Bitget CEO Gracy Chen Shares Major Insights

Investor behaviour is changing quickly, with more users looking to diversify their holdings beyond cryptocurrencies, Chen said.

As revealed by the data shared by Bitget, 52% of its users are currently investing in both cryptocurrencies and stocks. Another 35% invest in gold or other precious metals, and 51% use AI trading tools to assist them in trading decisions. These are numbers that show the growing interest in portals that offer a single point of entry to multiple financial markets.

Bitget’s mission is to increase capital efficiency and provide access to global assets via crypto infrastructure. Moreover, it aims to offer other investments options like tokenized assets and pre-IPO offerings; and ease trading with AI-powered automation.

The Exchange Goes beyond Digital Assets

“Our focus has pivoted from being a crypto exchange to a holistic universal provider,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. “Our platform removes barriers that divided financial markets for decades. Users can now access crypto, stocks, CFDs, gold and do more with their capital 24/7.”

Bitget also restated their perspective on the long-term prospects of tokenization. The current financial markets are experiencing a fundamental shift, and the “10% tokenization vision” is her blueprint for the future, Chen said. The company pointed to such products as Stock+ and Reality as use cases of blockchain technology to enhance market access and investment efficiency.

The exchange is also working on artificial intelligence, a major focus for the exchange. According to Chen, AI is no longer just research; it’s now a way to perform trades. In that model, the user would establish objectives for investment, risk tolerance, and then let automated systems manage trading.

Bitget claimed that its AI trading services have accumulated over 1 million users. It has also reached one million users on its copy trading platform since introducing the GetClaw and the GetAgent Playbook.
