Leading digital asset exchange Bitget, alongside its self-custody solution Bitget Wallet, have announced the launch of live trading for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) within their respective platforms. This integration, made possible through a partnership with Ondo Finance, positions both entities among the pioneers providing access to tokenized stocks and ETFs to users outside the United States.
The collaboration with licensed entity Ondo Finance enables Bitget and Bitget Wallet to function as alternative gateways to traditional financial markets within the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. By leveraging the inherent benefits of blockchain, including robust security and broad global trading opportunities, these platforms aim to democratize access to investment products traditionally reserved for large institutional investors.
A newly introduced RWA section on Bitget Onchain and Bitget Wallet enables users to explore, analyze, and trade over 100 tokenized stocks and ETFs, representing a leading on-chain selection. Each token mirrors the total return of its corresponding security, reflecting both price changes and reinvested dividends, while being fully backed by real-world assets securely held with regulated custodians. These tokens are accessible with a minimal investment threshold of just $1.
Unlike systems relying on on-chain liquidity pools, Ondo’s tokenized assets tap directly into the liquidity of conventional equity markets. This direct connection ensures execution performance comparable to traditional exchanges through their Global Markets infrastructure. Access is available to eligible users globally, excluding certain regions, including some users within the U.S. While currently available on the Ethereum blockchain, these tokenized assets will soon expand to other supported blockchains, including Solana and BNB Chain.
“The Bitget ecosystem succeeds by merging TradFi opportunities with decentralized finance. By integrating Ondo’s tokenized assets into Bitget’s exchange and self-custodial wallet, we’re offering high-potential global investments to the crypto market, removing previous accessibility hurdles. This is the future of finance,” stated Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget.
“Real-world assets are now a fundamental part of the on-chain landscape,” said Jamie Elkaleh, Chief Marketing Officer of Bitget Wallet. “The integration of Ondo Finance is a crucial step in making Bitget Wallet a global asset passport, furthering our Crypto for Everyone vision by offering borderless access to global financial markets via blockchain and self-custody infrastructure.” With support for over 130 blockchains, the wallet plans to introduce additional tokenized financial products in future updates, further expanding its RWA offerings.
Ondo Finance operates as a regulated platform focused on the tokenization of publicly traded stocks and ETFs. Managing assets exceeding $1 billion, the company’s tokenized securities are structured with bankruptcy-remote legal safeguards and undergo daily third-party verification.
“Ondo Global Markets is revolutionizing financial access,” said Nathan Allman, Founder and CEO of Ondo Finance. “Now, global investors can access the widest selection of tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs on-chain. Just as stablecoins brought the U.S. dollar on-chain, Ondo Global Markets is doing the same for U.S. securities.”
Bitget exchange and Bitget Wallet previously joined Ondo Finance’s Global Markets Alliance to encourage the growth of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs). This recent integration demonstrates Bitget’s expansion into a diverse array of global investment opportunities through its partnership with Ondo Finance’s licensed infrastructure, providing users with a CeDeFi ecosystem for portfolio diversification.
Available assets through this new feature include tokenized shares of companies like Apple, Tesla, Microsoft, Amazon, and Nvidia, along with major ETFs. All assets are denominated in USD and available for trading around the clock, facilitating broader access to traditional markets using blockchain technology. Availability is subject to local regulations. Global users can access tokenized stocks and ETFs through the Bitget or Bitget Wallet applications, bypassing traditional brokerage accounts or banking intermediaries. Bitget Wallet will also partner with Ondo to introduce initiatives aimed at accelerating the adoption of tokenized assets. The platform aims to expand its tokenized asset selection to over 1,000 stocks and ETFs in the coming months.
