Bitrue announced that USDT-settled futures for Texas Instruments (TXNUSDT) and the leveraged Nvidia ETF (NVDLUSDT) are now live on its platform, with the exchange offering traders up to 20x leverage on the new pairs. The listing lets users take long or short positions on both instruments directly with USDT rather than holding the underlying equities.
The two new pairs extend Bitrue's tokenized real-world-asset lineup beyond crypto-native markets and into traditional equities and equity-linked products, continuing a build-out the exchange has pursued through much of 2026.
Part of a Broader Tokenized-Stock Push
Bitrue's TradFi futures arena already covers roughly 40 tokenized real-world assets, including blue-chip names such as Nvidia, Tesla and Amazon, along with index products like the Nasdaq-100 and tokenized gold and silver, some of which carry leverage as high as 100x. The exchange has separately rolled out spot-tradable tokenized stocks — including Apple, Circle, MicroStrategy and Nvidia — and a set of 3x leveraged tokens covering names like Microsoft, AMD, Broadcom and Palantir.
Why Exchanges Are Racing Into Tokenized Equities
Bitrue is one of several crypto exchanges chasing the tokenized real-world-asset trend, betting that traders who already hold stablecoins want round-the-clock access to equity exposure without leaving a crypto-native platform. Bitrue's own futures page for the category frames the appeal as 24/7 trading access to assets that are normally restricted to traditional exchange hours — a pitch that has pushed competing platforms to build out similar tokenized-stock offerings over the past year.

Leverage Cuts Both Ways
The 20x leverage on TXNUSDT and NVDLUSDT amplifies both potential gains and losses relative to spot exposure, a risk profile more typical of crypto derivatives than traditional equity trading. As tokenized-stock futures proliferate across exchanges, that leverage — often far beyond what's available through a conventional brokerage — remains the main differentiator crypto platforms are using to compete for the same pool of traders.
