Summary

Bitget said it has expanded Crypto Loans collateral options by adding 39 more stock and ETF-linked rTokens on top of its existing 26 stock tokens, widening access to borrowing against tokenized equity exposure without requiring users to sell their holdings. The newly added assets span sectors including semiconductors, financials, healthcare, consumer and energy, with examples including rAMD, rSMH, rARM, rMSTR, rCOIN and rSKHY. Users can borrow mainstream assets such as USDT and USDC by pledging those stock tokens directly. Bitget said the web version was rolled out in batches on July 13, 2026, while app support for rToken collateral is expected this week. The exchange also published collateral parameters for the new listings, with individual limits ranging from 80,000 USDT to 2,000,000 USDT and loan-to-value thresholds set at 78% initially, 85% for margin calls and 91% for liquidation.
