Bitget charges no fees throughout the entire transfer process.After transfer, the rTokens can be directly integrated into Bitget's Universal Exchange (UEX) ecosystem, where they can be used for wealth management, lending, margin, and other yield-generating products, enhancing the capital efficiency and use cases of stock assets. To coincide with the feature launch, Bitget has simultaneously introduced a reward campaign featuring a total of $1 million in SpaceX stock tokens (rSPCX). Users can earn corresponding SpaceX stock rewards based on their transfer amounts, with rewards distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Users can select the stocks and quantities they wish to transfer on the US stock transfer page and use the in-page reward calculator to view the estimated transfer amount and corresponding campaign rewards.Bitget CEO Gracy Chen stated: "This feature is designed to help investors consolidate stock assets scattered across different brokerages into a unified ecosystem without selling their existing holdings, enabling flexible allocation across asset classes."

Odaily: ASML Holding NV (ASML.O)'s capacity expansion guidance has become a key focal point on its earnings release day. As the semiconductor sector's rally loses momentum, investors are eager for signs of confidence, making the capacity guidance all the more significant. After a strong rally in the first half of the year, semiconductor stocks have recently cooled off. Following another decline in US chip stocks, South Korean chipmakers' shares fell to a two-month low on Tuesday. Over the next 48 hours, investors will closely watch the earnings performance of ASML and its key customer TSMC, hoping the two companies can shore up market confidence.Ben Barringer, Head of Technology Research at Quilter Cheviot, said: "Capacity is the biggest focus for the market right now. With no visibility into order data and limited backlog information, it is crucial for the company to raise its capacity targets." ASML previously stopped disclosing quarterly order data, citing significant order volatility, and instead began providing guidance on the number of units it expects to produce this year and in the coming years. Investors are increasingly relying on this metric to gauge demand strength and ASML's ability to expand supply. (Jinshi)
