Bitget Releases UEX Blueprint for Crypto, Stocks, and Commodities

• Bitget has released a new UEX whitepaper outlining a model that brings crypto, stocks, and commodities under one account.
• The Universal Exchange aims to simplify trading with one account, AI execution, and shared risk controls.
• Bitget says true innovation now depends on deep integration, not standalone Web3 or AI tools.

Bitget has released a new research whitepaper detailing its vision for the evolution of digital asset exchanges beyond crypto-only platforms. 

The paper is titled Bitget Universal Exchange (UEX): Blueprint for Financial Technologies in Crypto, Stocks, Commodities, and Emerging Markets. It outlines a plan for unified, multi-asset trading systems.

Written by Bitget Research Chief Analyst Ryan Lee and co-authored by Bitget CEO Gracy Chen, the paper introduces the idea of a “Universal Exchange.” The concept aims to fix common issues such as fragmented platforms, limited asset access, and inconsistent security across financial markets.

What Is a Universal Exchange?

According to the whitepaper, a Universal Exchange is a platform, where traders can gain access to crypto, decentralized finance, and traditional markets from a single account. Instead of using separate platforms, users can access different asset classes through one system with shared execution, risk management, and security.

To make trading simpler and efficient across different markets, Bitget’s UEX model uses AI-powered trade execution, on-chain asset access, and a unified security structure.

Why Integration Matters

As exchanges roll out features like Web3 wallets, AI tools, and tokenized assets, Bitget argues that adding more products is no longer enough. The next stage of competition, it says, will focus on how well these features work together.

Under its UEX approach, Bitget already offers on-chain assets, tokenized stock exposure, and AI-assisted trading through its GetAgent tool. These are supported by a unified risk system, proof-of-reserves verification, and a $700 million user protection fund.

“Every exchange talks about innovation, but real progress comes when systems start making sense to and for users,” said Bitget CEO Gracy Chen. 

How Exchanges Compare

The whitepaper also reviews how major exchanges are progressing toward becoming universal platforms. It measures them across seven areas, including unified accounts, AI execution, on-chain integration, and risk controls.

While many platforms have made progress, the research notes that true universality requires deep architectural design, which is difficult to add later. This gives early adopters a potential long-term advantage.

Ryan Lee emphasized that the goal is to shift industry focus away from surface-level innovation. “Adding another wallet or AI tool is no longer enough,” he said. 

Blueprint for the Future of Finance

The whitepaper presents UEX as a possible foundation for the future of finance. As tokenized assets and AI-driven trading grow, universal exchanges could become the core infrastructure linking digital and traditional markets.The Bitget UEX whitepaper is now available and is aimed at traders, institutions, developers, and policymakers interested in the next phase of global market integration.
