Bitget Lets 15 Tokenized U.S. Stocks and ETFs Back USDT‑Settled Futures

The change should improve capital efficiency by allowing 1:1 rTokens to count toward USDT‑futures margin without conversion.

Overview

  • Bitget implemented the change on June 4, allowing 15 rTokens such as rAAPL, rTSLA, rNVDA, rMSFT, rQQQ and rSPY to serve as collateral for USDT‑margined futures under its Unified Trading Account.
  • Under Multi‑Asset Mode these tokenized securities can contribute directly to margin requirements so traders can hold equity‑linked tokens while keeping futures positions open.
  • Bitget said the rTokens are backed 1:1 by U.S. stocks and ETFs held through regulated broker‑dealers and that reserve attestations are performed by The Network Firm.
  • The move builds on Bitget’s May launches — the Reality tokenization platform and xStocks integration in Bitget Wallet — which expanded access to tokenized stocks, ETFs and other real‑world assets.
  • Bitget frames the update as a way to improve liquidity and capital use across spot and derivatives, and the company says its tokenized products have processed over $30 billion in trading volume since 2025.
