Bitget unveils app blending crypto & traditional finance


Bitget, the world’s leading Universal Exchange, has confirmed the global availability of its recently upgraded mobile app. The update features a side-by-side display of crypto and traditional financial markets on the homepage, a product evolution reflecting how traders increasingly move between asset classes within a single session.

Following the January rollout of TradFi trading, the updated interface expands access to stock-linked products, Forex, indices, commodities, and precious metals (such as gold and silver), all settled in USDT. With the upgrade now fully deployed, users globally can access a trading environment designed around the convergence of crypto-native and traditional financial markets.

Bitget’s tokenised TradFi thesis posits that crypto is evolving from a speculative asset class into a foundational global financial infrastructure.

While annual stock trading is currently estimated at $100–$130tn, this figure could reach $160–$200tn by 2030, with a significant share of stocks, credit, funds, and commodities shifting on-chain as Bitcoin solidifies its role in macro hedge portfolios.

As tokenised stocks increasingly route through crypto-market platforms, exchanges could facilitate 20–40 per cent of that flow. Bitget’s UEX strategy aims to establish the platform as a primary liquidity and distribution hub by expanding into tokenised stocks, FX, and commodities.

The firm’s internal base case targets 40 per cent of the tokenised stock activity, representing roughly $15–$30tn in tokenised-stock trading volume by 2030.

The upgraded layout consolidates all crypto products, including futures, spot, margin, on-chain, and earn, under a unified “Trade” tab, reducing friction for active traders.

In parallel, a dedicated TradFi tab provides streamlined access to gold, FX, indices, stock perps, and real-world asset tokens, significantly minimising navigation complexity.

According to Bitget CEO Gracy Chen, “Bitget is building for the trillion-dollar migration. As regulation matures and institutions bring products like treasuries on-chain, the direction is clear: crypto is becoming the settlement layer for everyday finance. Sooner than most people think, stablecoins and native assets won’t feel like ‘crypto’—they will simply be the backend infrastructure for global value movement. That is why our product experience has been rebuilt; on Bitget, TradFi is accessible with a single click, and our UI/UX flow cuts total steps by approximately 30 per cent compared to typical industry standards.

“Bitget has continued its evolution from a crypto-native exchange into a broader liquidity hub aligned with the migration of traditional assets on-chain.

“The platform currently captures 89.1 per cent of the global market share for Ondo’s tokenised stock tokens and reached record daily volumes of $6 bn in January 2026. With the upgraded app experience now live worldwide, Bitget’s UEX model stands as a practical demonstration of how crypto and traditional markets are increasingly operating within the same settlement framework,” Chen added.
