Bitget expands stock dual investment to 20+ U.S. assets

Bitget has expanded its Stock Dual Investment lineup from six to more than 20 U.S. stock and ETF-linked tokens, with settlement now set for 11:30 p.m. UTC+8.

Bitget announced on Aug. 14 that its expanded lineup includes tokens tied to major technology stocks, crypto-linked companies, semiconductor businesses, and exchange-traded funds.

The supported list covers rMU, rSNDK, rNVDA, rCRCL, rSPCX, rTSLA, rMRVL, rAMZN, rGOOGL, rMSTR, rINTC, rMETA, rAMD, rSOXL, rTSM, rAAPL, rCOIN, rAAOI, rSOXS, rNBIS, and rWDC. Bitget said it plans to add more underlying assets but did not provide a schedule.

Among the new targets are tokens tracking Nvidia, Tesla, Apple, Meta, Advanced Micro Devices, Intel, and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company. Crypto-related choices include tokens linked to Coinbase, Circle, and Strategy, while rSOXL and rSOXS track leveraged semiconductor ETFs.

Bitget Stock Dual Investment adds more targets

Stock Dual Investment first went live on July 25 with six supported products: rSPCXUSDT, rNVDAUSDT, rGOOGLUSDT, rAAPLUSDT, rCOINUSDT, and rAMZNUSDT. The Aug. 14 update has raised the selection to at least 21 underlying assets in less than a month.

Under the product’s Buy Low option, a user subscribes with USDT and chooses a target price and settlement date. If the linked token’s settlement price is at or below the target at expiry, Bitget buys the token for the user at the agreed price and pays the applicable interest.

When the settlement price remains above the target, the user receives the USDT principal and interest without a token conversion, according to Bitget’s product terms. The displayed annual percentage rate and available subscription amount can change and are shown on the product page when an order is placed.

For Sell High products, users commit the relevant stock token instead of USDT. If its settlement price reaches or exceeds the target at expiry, Bitget converts the position at that target price and adds the applicable interest. When the target is not reached, the user keeps the token and receives interest in the settlement asset specified by the product.

Bitget classifies Dual Investment as a non-principal-guaranteed product. A user may therefore receive a different asset at maturity, and the agreed conversion price can become less favorable than the open-market price before settlement. Subscription funds are also locked until the selected maturity date.

The new settlement time follows the U.S. market open

As part of the update, Bitget moved the settlement time for stock-linked products to 11:30 p.m. UTC+8, or 11 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The new schedule places settlement about 90 minutes after the regular Nasdaq and New York Stock Exchange sessions open at 9:30 a.m. ET.

Bitget said the adjustment lets the settlement process account for price changes during the opening portion of the U.S. session. Opening hours often bring company announcements, analyst actions, and the first reaction to overnight news into the cash market, although the exchange did not release data comparing outcomes under its previous and revised schedules.

Stock Dual Investment does not provide the same experience as buying a U.S.-listed share through a conventional brokerage account. The products use rTokens linked to the value of U.S. securities, and the final result depends on the chosen target price, maturity date, and conversion rules.

Bitget introduced its Reality platform in May with rTokens that it said were backed 1:1 by shares held through regulated brokerage and custody arrangements. As previously covered by crypto.news, the exchange said Reality would support stablecoin-based minting and redemption, dividend distributions, and tokens tied to U.S. stocks and ETFs.

In July, Bitget placed more than 100 rTokens and over 370 other eligible assets inside a unified margin system. Eligible tokens can support borrowing and margin obligations, although Bitget warned that falling collateral values may lead to margin calls or liquidation.

U.S. access still depends on regulatory approvals

Despite the product’s focus on American securities, Bitget has not announced that Stock Dual Investment is available to U.S. residents. Product access depends on account eligibility and regional rules, making the distinction important for American readers.

Bitget CEO Gracy Chen said in July that the company intends to establish an independent U.S. entity and obtain money-transmitter, derivatives, and broker-dealer approvals before serving customers in the country. The exchange has not disclosed a launch date, and Chen said its entry would proceed regardless of whether Congress passes the CLARITY Act.

During the same discussion, Chen said tokenized traditional assets represented between 20% and 30% of Bitget’s spot volume in the previous quarter. She also reported that 52% of users held both stocks and crypto, while the platform’s tokenized-stock products had accumulated more than $100 million.

Bitget’s planned U.S. expansion could require a product structure different from the offshore offering. According to Chen, the company wants the necessary approvals in place before launching locally, where securities, derivatives, and broker-dealer rules may determine which stock-linked services it can provide.

The exchange also operates Stock+, a separate product through which eligible users can buy and hold real U.S. stocks and ETFs. Bitget’s documentation distinguishes this broker-style service from rTokens, which provide tokenized economic exposure rather than the same ownership structure as registered shares.

Two Bitget promotions carry separate eligibility rules

Alongside the product expansion, Bitget is running an invitation-only Dual Investment bonus campaign through Aug. 21. Eligible users must register before completing the required deposit tasks and must not have traded a Dual Investment product since Jan. 1, 2026.

A net deposit of at least 1,000 USDT qualifies for a 1,000 USDT trading bonus voucher, while reaching 30,000 USDT adds another 2,000 USDT. The total available to one user is 3,000 USDT, drawn from a campaign pool of 1 million USDT and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.

Bitget calculates net deposits by subtracting total withdrawals during the campaign from USDT deposits made after registration. The exchange said withdrawals of other cryptocurrencies may also affect its final calculation.

Bonus vouchers can only be used with designated Buy Low products, and one voucher is permitted per order. Users must contribute at least the minimum subscription amount from their own funds, while the voucher carries a three-day trial period.

The bonus principal cannot be withdrawn, transferred, or exchanged for cash. Bitget said users retain the earnings generated during the trial, while only the portion funded with their own money is subject to conversion based on the settlement price.

A second promotion runs from Aug. 14 through Aug. 28 and is open to new and existing Dual Investment users without registration. Cumulative subscriptions of 50,000, 100,000, 500,000, 1 million, and 3 million USDT qualify users for limited merchandise tiers ranging from a gym bag to a camping set.

Bitget said only 80 gym bags, 40 keyboards, 30 suitcases, 20 commemorative gold coins, and five camping sets are available. Rewards will go to qualifying users in the order they reach each threshold, and recipients must answer Bitget’s request for shipping details within five working days.
