Bitget Introduces rTokens That Earn Dividends While Used as Crypto Margin
Bitget has introduced a unique feature that allows eligible rTokens to earn dividends while being used as crypto margin. This means users can keep their stock-linked exposure and dividend potential without selling their rTokens into USDT.
The platform currently offers over 600 tradable rTokens, with 370+ of them supported in the Cross-Asset Unified Trading Account (UTA). This includes 125+ U.S. stock rTokens, such as rAAPL, rNVDA, and rTSLA.
User can now use their rTokens as margin for supported trading positions without selling them first. The rToken's value is adjusted according to the applicable collateral ratio, which currently ranges from 90% to 95%. This allows users to keep their exposure to the underlying stock while still using it as margin.
Cash dividends are automatically distributed in USDT to eligible rToken holders who meet the applicable record-date and holding requirements. The dividend mechanism is already operating at scale, with Bitget having completed dividend distributions for 63 rTokens on July 24, 2026.
