Bitget’s rTokens give users economic exposure to linked U.S. stocks and ETFs without registered-share ownership or voting rights, while transfers between the exchange and brokers carry different costs and time frames.

Bitget’s FAQ describes each token as a beneficial interest backed one-to-one by its corresponding stock or ETF, rather than direct ownership registered in the holder’s name. EconoTimes previously outlined those terms in its coverage of Bitget’s brokerage transfer program.

Where available, Bitget says supported rTokens can be used for spot trading, margin, borrowing, lending and earn services. The tokens generally do not carry voting rights attached to the underlying shares.

The transfer terms distinguish incoming and outgoing moves. Bitget estimates that an incoming brokerage transfer takes about 10 business days and says it charges no fee, although the sending broker may charge one. Moving rTokens back to an outside broker costs $150 per request, for each asset, according to Bitget’s FAQ.
