The cryptocurrency exchange Bitget has expanded its collaboration with Ondo, adding 98 new tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs to its platform, according to a press release.

The listing includes instruments from various categories:

  • short-term U.S. Treasury bonds (SGOV);
  • stocks from the technology, energy, industrial, medical, financial, and consumer sectors;
  • commodity ETFs — gold (GLD), oil (USO), copper mining (COPX), rare earth metals (REMX);
  • index funds (VTI), leveraged and inverse ETFs (TQQQ, SQQQ).

In total, Bitget offers over 200 tokenized stocks, including Apple, Tesla, Nvidia, and Alphabet. Settlements are conducted in the stablecoin USDT.

“The new generation of investors seeks easy access to cryptocurrencies and wants to engage with traditional financial instruments — stocks, gold, indices, and commodities. Over the next year, we will enhance this flexibility across a wide range of global assets, bridging the gap between crypto and traditional asset management,” said Bitget CEO Gracy Chen.

Trading can be initiated in the tokenized stocks section of the platform.

This expansion continues the strategy of a universal exchange (UEX) — a platform for trading crypto assets, tokenized securities, and on-chain tokens through a single interface.

It’s worth noting that the RWA project Ondo Finance and Ondo Foundation launched Ondo Global Markets in September. Initially, the platform's products operated on the Ethereum network, and by the end of October, they became available on the BNB Chain as well. In December, Bitget migrated its tokenized assets from Ethereum to BNB Chain.
