- Bitget now offers perpetual contracts for tokenized Tesla, Nvidia, and Circle stocks with up to 10x leverage under a 5×24 market structure.
- RWA indices will be composed of tokenized assets from third-party issuers and adjusted based on liquidity and trading activity.
- Contracts are priced using xStocks tokenized shares, with margin flexibility allowed during market closures to manage exposure.
Bitget has announced the launch of a real-world asset (RWA) index perpetual contract, introducing exposure to tokenized stocks of Tesla, Nvidia, and Circle. The new product, unveiled on August 20, combines traditional finance with digital asset trading by offering index-based futures tied to tokenized shares already active in the market.
Each RWA index is composed of one or more tokens that track stock prices via third-party issuers. Initially, Bitget’s pricing will reference tokenized stocks available on the xStocks platform. The contracts allow for up to 10x leverage and operate on a 5×24 market schedule, which provides continuous access on weekdays but pauses during weekends and official holidays.
Trading Structure and Flexibility
Bitget’s perpetual contracts will maintain real-time exposure from Monday to Friday, mirroring common crypto market operations. During closure periods, prices will be frozen to avoid forced liquidations. However, traders will retain the ability to adjust their margins and cancel orders, while new orders cannot be submitted until the market reopens.
The RWA index will not remain static. Bitget will update or remove components based on market activity, trading volume, and liquidity. Additionally, index weighting can be rebalanced periodically to maintain fair and flexible pricing for traders.
Exchange Strategy and Vision
Bitget’s Chief Executive Gracy Chen stated that the index aligns with the platform’s direction to bridge the gap between decentralized finance and traditional financial markets. The initiative reflects Bitget’s strategy to enhance product offerings while incorporating more real-world assets into the crypto ecosystem.
Bitget’s introduction of token-based perpetual futures tied to major U.S. equities marks a significant shift in how digital exchanges are expanding into traditional markets. With a focus on dynamic pricing and flexible trading schedules, the RWA index is positioned to attract users seeking diversified exposure through crypto-native platforms.
