Bitget Integrates Tokenized Equities with Unified Margin System

Bitget has rolled out its Cross-Asset Unified Account (UTA), a trading framework that combines cryptocurrencies and tokenized US stocks within a single margin system.

The platform says UTA is the first to allow eligible tokenized equities to function alongside digital assets as collateral, extending unified margin beyond crypto markets.

Under this new account structure, users can manage more than 370 eligible assets, including 100 tokenized US equities, from a single margin pool.

This represents the next evolution of exchange account architecture, according to Bitget.

'Bringing stocks onchain is the first step but the real breakthrough comes when those assets can work with the same flexibility as crypto,' said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. 'Capital efficiency is one of the principles behind UEX, and the Cross-Asset UTA puts that idea into practice.'

Eligible rTokens can perform several functions simultaneously under the new system, including maintaining exposure to the underlying US stock while also using it as collateral for futures and margin trading or pledging it to borrow stablecoins.
