Bitget Introduces Free Level 2 US Stock Market Data, Expanding Access To Institutional-Grade Trading Insights

Cryptocurrency exchange Bitget introduced free access to Level 2 market data for US stocks, becoming one of the first trading platforms to provide professional-grade market depth information to eligible users without additional subscription fees.

The move expands access to trading tools that have traditionally been reserved for institutional investors and professional trading firms due to the costs associated with exchange data licensing. By offering the service at no extra charge to qualifying users, Bitget aims to reduce barriers to advanced market information and provide greater transparency into liquidity and order flow across U.S. equity markets.

The service includes Nasdaq TotalView and Blue Ocean market data feeds, delivering up to 40 levels of bid and ask depth, depth charts, and real-time trade data. Coverage extends across pre-market, regular trading, after-hours, and overnight sessions. Eligible users who meet VIP 1 requirements through trading volume or VIP 3 requirements through asset holdings can access the data free of charge, representing potential annual savings of up to $276 compared with conventional market data subscriptions.

Expanding Access to Institutional-Grade Market Intelligence

The launch follows the rollout of Bitget’s Stocks 2.0 offering, which broadened access to equities, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), stock perpetual contracts, tokenized assets, and additional multi-asset trading features. The company noted that growing convergence between cryptocurrency and traditional financial markets has increased demand for institutional-grade analytics and trading tools across different asset classes.

“Crypto makes financial opportunities more open and accessible,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget in a written statement. “In traditional markets, data and insights come at a premium. We’re eradicating that by making professional grade stock market data available to our users, who can now access tools that were once limited to a small segment of the market,” she added. 

The introduction of free Level 2 market data forms part of Bitget’s broader Universal Exchange strategy, which seeks to integrate digital assets and tokenized financial products within a unified trading environment. Through the combination of multi-asset market access and advanced trading infrastructure, the company continues to develop a platform designed to support participation across both cryptocurrency and traditional financial markets from a single interface.
