $1,000 order can lose more than $100 the instant it settles, and selling costs you again. The token still shows a normal price on every screen. We ask the aggregator for a real quote at real sizes and show you the damage in dollars.
Does Parity hold my money?: No. Parity never takes custody, never asks for your private key and never moves funds. You can use the whole site without connecting a wallet.
Where do your numbers come from?: Live quotes from the Jupiter aggregator and mint data read directly from a Solana node. We record a measurement every fifteen minutes and commit it to our public repository, so the history is timestamped and you can verify any figure we publish.
