In a new post, Bitget CEO Gracy Chen addressed growing speculation that the exchange is shifting focus toward traditional stocks, calling the idea a misunderstanding of crypto’s evolution.
“We’re not pivoting to stocks,” Chen clarified. “Crypto’s core was never just Bitcoin and Ethereum — it was tokenized assets traded globally, 24/7, without borders.”
She noted that while early crypto centered on Bitcoin, Ethereum, and altcoins, today’s tokenized assets now include Nvidia, SpaceX, and QQQ — all traded with stablecoins and settled on-chain.“
The assets evolved. The market evolved,” Chen wrote. “Crypto isn’t competing with stocks. Crypto is becoming the infrastructure that stocks — and everything else — will eventually run on.”
Chen emphasized that most investors have yet to make this mental shift, positioning tokenized real-world assets as the next major chapter for the crypto industry rather than a departure from it.
