Crypto trading platform Bitget Onchain introduces stock tokens to cryptocurrency investors
In a groundbreaking move, Bitget Onchain, a leading cryptocurrency exchange platform, has introduced support for trading tokenized stocks. This development allows users to build global portfolios in a decentralized setting, eliminating the need for separate wallets, private keys, or third-party bridges.
Bitget Onchain's integration with xStocks and custodians offers several key benefits over traditional financial markets. These advantages include 24/7 trading access, lower transaction costs, fractional ownership, borderless access, and full on-chain transparency.
24/7 Trading Access
Unlike traditional markets with fixed hours, tokenized stocks on Bitget can be traded almost round-the-clock (24/5), enabling investors in different time zones to trade anytime without waiting for market opening hours.
Lower Entry Barriers and Reduced Costs
Tokenized stocks allow fractional ownership, letting investors buy small portions of high-priced shares such as Apple or Tesla. Trading on Bitget typically involves reduced fees compared to traditional brokers, often limited to blockchain transaction (gas) fees without brokerage commissions.
Borderless and Local Currency Access
Investors in countries like Nigeria and Kenya can access leading US equities via Bitget Onchain using local currencies and crypto-native methods, avoiding foreign exchange hassles and brokerage mandates associated with international stock markets.
Instant Settlement and Transparency
Traditional stock trades settle over days, but tokenized stock transactions on blockchain settle instantly, with immutable and transparent on-chain records of ownership and trades ensuring security and auditability.
Integration with Trusted Custodians and Standardization Efforts
Bitget partners with reputable custodians and participates in the Global Markets Alliance by Ondo Finance, ensuring the tokenized stocks are backed 1:1 by actual shares and comply with regulatory standards. This increases trust and interoperability in the tokenized securities ecosystem.
Multi-Chain Support and Liquidity
Bitget Wallet supports storing and trading tokenized assets across multiple blockchains, offering users enhanced liquidity and access to a diverse range of tokenized real-world assets.
With this expansion, crypto users can gain exposure to globally recognized companies without relying on conventional financial intermediaries. Bitget Onchain supports leading blockchain ecosystems such as Solana, Base, and BNB Smart Chain.
New Avenues for Diversified Investment
Bitget Onchain offers a new avenue for diversified investment by integrating traditional equities with crypto markets. It supports a 24/5 trading model, catering to digitally native users who seek real-time access to both digital and traditional financial assets.
In addition to these benefits, Bitget Onchain offers features such as limit orders, real-time price alerts, and advanced analytics. The platform now allows trading of tokenized versions of major corporate equities, including Tesla (TSLAx), Nvidia (NVDAx), MicroStrategy (MSTRx), Apple (AAPLx), Circle (CRCLx), and the SP500 index (SPYx).
Launched in 2025, Bitget Onchain presents a hybrid architecture that merges a centralized trading experience with the benefits of decentralized asset management. It offers a fee-free trading environment for assets transfer and near-instant settlement times, making it an attractive option for investors seeking a more efficient and transparent approach to stock trading.
