Bitget launches BGUSD to bridge traditional finance and crypto
Bitget, a globally leading cryptocurrency exchange with major operations in the UAE, announced the launch of BGUSD, a yield-bearing stable asset certificate designed to enhance capital efficiency and provide passive income opportunities for users worldwide. The new digital asset product is fully integrated into the platform's trading and wealth management infrastructure, offering a multifaceted utility layer backed by real-world assets, the company said. BGUSD is redeemable for USDC at a 1:1 ratio and can be subscribed using USDC or USDT. Holding BGUSD provides users with an annualized yield starting at 4 percent, credited daily to their spot accounts based on their minimum daily balance, the company said. For the first 30 days following launch, a promotional annual percentage yield (APY) of 5 percent will apply, it added. The new digital asset product derives its yield from a diversified basket of tier 1 tokenized real-world assets, including high-grade money market funds and tokenized US Treasury products. This disciplined yield structure is supported by a diversified asset allocation, institutional-grade infrastructure, and partnerships with multiple leading tokenization service providers, Bitget said. 'At Bitget, our mission has always been to prioritise our users' needs — whether they come from the crypto-native community, institutional circles, or traditional finance,' said Gracy Chen, CEO at Bitget. 'With BGUSD, we are delivering a solution that bridges the best of both worlds – the transparency and innovation of crypto with the stability and yield opportunities traditionally found in real-world assets,' she said. Chen said this launch is another step in empowering the exchange's global users to achieve smarter, more resilient portfolio growth. The company said the structuring positions BGUSD as a secure, yield-generating alternative within the platform, minimizing exposure to crypto market volatility, while maintaining full liquidity through redemption options. Users can opt for instant redemptions, fulfilled from Bitget's reserve pool, or standard redemptions with settlement within three business days, it said.

Bitget lists Ripple USD
Bitget, the leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, has announced the listing of Ripple USD (RLUSD) on its spot trading platform. 0 RLUSD, an enterprise-grade USD-backed stablecoin issued by Ripple, enters the Bitget ecosystem at a time when demand for secure and compliant digital assets continues to rise, particularly among institutional participants and developers focused on enterprise-grade blockchain use cases. As a stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar, RLUSD is natively issued on both the XRP Ledger (XRPL) and Ethereum, leveraging the unique strengths of each blockchain. The asset is backed by a segregated reserve held in USD fiat and cash equivalents.

'RLUSD stands out as one of the few stablecoins issued by a NYDFS-chartered limited purpose trust company, placing it in a uniquely clear regulatory framework. This is particularly important for institutions seeking transparency and compliance in today's evolving digital asset landscape. Listing RLUSD also aligns with our 2025 strategy to expand institutional offerings and build a more robust, trusted ecosystem.' The RLUSD listing on Bitget expanded access and offered a trusted trading venue for one of the industry's most closely monitored digital assets. Bitget continues to scale its listings to support the increasing demand of the crypto market.

With an extensive selection of over 900 crypto pairs and a commitment to broadening its offerings, Bitget connects users to various ecosystems, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Base, and TON. The addition of RLUSD signals a strategic move to embrace regulated stablecoins's becoming a gateway to trade innovative crypto projects.
