Bitget CEO Open Letter: UEX is More Than Just an "Asset Supermarket"; Its Primary Value is Asset Efficiency First
Odaily Planet Daily News According to a mid-year open letter from Bitget CEO Gracy Chen, the first half of 2026 witnessed a significant structural change in user behavior on the platform: the peak trading volume of non-crypto assets approached 40% of Bitget's total trading volume; the single-day trading volume of CFDs surpassed $10 billion; 52% of users simultaneously held stocks and cryptocurrencies; and 35% held precious metals like gold, making cross-asset trading a mainstream habit.
Gracy Chen pointed out that as a Universal Exchange (UEX), Bitget's core goal is not to build an "asset supermarket," but to reconstruct the underlying logic of user participation in the global market around four core values: asset efficiency, native crypto experience, financial equality, and reducing burdens. On the business implementation front, Bitget is accelerating its layout through a dual-track solution of tokenized stocks and direct stock connections, supporting 7×24 trading for multiple asset classes to break down the time zone and geographical barriers of traditional finance.
Furthermore, as AI tools become more deeply integrated into execution, 51% of users in the first half of the year utilized AI-driven trading tools, and the number of platform users for AI trading surpassed 1 million.
