Bitget Launches World’s First RWA Index Perpetuals With 10x Leverage

Key Takeaways:

Bitget unveils the first-ever Real-World Asset (RWA) Index Perpetual Contracts, combining traditional stock exposure with crypto trading.
Initial listings include tokenized Tesla, Nvidia, and Circle assets, all tradable with up to 10x leverage in isolated margin mode.
Trades run 5 days a week with dynamic pricing from multiple issuers, offering fairer price discovery and risk-managed liquidation processes.

This new development is the industry first RWA Index Perpetual Contracts offered byBitget, a leading global crypto exchange. This will make the first network to connect tokenized equities with perpetual trading, beginning with some of the leading tech and financial companies: Tesla (TSLA/USDT RWA), Nvidia (NVDA/USDT RWA) and Circle (CRCL/USDT RWA).

Bitget’s RWA Index Perpetuals: A First in the Industry

The new product offered by Bitget provides a derivatives model that is built using tokenized real-life shares, where traders can predict the performance within the major equities without going out of the crypto ecosystem once.

Compared to the other crypto perpetual contracts pegged to digital currencies such as BTC or ETH, these RWA Index Perpetuals are secured by tokens of existing real-world firms. First, these are:

Tesla (TSLA/USDT RWA)
Nvidia (NVDA/USDT RWA)
Circle (CRCL/USDT RWA)

Each contract is based on a composite index made up of tokenized assets issued by multiple third-party platforms. At launch, the data is sourced from xStocks, a trusted provider of tokenized equities. This structure eliminates the possibility that the prices will rely on the individual issuer: it increases fairness and accuracy.

How RWA Perpetual Contracts Work

Familiar Trading Mechanics for Crypto Users

Bitget has provided that the trading experience also reflects current crypto perpetuals. The result is that users can:

Trade with up to 10x leverage
Use isolated margin only
Expect the same funding fee structure and liquidation model

By replicating crypto derivatives logic, Bitget has lowered the learning curve for users while opening access to new asset classes.

Controlled Exposure to Mitigate Risk

To ensure safety during the initial launch phase, Bitget is implementing:

Leverage cap at 10x
Isolated margin trading only
Strict open interest limits per user

These characteristics facilitate control over exposure on platform scale, and limit exposure-related liquidation risks, particularly as the underlying assets occur across market.

Trading Hours & Settlement Rules

RWA Index Perpetuals have a 5×24 schedule, rather than 24×7, as do traditional crypto markets, and are stopped on weekends and during stock market holidays.

During these closures:

Market prices freeze, no liquidations occur
Users can still cancel orders or add margin
Funding fees are paused
Hourly settlement resumes once markets reopen

This system will imitate the classical finance activities in accordance with the plasticity of crypto landscapes.

Dynamic Pricing: Multi-Issuer Index Model

RWA Index is not dependent on any single pricing source. Instead, it draws from multiple token issuers, and Bitget may update the composition dynamically based on:

Liquidity conditions
Market activity
Trading volume

This price model is also important because it enables index integrity in the rapidly moving crypto market. It provides users with a realistic image of the gate real-world value of tokenized assets.

Expanding Exposure to Traditional Equities

Bridging TradFi and DeFi Like Never Before

The CEO of Bitget Gracy Chen has also highlighted this launch is part of a larger overall strategy to integrate traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). The contracts give crypto-native traders access to familiar stocks and stock-focused investors the ability to ease their way into crypto.

Through this launch, Bitget has placed itself once again in the ranks of tokenized finance innovation as the company introduces a unique trading experience, where:

Tech stocks like Tesla and Nvidia
Fintech players like Circle

…are accessible alongside Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other crypto assets, all within the same interface.
