Bitget launches unified account with 370 assets and 100 U.S. stock tokens

Bitget said it has launched what it described as the industry’s first cross-asset unified account, folding more than 370 assets into a single margin pool, including 100 U.S. stock tokens known as rTokens. The company said the new setup extends its unified trading architecture beyond cryptocurrencies to include real-world asset exposure, allowing eligible stock-linked tokens to be held for yield, posted as margin for futures and margin trades, or pledged as collateral to borrow stablecoins. Bitget framed the launch as the third stage in the evolution of unified accounts, moving from single-asset margining to multi-crypto margining and now to a cross-asset model that treats rTokens and other RWA (real-world asset) products alongside crypto collateral. Starting now, the 100 supported U.S. stock tokens can be transferred into the unified account and used as margin, with leveraged buying also supported. The exchange said collateralization rates can reach 95% and decline in tiers as position size increases, while borrowing rates are floating and updated hourly based on market supply and demand. Bitget also warned that using assets as margin or for collateralized lending increases account leverage and can lead to margin calls or liquidation if collateral values fall.
