Bitget has launched Stocks 2.0, an upgraded tokenized equity product offering 36 assets tied to major U.S. stocks and ETFs, including Apple and Nvidia. The exchange says the product is designed to improve liquidity, transparency, and capital efficiency for traders. The move comes as tokenized stock trading volume has topped $1 billion.
A lineup of 36 U.S. stock tokens
Stocks 2.0 includes 36 stock-linked assets that track the price of well-known U.S. equities and ETFs. Among them are shares of Apple and Nvidia, two of the most heavily traded stocks on Wall Street. The tokens are meant to give users exposure to these assets on Bitget's platform, combining the liquidity of traditional markets with the efficiency of blockchain technology.
Bridging crypto and traditional finance
Bitget is targeting users from traditional finance, or TradFi, with this product. By offering tokenized stocks, the exchange hopes to attract investors who may be hesitant to enter crypto but want exposure to U.S. equities through a familiar trading interface. The upgrade focuses on better capital efficiency and transparency, key factors for institutional and retail investors alike.
Tokenized volume passes $1 billion
The broader market for tokenized stocks has been growing. Trading volume across these assets has exceeded $1 billion, according to industry data. Bitget's launch taps into that momentum, offering a platform for users to trade tokenized versions of some of the largest companies and funds in the world.
With Stocks 2.0, Bitget is betting that tokenized equities will appeal to users seeking exposure to U.S. markets without leaving the crypto ecosystem. The product is now available on the exchange.
