what's bitget?
Bitget is a prominent cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 platform founded in 2018, offering a comprehensive suite of trading services for users worldwide. It supports spot trading, futures, margin trading, and copy trading features, enabling users to buy, sell, and hold over 500 cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and various altcoins. The platform emphasizes user security with a protection fund exceeding $300 million and integrates tools like P2P trading for fiat-to-crypto conversions. Beyond traditional exchange functionalities, Bitget provides access to decentralized finance (DeFi) through its wallet (formerly BitKeep, acquired in 2023), which supports multi-chain operations across Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, and over 100 blockchains. This allows seamless asset management, swaps, staking, and interactions with decentralized applications (DApps). Bitget also innovates with features like tokenized stock trading, AI-powered trading assistants, and on-chain trading without requiring external wallets. The exchange's native ecosystem is powered by the Bitget Token (BGB), which offers benefits such as reduced trading fees, participation in launchpads, and staking rewards. Bitget serves over 100 million users in more than 150 countries, focusing on accessibility, low fees, and advanced trading tools to bridge centralized and decentralized finance.
