BTCC Records $29.2B in Tokenized RWA Futures Trading Volume in Q2–Q3 2025

• The numbers demonstrate that there is a rising activity in on-chain representations of conventional financial products.
• The BTCC now provides users with the ability to open positions on stocks, commodities, indices, and FX pairings by using USDT as collateral.

During the second and third quarters of 2025, BTCC, which is one of the cryptocurrency exchanges that has been operating for the longest period of time, recorded a total trading volume of $29.2 billion USDT from its tokenized real-world asset (RWA) futures. Despite the fact that the whole value of the RWA market has surpassed $30 billion, the numbers demonstrate that there is a rising activity in on-chain representations of conventional financial products.

Tokenized futures contracts that referenced gold, key U.S. stock indexes, and large-cap stocks were among the most active contracts throughout the reporting period, as shown by the data that was collected internally by BTCC. RWA futures activity on the exchange was registered at $16.4 billion in the second quarter and $12.8 billion in the third quarter. A number of commodities, including gold, the S&P 500, the Dow Jones, the NASDAQ-100, Tesla, NVIDIA, Apple, Coinbase, and Circle Internet Group, were among the most frequently traded contracts.

The BTCC now provides users with the ability to open positions on stocks, commodities, indices, and FX pairings by using USDT as collateral. The platform currently features more than fifty tokenized futures products. For equity-based futures, the platform provides leverage of up to 20x, while for precious metals, it offers leverage of up to 150x.

“Cross-market participation in RWA products is expanding faster than anyone expected,” said Peter Lee, Chief Marketing Officer at BTCC. “With more institutions exploring tokenized exposure to equities, commodities, and indices, BTCC’s RWA futures platform bridges familiar assets with crypto-native settlement – bringing institutional-grade efficiency to both sides of the market.”

RWAs that have been tokenized are blockchain-based equivalents of conventional assets like treasuries, commodities, and stocks. These tokenized RWAs allow for exposure to off-chain markets while maintaining on-chain settlement and collateral structures. Exchanges and financial institutions are building tokenized infrastructure for both institutional and retail traders, which has resulted in the industry being one of the sectors of digital assets that is expanding at the quickest rate.

While the majority of tokenization attempts have concentrated on debt and fund products, the expansion of BTCC into futures-based RWAs illustrates the growing engagement of derivatives traders in this burgeoning market area. The expansion of the exchange’s RWA volume is in line with the larger trend of convergence between conventional finance and cryptocurrency markets. This trend is occurring as trading platforms experiment with tokenized versions of existing financial assets.

Established in 2011, the BTCC caters to more than ten million registered customers in more than one hundred different countries. Futures and tokenized asset trading that is denominated in stablecoins are both available on the exchange.
