Bitget US stock futures top $15bn in cumulative trading volume
Trading in tokenised US equities on the crypto exchange has been led by Tesla, Meta and Apple as more than one million users engage with stock futures since launch.
Bitget said cumulative trading volume in its US stock futures products has exceeded $15 billion, marking rapid growth since the product launched in September.
According to the company, trading has been dominated by Tesla, which has generated $5.4 billion in volume. Meta followed with $3 billion, while Apple accounted for $1.7 billion.
Bitget said it will extend a 90% fee discount across all stock futures pairs until 30 April, reducing trading fees to as low as 0.0065%. The move is aimed at sustaining momentum and encouraging broader participation in its tokenised equities offering.
Since launch, more than one million users have traded tokenised stock products on the platform, the company said. Bitget added that traders are using stock futures to gain 24/5 market access, benefit from on-platform settlement and operate within a unified trading environment that allows faster responses to market-moving news.
The company said demand reflects growing interest in hybrid trading models that combine traditional equity exposure with crypto-style infrastructure. Stock futures, in particular, allow users to trade outside standard US market hours while avoiding the need to move capital between platforms.
Bitget said the growth supports its Universal Exchange (UEX) strategy, which aims to consolidate multiple asset classes within a single trading ecosystem. The platform now serves more than 125 million users globally and provides access to over two million crypto tokens.

Beyond cryptocurrencies, Bitget offers more than 100 tokenised stocks alongside exchange-traded funds, commodities, foreign exchange and precious metals, including gold. The company operates across more than 150 regions, positioning itself as a global multi-asset trading venue.
The expansion of tokenised stock futures comes as exchanges compete to capture traders seeking continuous market access and simplified settlement, blurring the line between traditional finance and digital asset markets.
