Crypto Meets TradFi as Bitget Launches Gold, FX, and Commodities

Most investors don’t want more apps. They want fewer dashboards, fewer logins, and fewer hoops just to move their money. That’s the gap Bitget is going after.

Bitget, now positioning itself as the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has launched a private beta of Bitget TradFi, a new feature that lets crypto users trade forex, gold, commodities, indices, and stock CFDs using USDT as margin. No new accounts. No bank wires. No currency juggling.

Selected users are already testing the product with early-access limits.

Why does this matter? Because the market Bitget is stepping into is enormous.

Global FX trading alone now clocks about $9.6 trillion per day, according to the Bank for International Settlements are up nearly 30% since 2022. Add in OTC interest-rate and FX derivatives, and you’re looking at trillions more in daily activity stacked on top of $700 trillion in notional outstanding.

Retail investors increasingly access these markets through CFDs. That space is already worth an estimated $5.6 billion in annual revenue and is expected to nearly double by 2035.

Bitget wants that flow on crypto rails.

With TradFi, existing Bitget users can trade major FX pairs, gold, and other mainstream CFD products directly from the same platform they already use for spot, futures, copy trading, and tokenized stocks.

Everything is margined and settled in USDT.

That’s the key unlock.

Users don’t need separate brokers, local bank transfers, or FX conversions. Capital moves freely between crypto, stocks, and macro markets inside one interface. The platform offers institutional-grade liquidity, tight spreads, and leverage of up to 500x, all within a framework regulated by the Financial Services Commission of Mauritius.

Fees are designed to stay competitive too, starting as low as $0.09 per lot, with VIP traders getting some of the most aggressive pricing in the industry.

Bitget CEO Gracy Chen framed it as a shift that’s already underway.

Wealth management, she said, is no longer siloed. Assets that once lived in completely separate ecosystems: crypto, stocks, gold, forex, commodities are now converging. Bitget TradFi puts them under one roof, turning what used to be fragmented finance into a single, unified system.

This launch isn’t coming out of nowhere.

Earlier this year, Bitget’s tokenized U.S. stock futures crossed $10 billion in cumulative trading volume, showing strong demand for always-on, USDT-settled access to traditional markets. TradFi expands that model beyond equities and into the broader FX and CFD universe.

The bigger picture is clear.

Bitget isn’t just adding new products. It’s betting on a future where the line between traditional finance and crypto fades away—and where one platform becomes the gateway to global markets.

That’s the core of its UEX strategy: make investing borderless, capital-efficient, and accessible, no matter where users are or what asset class they’re trading.
