The exchange partnered with Ondo Finance in July to offer tokenized equities, ETFs, and money market funds through its Universal Exchange model.
Bitget currently supports over 100 tokenized stock products trading on a 24/5 schedule, enabling global access beyond traditional market hours.
The platform implemented fee-free spot trading for tokenized equities and up to 90% discounts on futures pairs to accelerate adoption.
Precious metals-linked products emerged as major volume drivers in December as gold and silver reached successive record highs in traditional markets.

Bitget's Onchain Trading Layer and Universal Exchange Model
Bitget's Onchain trading layer, launched in April, generated over $2.4 billion in cumulative volume by year-end across Solana, BNB Chain, Ethereum, Base, and Morph networks.
The platform charges a 0.5% transaction fee excluding gas costs, with all trades executed through custodial infrastructure while offering self-custodial options via Bitget Wallet.
The exchange's Universal Exchange model aims to consolidate centralized efficiency with decentralized accessibility and traditional financial products under unified infrastructure.
Market Trends and Future Outlook for Tokenized Assets
Block Scholes research analyst Thabib Rahman said tokenized asset volume grew exponentially in 2025 alongside crypto-friendly administration policies and institutional participation.
The broader tokenized stock market reached $1.2 billion in total capitalization as of December 2025, according to Token Terminal data.
Nasdaq filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to offer tokenized stocks, while Ondo Finance plans Solana-based launches and Coinbase indicated expansion into stock trading.
Bitget's model provides 24/7 trading availability, instant settlement, and fractional ownership compared to traditional brokerages that face geographic and time-zone constraints.
