Bitget partners with Block Scholes to release research report: Cross-asset hedging has become a mainstream strategy

Bitget, in collaboration with data research firm Block Scholes, has jointly released a report analyzing the correlation trends between crypto assets and traditional financial markets under macroeconomic event-driven conditions, based on Q1 2026 market data. The report notes that as Bitcoin’s correlation with major stock indices has risen to one of the highest levels since the end of 2025, traders’ demand for real-time cross-market allocation is increasing. Data shows that Bitget’s CFD business volume has demonstrated sustained growth: daily trading volume stood at approximately $2 billion at launch, rose to $4 billion shortly thereafter, and surged beyond $6 billion during periods of heightened market volatility. According to the report, this shift reflects how some users are progressively integrating crypto assets, equities, and commodities into a unified trading framework for coordinated management—rather than treating them as entirely separate trading strategies. The report further highlights that, against the backdrop of continuously strengthening multi-asset correlations and increasingly pronounced macro-driven trading characteristics, Unified Exchanges (UEX)—platforms that integrate crypto assets and traditional financial instruments within a single account system—are drawing growing attention from active traders and are gradually becoming a key venue for cross-asset allocation.
