According to TechFlow, on July 15, an official announcement stated that Bitget's staking and crypto borrowing section has added support for 39 stock tokens (rToken) as collateral assets. The newly listed assets include popular US stocks and ETFs such as rAMD, rSMH, rARM, and rSKHY, covering diverse categories such as semiconductors, finance, healthcare, and energy.
Users holding relevant stock tokens can now use them as collateral to borrow mainstream assets such as USDT and USDC, releasing capital liquidity without selling their positions. The relevant features are now live on the web version, and the app version is expected to go live within this week. Specific collateral parameters and more details can be found on Bitget's official platform.
It is reported that rTokens, identified by the letter r + stock ticker (e.g., NVIDIA as rNVDA), are issued by Reality, a licensed RWA protocol under Bitget, connecting directly to global liquidity pools such as NASDAQ and NYSE through cooperation with compliant broker Alpaca. Its features include: underlying assets are 1:1 reserved and custodied by licensed custodians, stock dividends are distributed 1:1 in token form, supporting synchronized mapping of corporate actions (such as stock splits and consolidations, etc.), and positions can serve as combined margin for unified accounts and USDT-margined contracts, allowing users to flexibly manage funds while holding global stock assets.
