During the testing period, trading activity was strong. The XAU/USD (gold) pair alone recorded over $100 million in single-day trading volume, making it one of the most active assets during the test phase.
Based on feedback from early users, Bitget made several improvements before opening TradFi trading to the public. These updates focused on improving liquidity, tightening spreads, and expanding leverage options.
With the public launch, users now have access to 79 trading instruments across metals, forex, indices, and commodities. All trades are settled in USDT and can be placed directly from existing Bitget accounts, allowing users to trade traditional assets without moving funds between different platforms.
Bitget Chief Executive Officer, Gracy Chen, said the launch reflects how traders now manage risk across different markets.
“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,” she said.
Chen added that the launch supports Bitget’s Universal Exchange (UEX) strategy.
“This launch reinforces our vision where trading is no longer segmented by asset class,” she said. “By bringing gold, forex, and commodities into the same ecosystem as crypto, Bitget is positioning itself for how modern traders actually think about risk and diversification.”
Getting started with Bitget TradFi
To start trading on Bitget TradFi, first create a Bitget account and complete the identity verification (KYC), including proof of address. This step is required to access all TradFi features.
Next, ensure you are using the latest version of the Bitget mobile app on Android or iOS. Log in and navigate to Futures > TradFi, then select Create MT5 Account.
Follow the prompts to set a master password and activate your dedicated TradFi (MT5) account. Your MT5 login details will differ from those of your main Bitget account.
Once activated, go to Assets > TradFi and transfer USDT from your Spot or Funding wallet. Transfers are instant, and USDT is currently the supported margin.
After funding, return to the TradFi page, choose an asset such as gold, forex, commodities, or indices, set your order details, and place your trade.
