Gracy Chen, Managing Director at Bitget, appeared on two programs in mid-2026 to discuss the exchange's expansion into tokenized traditional assets. On the July 21 episode of "The Starting Block," Chen commented on current market conditions, stating that both retail and institutional investors are "both sort of um doing both" in terms of buying and selling. She noted that retail investors appear "more panic" while institutions are asking about the growth of real-world assets (RWA) and considering entering Bitget's stock perpetual market. In a June 30 appearance on "Tokenization Tower," Chen described Bitget's evolution into a "universal exchange" offering tokenized stocks, ETFs, bonds, forex, and pre-IPO positions. She said she pitched a "10% vision" to BlackRock CEO Rob Goldstein, referring to the idea that 10% of the hundreds of trillions of dollars in off-chain assets will come on chain in the next 5 to 10 years. Chen compared the current tokenization wave to the "20th century sort of JP Morgan starting up era" and stated that Bitget is positioning itself to serve users and "run this marathon together in the long run."

“My 10% vision is in 2030 all these categories should be somewhere around 10% like all the assets that that can be tokenized.

Our goal is to launch it end of this year, if not at least the first half...”
“It's not really accurate to call ourselves just CEX because now we have all those DEX assets and we're not just serving crypto users — we're also serving TradFi users who may want to use stablecoins to buy TradFi assets. That's why we pivoted to UEX (Universal Exchange); we want to enable our users to trade universally...”
“BGB became a platform token for a long time, but if we have a token on ourselves it could be a conflict of interest if we are also looking for an IPO. That's part of the reason we transferred ownership of BGB to the Morph Foundation, while continuing to support BGB as an ecosystem token on the exchange.”
“I would consider Bitcoin more as a commodity or a proxy to M7 US stocks. It's probably the best pure capture of liquidity.”
