    Bitget Launches First US Stock Options on Crypto Exchange

    Question

    Bitget Launches First US Stock Options on Crypto Exchange

    Direct answer

    Bitget's move to offer US stock options to its global crypto user base could introduce a new source of non-US retail flow into major tech names. This increases the potential for 'gamma squeezes' driven by offshore participants who may not be subject to the same margin requirements as US-based traders.
