Bitget CEO: Weekend Trading Volume of U.S. Stock Tokens Surges 10x Amid Sudden Shift in Middle East Situation

Odaily reported that Bitget CEO Gracy Chen posted on platform X, noting that with the sudden escalation of the situation in the Middle East over the weekend, while traditional U.S. stock markets were closed and global traders were seeking outlets, Bitget’s U.S. stock tokens (rToken), as RWA assets supporting 7×24 trading, absorbed the overflow of trading demand. Data shows that rToken trading volume over the weekend reached 10 times that of the previous week, an increase of approximately 2.2 times compared to the average weekend volume in June. Among them, rNVDA, rMU, and rGOOGL ranked as the top three in trading volume, and the platform’s VIP users showed stronger weekend U.S. stock trading activity than the user average.

Gracy Chen emphasized that although the absolute trading volume of weekend U.S. stock tokens is still in its early stages, moments of market volatility have already highlighted the importance of 7×24 trading.
