What are the options to invest in the real stock market with Bitcoin? For example, funds where you can buy in with Bitcoin or Bitcoin stock simulation games.

The winklevoss twins are working on a Bitcoin ETF, oh and you can buy stock in Overstock the online store but that's really all their is, cryptocurrencies tend to operate entirely seperate from other markets because that's how they were designed, plus moving anything from cryptocurrencies into the stock markets is a regulatory nightmare, so it's easier to just Buy Bitcoin and use that to buy into Bitcoin based companies than it is to get anything into USD markets.

sorry i thought you meant you want to trade 'real stocks' for a 'real company' on a mainstream market that are related to bitcoin.

not sure if a broker exists that will trade on the 'real' markets - bought with your bitcoins not fiat. there are retail traders that allow you to 'trade' the BTC price, like plus500. but (like most retail FX brokers) you dont actually buy/sell bitcoins themselves...

To clarify, I meant options to buy real stocks like Microsoft or IBM with Bitcoin.

Or alternatively a stock simulation game where you can buy and sell in-game stock-equivalents at reduced prices, for example 1% of the real price. If something like that doesn't exist it would be a cool idea to implement. Of course it would need a sync method, for example buy/sell prices synced daily to 1% of the real stock market.

Ever heard about bitisland? Its Bali bitcoin island project, this is not product like Microsoft or IBM. But you can buy share.

Counterparty have an unique assets you can buy too, usually they use Havelock investment.
