Bitget, the Universal Exchange (UEX), has announced that its United States stock-linked perpetual futures trading has surpassed $5 billion in cumulative volume.
Chief Executive Officer, Gracy Chen, attributed the growth to increasing demand for a unified trading experience, allowing users to trade stocks and crypto in one app, with one balance, and on a 24/7 basis. She said recent trading activity has focused on MicroStrategy (MSTR), Tesla (TSLA), and Apple (AAPL), with Bitget offering 30+ USDT-margined stock perpetuals, up to 25× leverage, and promotional fees as low as 0.0065 per cent. Users can fund with USDT, trade BTC/ETH/SOL alongside AAPL/TSLA/NVDA/MSTR, and cash in/out via P2P or direct rails, all within the app.
“Today you can trade stock-linked perpetual futures: coverage launched with 25 leading company tickers and has expanded, with index contracts added for one-tap exposure. Contracts are margined/settled in USDT. Standard maker, taker reduced during the promo to 0.0065 per cent; leverage up to 25× on supported pairs. Check the in-app spec per market before you trade.

“This is simpler because the UEX model puts Crypto, stocks, futures, spot, and earn under one account—no app-hopping, no separate funding.
African funding flows fit naturally: many traders already move between local fiat USDT via P2P; stock-linked futures let them express a view on AAPL/TSLA/NVDA/MSTR in the same place they manage their crypto.
“It’s Round-the-clock access: stock-linked contracts run on a crypto venue schedule, so users aren’t tied to US market hours. Perpetual stock futures that mirror price moves of selected US equities. They’re derivatives, not shares—so no dividends or voting rights. Profits/losses are in USDT. What to check before trading include fees, max leverage, and maintenance margins can change by pair (e.g., periodic leverage updates). Use stop-loss and size small while you learn,” she said.
