Bitget Launches Tokenized Stocks for Nigerian Traders

Bitget has announced an expansion of its spot market by introducing tokenized stocks, which will allow traders to access a new batch of products including major U.S. equity index ETFs and precious metals. This initiative is part of Bitget's strategy to strengthen its multi-asset model, enabling users to trade cryptocurrencies alongside traditional market assets.

The rollout is particularly focused on Nigerian traders, providing them with the opportunity to engage in trading around the clock within a USDT-based account. Users will no longer be restricted by time constraints in their trading activities.

Graci Chen, CEO of Bitget, emphasized that the platform aims to offer a comprehensive trading experience by integrating tokenized equities with cryptocurrencies. Ian de Bode, President of Ondo Finance, highlighted that the new offerings will include recognized names in the global market such as Tesla, Nvidia, Apple, Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and AMD, along with access to commodities like gold and silver.
