TechFlow News, July 17: According to an official announcement, Bitget has added support for weekend trading for 22 US stock tokens (rTokens), including targets such as rMRNA (Moderna), rAMAT (Applied Materials), and rORCL (Oracle). Following this update, the number of stock tokens supporting weekend trading on the platform has increased to 61.
During US stock market closures, the platform will comprehensively generate continuous weekend trading prices based on Friday's closing prices, market maker quotes, and market expectations. This feature supports limit orders and take-profit/stop-loss settings. To prevent abnormal fluctuations, the system has set a protection limit of approximately ±20% for weekend limit orders.
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, and connect 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, corporate actions such as stock splits are synchronized and mapped, and holdings can serve as cross-margin for unified accounts and USDT-margined contracts, allowing users to flexibly manage funds while holding global stock assets.
