Bitget introduces US stock options on its Stock+ platform

Crypto exchange Bitget, described as the world’s largest Universal Exchange, has launched US stock options, making it the only major crypto platform to offer options on US‑listed companies alongside crypto, CFDs and tokenised stocks. The initial rollout provides long‑call and long‑put strategies for eligible users, with the company planning multi‑leg products later. The move expands Bitget’s Stock+ offering, which already includes tokenised stocks, pre‑IPO access, commodities and forex.

Bitget says the US options market is booming, citing more than 15.2 billion contracts processed in 2025, about 60 million contracts per trading day. To promote the launch, users who complete a first US stock options trade may receive $15 worth of NVIDIA stock, subject to regional availability. CEO Gracy Chen highlighted the initiative as part of Bitget’s goal to converge crypto and traditional finance assets in a single trading environment.
