How is selling ETH different from selling a stock that has dividends?

Two ways:

* The "stock" (token) is constantly spitting

* The "stock" grants the bearer both a continuous dividend as well as a vote on deciding what "work" (transactions) the "company" (chain) takes on.

Is there a real-world stock with these properties?
