Bitget launches direct US stock connection service, enabling purchase of 10,000+ real US stocks

Odaily Planet Daily News: According to official news from Bitget, the platform has officially launched a direct US stock connection product called "Bitget US Stocks," allowing users to use USDC to directly buy and sell over 10,000 real US stocks and ETFs. This service executes settlements through a licensed US brokerage firm, granting users complete shareholder rights such as cash dividends and voting rights. It covers pre-market, regular trading, and after-hours sessions, and supports the seamless transfer of existing stock holdings from other brokerage platforms to Bitget. This move is another key step in Bitget's US Stock 2.0 strategy, following the launch of the Reality protocol and rToken US equity tokens in early June, aiming to provide a more intuitive trading interface for users accustomed to traditional brokerage experiences.

To coincide with the new product launch, Bitget has simultaneously introduced an accelerated US stock transfer plan. During the event period, users who transfer US stock holdings from external brokerages such as Futu, Tiger Brokers, moomoo, Longbridge, Webull, and IBKR to Bitget will have the chance to receive a transfer fee subsidy of up to $10,000. The registration period runs from June 22, 19:00 to July 10, 23:59 (UTC+8). Subsidies will be distributed to eligible users every Monday, and the transferred assets can be held or traded directly within the Bitget account.

On June 5th, Bitget announced the launch of US equity tokens under its compliant RWA protocol, currently supporting over 500 US stocks and ETFs, including SpaceX, Tesla, and Nvidia, with Assets Under Management (AUM) surpassing $50 million. By launching the direct US stock connection service, Bitget has further completed its US stock product matrix, offering a more intuitive trading interface and experience for users familiar with traditional brokerage platforms.
