In a move reflecting the accelerating integration of traditional assets into crypto ecosystems, Bitget has announced significant updates to its collateral framework. The exchange has enabled 15 tokenized stocks and ETFs to be used as margin collateral for USDT-margined futures trading. These new options include tokenized versions of major tech giants such as Apple, Tesla, and Nvidia, aiming to enhance capital efficiency for traders utilizing Unified Trading Accounts.
This initiative comes as Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization gains momentum, with exchanges seeking to bridge the gap between traditional equities and digital derivatives. Compared to peers like Binance that primarily focus on stablecoins and major cryptos for collateral, Bitget’s move places it in direct competition with hybrid trading providers. Per market data, integrating high-liquidity stocks like NVDA and AAPL offers traders greater flexibility in portfolio management without necessitating the liquidation of equity positions.
