Reality, a compliant real-world asset issuance platform backed by Bitget, said it has expanded its work with The Network Firm to introduce daily third-party proof-of-reserves verification reports for more than 500 tokenized stocks and exchange-traded products. The platform had previously provided daily PoR data, but the new structure adds an independent report designed to let investors check each day whether every issued rToken remains matched 1:1 with the underlying assets held in custody. Reality said the move fits its plan to build a more transparent framework for cross-ecosystem tokenized equities. The company said the underlying stocks and ETFs remain custodied by Alpaca Securities LLC, a FINRA-registered broker-dealer protected by SIPC. Reality also said its rToken assets under management have passed $100 million, while its lineup now spans more than 500 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs across sectors including technology, AI, semiconductors, commodities, leveraged products, and broad market indices. Executives from both The Network Firm and Bitget framed the change as a response to a 24/7 market that no longer fits monthly or occasional reserve disclosures. The source article also included corporate background on Reality, Bitget, and Bitget Wallet, along with a disclaimer stating that the tokenized assets discussed have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 and that The Network Firm’s reports do not constitute an audit, review, opinion, or conclusion on whether rTokens are fully backed.

Bitget CEO Gracy Chen said recent conversations with traders and institutional clients in Europe and the U.S. point to a structural shift in crypto market behavior. In a post on X, Chen said liquidity has contracted structurally since Oct. 10 last year, with even top-tier platforms generally seeing declines of 30% to 40%. She said the effect has gone beyond weaker trading volumes, raising the cost of trust across the market. Even so, Chen said institutional interest in long-term crypto allocation has not faded. What has changed, in her view, is how those investors frame the asset class. Rather than treating crypto as a standalone speculative trade, institutions are increasingly viewing it through a more traditional finance lens, as one component in a broader global asset-allocation mix. Chen added that multi-asset strategies, links to real-world assets, and hedging portfolios are becoming more common. She also said institutions and VIP clients are no longer focused only on alpha generation. Asset safety, risk controls, and capital efficiency now rank much higher, alongside demand for transparent third-party custody and account structures that allow capital to move more flexibly.

Bitget has introduced a Private Copy Trading feature for its CFD platform, adding an invitation-only layer to its copy trading product for professional traders. The company said the new tool is designed to give traders tighter control over how their strategies are distributed while letting them build closed trading communities around their own audiences. According to Bitget, traders can create multiple invitation links for different communities or marketing channels, track conversion results by source, manage follower quotas separately, and remove followers when needed. Public copy trading and private copy trading can run at the same time, allowing traders to keep a broader public presence while reserving selected strategies for approved users. Bitget CEO Gracy Chen said the company views the product as part of the continued evolution of crypto copy trading. She said transparent copy trading helps collective growth and that the new private layer gives professional traders more flexibility when sharing strategies. Bitget also framed the rollout as part of a broader shift in which copy trading platforms are expanding from strategy discovery tools into infrastructure for audience management, user acquisition, and long-term community development.

Bitget has published its 44th Proof of Reserves report, disclosing updated holdings across four major assets and stating that its total reserve ratio stands at 123%. The latest snapshot shows users holding 26,856 BTC, 112,242 ETH, 1,678,163,870 USDT, and 113,827,508 USDC on the platform. Compared with June, BTC holdings rose 15%, while ETH, USDT, and USDC changed by 50%, 13%, and 28%, respectively. Bitget said the average reserve ratio across those four assets reached 122%, above the 1:1 standard, and that users can verify whether their balances are included in reserves through its Merkle tree-based system. CEO Gracy Chen said the exchange has published proof-of-reserves reports every month for more than three years and argued that transparency standards need to evolve as crypto and traditional finance become more closely connected. The company also positioned proof of reserves as part of a broader security framework that includes its Protection Fund and ongoing risk monitoring.

Bitget said it is supporting the expansion of UNICEF’s Game Changers Coalition into Bangladesh, Indonesia and Bolivia, taking the initiative’s footprint to 11 countries. The program uses game development to help young people build digital, AI and financial skills, with a stated focus on adolescents in emerging economies and on girls in particular. Bitget joined the coalition in 2025 under a three-year partnership with UNICEF and said it is contributing educational materials, blockchain-focused learning content and mentors from the Web3 ecosystem to support curriculum development. The article said the coalition reached more than 642,000 adolescents, parents and teachers over the past year, with women accounting for 52% of participants. Students have created more than 20,000 games through the program. Bitget also pointed to a National Game Jam in Cambodia in December 2025, where more than 1,000 young creators took part in a 48-hour challenge, and to a previous global UNICEF Game Jam in which Cambodian teams won four awards across seven categories. UNICEF Luxembourg and Bitget executives said the expansion is intended to widen access to 21st century STEAM, financial and digital skills in new markets.

Bitget upgrades its tokenized stock product to Stocks 2.0, connecting directly to Nasdaq and NYSE for real liquidity, 1:1 asset mapping, zero slippage with USDT, and integration with unified accounts and copy trading. CEO says over 10% of global financial assets could be tokenized by 2030.
