Not long after launching the Reality platform, @ bitget also launched the 2.0 upgrade plan for direct trading of US stocks, which made adjustments to the original process of synthesizing assets and allowed users to buy and sell real US stocks directly within the app. How to do it specifically? In the past, when we bought and sold US stocks on the exchange, we used to use a tokenization scheme by buying synthetic assets such as US stocks. This was equivalent to the issuer holding the stocks off chain and then minting tokenized beneficiary certificates on the chain at a 1:1 ratio. This time, Bitget US Stock 2.0 has added a parallel underlying logic on the basis of the original rToken. It does not issue coins on the chain, but adopts an architecture of "API routing+account underlying connection". Specifically, the front-end still uses the Bitget exchange as a super aggregator, serving as a window for users to buy and flow in, while the back-end directly links with compliant licensed securities firms in the United States (RQD Clearing and Atomic Vaults Securities) through its FSCA regulated licensed entities under the group. For example, when a user buys an NVDA stock with USDC, the user's USDC will be transferred from the Bitget main account to a separate "US stock sub account", and then the system will automatically settle it into USD at the real-time exchange rate. The order will be directly matched with the underlying market makers of Nasdaq or the New York Stock Exchange through the API, and ultimately the real stock will be held in custody under the clearing broker RQD Clearing. What are the benefits of doing this? 1) If only the rToken synthetic asset scheme is used, the liquidity of assets will be limited by the issuance agreement itself. Once encountering major fluctuations in the US stock market or sudden dividends or stock splits by listed companies, there is often high friction and lag in on chain processing. If the order goes directly to Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange, it will face the real market depth, and the situation will be completely different; 2) Only synthetic asset solutions such as rToken have a certain "trust" threshold for old money users in web2, while directly promoting US stock accounts can lower the operational threshold, transfer users and assets who are accustomed to traditional securities firms, and reduce the trust friction for old money entering the market. The above.
