Cryptocurrency Exchange Shatters Trading Records
The global cryptocurrency platform Bitget has achieved a significant milestone, surpassing $5 billion in cumulative trading volume for its stock futures product line. This remarkable achievement comes just one week after the exchange crossed the $3 billion mark, demonstrating accelerating global interest in tokenized stock futures.
Leading Stocks Drive Trading Momentum
The surge in trading activity mirrors the strong performance of US stock markets, where AI-driven growth and impressive third-quarter earnings have captured trader attention. Among Bitget's extensive stock futures offerings, MicroStrategy (MSTR) emerged as the top performer with $1.4 billion in cumulative volume. Tesla (TSLA) followed closely with $1 billion, while Apple (AAPL) recorded $472 million in trading activity.
Bitget currently lists more than 30 USDT-margined perpetual futures connected to leading US stocks. The platform offers substantial leverage of up to 25x and highly competitive trading fees set at 0.0065%. To further encourage participation, Bitget has introduced a limited-time promotion featuring a 90% reduction in trading fees across all stock futures pairs, valid until January 31.
Universal Exchange Vision Takes Shape
This rapid growth reinforces Bitget's Universal Exchange (UEX) strategy, which aims to create a single platform where users can seamlessly transition between cryptocurrency products and traditional financial markets using one unified account. The expansion of stock futures, combined with tokenized stock tokens, moves Bitget closer to its objective of making global markets more accessible, understandable, and cost-effective for investors worldwide.
Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget, commented on the achievement: "Crossing $5 billion this quickly demonstrates that traders are genuinely adopting tokenized stock futures as integral components of their trading strategies. Stock futures provide users with cryptocurrency flexibility while maintaining exposure to the companies they monitor daily. This powerful combination perfectly aligns with what our Universal Exchange platform is designed to deliver."
As more investors seek methods to trade traditional assets with cryptocurrency-native speed, liquidity, and accessibility, Bitget continues to expand its offerings at the intersection of both financial worlds. The platform is actively building the financial infrastructure necessary for a new era of global investing that bridges conventional and digital asset markets.
Established in 2018, Bitget has grown to become the world's largest Universal Exchange, serving over 120 million users worldwide. The platform provides access to millions of cryptocurrency tokens, tokenized stocks, ETFs, and various real-world assets, while offering real-time pricing information for major cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP.
