Bitget Opens Up Stock Futures for 24/7 Trading

4 min read

Victoria, Seychelles, February 02, 2026 — Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has announced the upcoming launch of 24/7 trading for stock futures, removing traditional market-hour constraints and giving traders uninterrupted access to global equities. The upgrade marks a major step in Bitget’s UEX vision, where crypto-native speed and flexibility extend fully into traditional markets.

While equities remain largely tied to defined local trading sessions, major markets still concentrate price discovery into limited weekday windows, creating periods where participants cannot respond in real time to breaking macro, earnings, or geopolitical headlines. For example, stock markets typically operate Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET, leaving weekend closures as a structural constraint for global investors.

Beginning February 7, stock futures on Bitget will trade around the clock, enabling users to respond instantly to earnings, macro events, and global news without waiting for opening bells or regional market windows. Supported contracts include major equities and indices such as TSLAUSDT, NVDAUSDT, AAPLUSDT, MSFTUSDT, AMZNUSDT, METAUSDT, COINUSDT, QQQUSDT, and dozens more spanning U.S. technology, consumer, healthcare, and financial sectors.

“The bell is a relic of an earlier era of finance,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. “Markets react to information around the clock, and traders in Asia often absorb major global headlines outside local waking hours. Extending stock futures to true 24/7 access gives traders more control over timing, risk response, and opportunity captureon their own terms.”

Bitget’s 24/7 stock futures model is framed around a simple principle: “Your Time, Your Term.” Instead of treating “market closing” as a fixed rule, the product design aims to make time a tradable advantage, allowing users to enter, adjust, or exit positions when volatility appears, regardless of day or hour. The move aligns with a broader industry direction as exchanges and market operators explore longer trading windows in response to international demand, particularly from Asia-Pacific participants who often face misaligned time zones with U.S. and European sessions.

This shift also reflects a broader change in trader behavior. As digital assets normalized continuous markets, expectations evolved. The idea that trading must pause overnight or over weekends is increasingly seen as outdated, an artifact of earlier financial infrastructure rather than a requirement of modern markets. Bitget’s UEX model applies this always-on mindset across asset classes, turning global volatility into a constant source of opportunity rather than a scheduling challenge.

The update is expected to reduce “gap risk” associated with weekend closures and overnight headline shocks by enabling faster response when news breaks. At the same time, Bitget noted that stock futures trading involves significant risk and may not be available in all jurisdictions; users should review local eligibility and product disclosures before participating.

Saudi Awwal Bank Adopts Chainlink Tools, LINK Near $23

The post Saudi Awwal Bank Adopts Chainlink Tools, LINK Near $23 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. SAB adopts Chainlink’s CCIP and CRE to expand tokenization and cross-border finance tools. SAB and Wamid target $2.32T Saudi capital markets with blockchain-based tokenization plans. LINK price falls 2.43% to $22.99 despite higher trading volume and steady liquidity ratios. Saudi Awwal Bank has added Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) and the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) to its digital strategy. CCIP links assets and data across multiple blockchains, while CRE provides banks with a controlled framework to test and deploy new financial applications. The lender, with more than $100 billion in assets, is applying the tools to tokenized assets, cross-border settlement, and automated credit platforms. The move signals that Chainlink’s infrastructure is being adopted at scale inside regulated finance.

The focus is on equities and debt products, opening the door for blockchain-based issuance and settlement. SAB has already executed the world’s first Islamic repo on distributed ledger technology, in collaboration with Oumla earlier this year. That transaction gave regulators a template for compliant on-chain contracts. The Wamid deal builds directly on that precedent, shifting from single-instrument pilots toward broader capital markets integration. Saudi Blockchain Buildout Gains Pace Saudi institutions are building multiple layers of digital infrastructure. Oumla is working with Avalanche to develop the Kingdom’s first domestically hosted Layer 1 blockchain. SAB’s Chainlink adoption adds an interoperability and execution layer on top. Together, these projects are shaping a domestic framework for tokenization, with global connectivity added only where liquidity requires it.
