According to CoinDesk, European financial and cryptocurrency industry organizations have written to the EU Council and the European Parliament, urging lawmakers to remove the cap on the scale of tokenized securities platforms or set it at least at €1.5 trillion (approximately $1.74 trillion), arguing that the €100 billion cap proposed by the European Commission will hinder industry development. Signatories include the French Digital Asset Association Adan, Crypto Council for Innovation, the European Ethereum Institute, as well as companies like Nasdaq and Boerse Stuttgart.The EU's distributed ledger pilot regime allows operators to test the trading and settlement of tokenized stocks, bonds, and investment funds while exempting some existing financial rules. After observing "moderate" participation, the European Commission proposed to expand the pilot framework and raise the current €6 billion cap to €100 billion. Adan stated that considering the development of the global market, this increase is still insufficient, and their preferred option is to completely remove the cap or at least set it to €1.5 trillion, which is 15 times the proposed cap.The joint letter pointed out that some existing European projects have reached a scale of €350 billion and plan to grow further, but did not disclose specific projects or calculation methods. The letter also emphasized that the relevant threshold targets the market capitalization of admitted securities rather than trading volume and opposed giving central securities depositories a significantly higher differentiated cap than other blockchain market operators, arguing that this would be detrimental to emerging service providers.The alliance also compared the restrictive measures in Europe with an unnamed mainstream settlement platform in the United States, which can tokenize assets like stocks without a trading volume cap; if the cap is retained, the alliance hopes the Commission can flexibly raise it as the market grows, without presetting a maximum limit.

According to official news from Bitget, Bitget has completed a comprehensive upgrade of its U.S. stock product market data source, officially connecting to the Nasdaq official data source, becoming the first cryptocurrency trading platform in the industry to adopt this data standard. Compared to the previous data model, Nasdaq official data can provide users with more accurate and timely market data, and maintain better price stability and continuity during periods of significant market fluctuations.To further ensure data quality, after connecting to the official data, Bitget has established a multi-layered assurance mechanism based on the official metadata, including data processing, real-time monitoring, quality comparison, simulation validation, and anomaly data filtering. Nasdaq, as a core data service provider long adopted by global financial markets, has had its data standards validated over many years in the traditional financial sector.This upgrade also marks a further deepening of Bitget's global asset trading infrastructure development. As the trading categories gradually expand from digital assets to global assets such as U.S. stocks, the platform will continue to enhance its underlying data, liquidity, and risk management capabilities, and introduce more mature institutional-level market standards to provide individual investors and institutional clients with a more stable and efficient cross-market trading experience, continuously enhancing the comprehensive competitiveness of its Universal Exchange (UEX).
