What a tokenized SOXS holder owns
4 tokens issued by 4 programs track Direxion Semiconductor Bear 3X ETF, and each gives the holder something different. Ketju has a file on 4 of them; each row below links to the file, which quotes the issuer.
What the holder owns
One version on file gives the holder a claim on a real share that a custodian holds in its own name, with no vote:bStocks. 3 versions are notes or swaps that pay like the share and carry no rights in it: rTokens, Ondo Global Markets, Dinari dShares. None gives the holder the Direxion Semiconductor Bear 3X ETF share itself, and none carries SIPC protection in the wallet.
Who may hold it
No version on file is offered to US persons.
Who can freeze it
In 1 of the 4 programs with a readable contract, one private key can freeze, pause, or claw back holders’ tokens, or grant that power: Dinari dShares.
Every version, side by side

Market cap is CoinGecko’s figure on 2026-09-24, for the token itself and not for the share it tracks. The “Freeze key held by” column shows the weakest key that can freeze, pause, or claw back a holder, or grant that power, as Ketju read it from the chain.
