- The launch expands Bitget Walletās tokenized real-world asset offering to over 300 products and supports RFQ, AMM liquidity, zero trading fees and gasless execution.
- xStocks is operated by Payward after Krakenās Backed Finance acquisition, while tokenized equities approach $1.5 billion in tracked value across leading issuers and blockchains globally today.
Bitget Wallet integrated xStocks infrastructure, giving its 90 million users access to more than 130 tokenized stocks and ETFs through a self-custodial wallet. The move expands the platformās tokenized real-world asset lineup to more than 300 products spanning equities, commodities, precious metals and index-linked assets. For a wallet built around crypto storage, swaps and trading, the integration pushes traditional market exposure directly into self-custody, raising a practical question: can users treat tokenized equities as part of the same interface where they already manage digital assets without surrendering control of keys or funds? That tension makes the rollout strategically important for wallets trying to become financial gateways, not passive storage tools.
Bitget wallet is now a 24/7 onchain brokerage.

Tokenized Stocks Move Into Wallet Distribution
The launch combines request-for-quote and automated-market-maker liquidity models, allowing users to trade tokenized assets with zero trading fees and gasless execution. That design matters because user experience can decide whether tokenized securities feel investable or merely experimental. The products have processed more than $30 billion in transaction volume since launching in 2025, but they are unavailable in the United States, United Kingdom and other restricted jurisdictions. The access story is global but not universal, shaped by compliance limits that still define where tokenized equity markets can scale.
xStocks is now operated by Payward, Krakenās parent company, after Kraken acquired Backed Finance in late 2025. The integration places Bitget Wallet inside a broader competitive race as crypto platforms push into stock-linked products. Coinbase launched stock perpetual futures for international users in March, Kraken expanded xStocks with bundled crypto and equity products plus tokenized equity perpetual futures for non-US users, and Binance has explored returning to tokenized equities after leaving the category in 2021 amid European regulatory scrutiny. Traditional equities are becoming a crypto-platform battleground, not just an asset-manager experiment.
The broader market is already gaining measurable depth. Data from RWA.xyz puts tokenized equities near $1.5 billion, with products linked to Circle, Nvidia, Tesla, Alphabet and Strategy among the largest assets. Ondo leads tokenized stock platforms with roughly $883 million in represented asset value, followed by xStocks at about $391.5 million. Several xStocks products linked to Strategy, Tesla, Nvidia and the S&P 500 rank among the largest tracked assets. The next test is whether distribution converts into durable liquidity, because 90 million wallet users mean potential reach, not guaranteed adoption.
