Bitget has announced that cumulative spot trading volume for tokenised stocks on its platform has exceeded $1 billion, with approximately 95% of this volume generated in December alone.
The growth reflects demand for continuous, borderless exposure to traditional financial markets through blockchain-based infrastructure. Trading activity has expanded beyond technology equities, with precious metals-linked products emerging as a contributor during December.
As silver and gold reached successive record highs in traditional markets, activity in corresponding tokenised exchange-traded products surged on Bitget. Over the past two weeks, trading volume for SLVon, the tokenised version of the iShares Silver Trust ETF, increased by 3,729% compared with the prior period, whilst IAUon, linked to the iShares Gold Trust ETF, recorded a 4,904% period-over-period increase.

Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget, said:
"Reaching $1 billion in cumulative tokenised stock trading volume reflects a structural shift in how global users want to access markets. What we are seeing is not just demand for equities on-chain, but a broader appetite for assets like gold and commodities to trade with the same speed, transparency, and global reach as crypto. As tokenised stocks, ETFs, and traditional assets converge on a single platform, capital is increasingly moving toward markets that operate continuously and without geographic barriers. This milestone signals that on-chain access to real-world assets is becoming a core part of modern market participation."
Momentum has been supported by Bitget's app upgrade, rolled out in December, which introduced a streamlined and data-rich experience for equity traders. The upgraded stock interface provides sector-based market views, real-time price movements, trending equity themes, and an integrated earnings calendar.
The platform currently supports more than 100 on-chain stock tokens, allowing users to trade leading global equities such as Apple, Tesla, Nvidia, and Alphabet using USDT, without the account opening processes typically associated with traditional brokerages.
On Bitget, tokenised stocks trade on a continuous basis, enabling global users to respond to macroeconomic developments, earnings releases, and commodity price movements without geographic or time-zone constraints.
Bitget is a cryptocurrency exchange operating in the digital assets market.
