Bitget opens TradFi trading to users after record-breaking beta demand

Bitget, world’s  Universal Exchange (UEX), has  opened its TradFi trading suite to all users, following a private beta that drew overwhelming interest and delivered standout trading activity across gold, forex, and global macro assets.

The public launch, according to a statement, marks a key milestone in Bitget’s evolution into a Universal Exchange (UEX). After opening beta access in December, more than 80,000 users joined the waitlist to explore trading beyond crypto, validating strong demand for a single platform that connects digital assets with traditional markets.

Activity during the test phase exceeded expectations, highlighted by XAU/USD recording over $100 million in single-day trading volume, one of the strongest performances seen during the beta period.

With the beta insights now baked into the product, Bitget TradFi is entering full public availability with a broader lineup and refined execution. Users can trade 79 instruments spanning metals, forex, indices, and commodities, all settled in USDT and accessed directly from their existing Bitget accounts. The experience is designed to feel familiar to crypto-native traders while opening the door to macro-driven strategies without the need to switch platforms.

According to Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget,  “this launch also reinforces Bitget’s UEX (Universal Exchange) vision, where trading is no longer segmented by asset class. By bringing gold, forex, and commodities into the same ecosystem as crypto, Bitget is positioning itself as a platform built for how modern traders actually think about risk, diversification, and opportunity. Deep liquidity, tight spreads, and flexible leverage options were refined during the beta based on real user feedback, ensuring the product is ready to scale. Traders want the flexibility to choose between assets in a unified ecosystem. They want the freedom to move between crypto and traditional markets as conditions change.”

“TradFi going public is about giving them that accessibility in one place, without friction.” With TradFi now fully live, Bitget continues to expand what a crypto exchange can be. The move signals a broader shift in how exchanges are evolving, not just as venues for speculation, but as comprehensive gateways to global markets under a single, unified trading experience,” she added
