What PALLX tracks
PALLX tracks abrdn Physical Palladium Shares ETF, a fund holding platinum, palladium, or a basket of precious metals in a vault. Its price follows the fund's share price, adjusted for how much of a share each token represents.
Platinum and palladium are used mainly in vehicle catalytic converters, and their markets are small, so prices can move sharply on changes in supply or demand.
About abrdn Palladium Shares
For too long, investing has come with barriers. Borders. Brokers. Limitations. It’s been complicated, costly, and — for millions — out of reach. xStocks were created to change that. xStocks are tokenized stocks. They’re backed 1:1 by the underlying assets, composable with DeFi protocols, compliant with EU regulations, accessible to non-US users, and provide a legal claim to the value of the stock. xStocks enable easy access to 120+ US Stocks and ETFs to regular users through top centralized and decentralized exchanges, and can be integrated with other DeFi protocols like any other token.

How PALLX works
PALLX is issued by Backed Finance. Backed Finance issues xStocks through Backed Assets (JE) Limited, which holds the underlying securities with custodians and handles minting and redemption for eligible clients.
What you hold is the token, not the underlying asset. PALLX tracks the price of abrdn Physical Palladium Shares ETF, but it doesn't give you shareholder rights or a direct claim on the underlying holdings. Minting and redemption are handled by Backed Finance for eligible clients under its own terms. Solflare is a self-custody wallet for holding and swapping PALLX, and it does not issue, back, or custody the token.
The price of PALLX on Solana is set by on-chain trading. Where liquidity is deep, it tends to stay close to the underlying price. Where liquidity is thin, a small swap can move the price and the gap to the underlying can widen.
The asset behind PALLX doesn't pay distributions, so the value of PALLX reflects price movement alone.
When can you trade PALLX?
PALLX can be swapped on Solana at any hour, but the fund it tracks trades only during US market hours. Outside those hours there's no live fund price, so the price of PALLX comes from on-chain trading alone and can drift from the fund's last close.
The scaling factor for PALLX
One PALLX represents 1/5 of a share of the underlying fund, so its price is roughly the fund's share price divided by 5. Nothing is missing; the unit is smaller, which makes the token easier to buy in small amounts.
