Nigerians Now Investing In US Stocks, ETFs, Crypto Onchain — Chen

Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchanges, said users were already pushing billions in trading volume through its new real-world asset-based investing products.

The platform recently announced that its U.S. Tokenized stock markets have crossed $10billion+ in global activity, a sign that everyday users are eager for simpler ways to invest in companies like Apple, Tesla, Google, and Amazon, using their local currency to USDT route they already understand. This has led to a new trend in Nigeria’s investment scene, people now have one app that handles both U.S. Stocks, ETFs and crypto, without needing a dollar account, a foreign broker, or any complicated setups.

According to CEO at Bitget, Gracy Chen, “Bitget also introduced smart AI tools like GetAgent, an AI-powered investing assistant that helps users understand the markets, track trends, and make more informed decisions, especially helpful for beginners trying to get into both stocks and crypto. People are paying attention, because more of the brands Nigerians actually follow, Investors are focusing on big names like: Google (GOOGL), Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), Tesla (TSLA), Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta (META).These are the same companies that are trending onTikTok finance, Twitter Spaces, and WhatsApp investing groups.

“You can invest in the U.S. stocks with USDT, no dollar account needed, instead of dealing with bank transfers and fees, users simply fund USDT (the same way they normally buy crypto on P2P) and get exposure to top U.S. companies instantly. Bitget puts Stocks, Crypto (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, etc), Futures, Savings (Like traditional savings from banksEarn) and GetAgent for AI-guided investing insights…all under one balance and one app, and it works 24/7. instead of juggling between a crypto wallet, a stock brokerage, and a P2P platform, you just use one app.

“Today you can invest in U.S. Stock Exposure (Simple & Easy-to-Understand). These tokenized stock-based products are enabled by tokens issued by the Ondo Global Markets platform. They are designed to give holders the same economic exposure as they would receive if they owned the underlying asset and invested dividends back into the stock. For everyday Nigerians, it works like this: You are holding Apple stocks in your wallet, and both profit and loss are all settled in USDT. Bitget now lists 30+ popular U.S. companies stock on our futures market, popularly known as tokenized stock futures and 100+ spots tokens on-chain, and new ones are added almost weekly.

“Bitget is running a promo with fees around 0.0065%, and investors can choose whether to keep things simple or use leverage. It’s made easy for Nigerians because One app, one balance, investors track everything, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Apple, Tesla, in the same place. And with GetAgent, beginners can get personalized market insights, explanations, and guidance within the same app. Secondly, Naira flows make sense instead of trying to send money abroad: Buy USDT on P2P, Bitget account is now funded, Invest in U.S. companies, this matches how Nigerians already manage crypto.

“Also no restricted market hours, U.S. markets open at 3:30pm Nigerian time, but Bitget offers access even outside regular U.S. trading hours, making it friendly for people who work during the day. What these stock-based markets are: Think of them as simple digital contracts that follow the price of popular U.S. companies. They move just like real stock, but everything settles in USDT. They aren’t traditional share certificates, no dividends, no voting rights. They’re meant for easy price exposure, the kind many Nigerians already use in crypto. Why this matters to Nigerians right now as devaluation and dollar scarcity continue, more people want U.S. stocks exposure, protection from naira volatility, a simple platform they already understand, tools that help them learn and invest smarter, Bitget delivers all this and GetAgent gives everyday users the kind of market insight that used to be reserved for professionals.

“If you already use USDT for savings or trading, Bitget now gives you the missing piece: easy access to Apple, Tesla, Google, Amazon, plus an AI assistant (GetAgent) that helps you make informed investing decisions. For many Nigerians, it’s becoming the simplest and smartest way to diversify, invest globally, and stay ahead of inflation without long bank processes,” she explained.
