Sawadika 🇹🇭 Bitget has acquired a Bangkok-based licensed digital asset exchange and brokerage — a real milestone on our regulatory path in Southeast Asia. Thailand is one of the region’s most dynamic markets, and this gives us a licensed local foundation to build operations the right way. No complaints about the country. The food, the culture, the people — genuinely love it. The motorbikes to make every meeting on time… also growing on me. 🏍️

Grateful to @theindexsite and Amanda Smith for this profile. It ran two weeks after the hardest test of my time as CEO, so I read it less as a story about me and more as a checklist of what this job actually demands: 1. Trust is the product. When we were hit on Sept 24, the only question that mattered was whether users' balances were safe. The Protection Fund Bitget built back in 2022 absorbed the loss, and we reopened withdrawals in phases with live updates along the way. The "boring" decisions made in good times are what carry you through bad ones. 2. Judge assets, not hype. The ICO era isn't coming back. Users want real assets and sustainable business models. At its peak this year, around 40% of our volume came from non-crypto assets. 3. Lead teams, not titles. Most of the job is making hard calls and helping people understand them, at work and at home. Still a lot to earn and build. Thank you to everyone who stood by us.

They say all great trades start before the crowd arrives. Jio Platforms' upcoming IPO is already the talk of global capital markets — and today, Bitget brings that conversation to the derivatives market. JIOUSDT Pre-IPO Perpetuals are now live. The first India-grade pre-IPO perpetual on a global exchange.

Tokenization is just Step 1. Step 2 is making capital more mobile, efficient and useful. Now, users can bring 3,000+ US-listed stocks and ETFs from their brokerage accounts into Bitget as rTokens. This is an important step toward connecting traditional markets with digital asset infrastructure, and we are building toward a future where assets can move more freely and work better for their holders.

I haven't been tweeting much lately, having just wrapped up the whirlwind of Token2049 and F1. A big thank you to the many clients and partners who joined us in celebrating our 8th anniversary. 最近发推比较少，刚从token2049和F1的疯狂中结束，感谢很多客户、合作伙伴跟我们一起度过8岁生日。

Bitget has fully distributed the first batch of rewards for its Stand Together Program, paying out 1.9 million USDT to 760,000 users who participated in the first three days. Thanks to all users for your trust, and we'll stand and move forward together.

We have never touched customer funds — which is why, even after this incident, our reserve ratio remains above 131%. That's not a coincidence. It's many years of discipline. Thank you for your trust. We're coming back stronger.

ICYMI - we just sat down with @bitget CEO @GracyBitget for the latest details following a $388M hack. - Bitget deposits/withdrawals are back up - Early onchain data suggests DPRK hackers, but Chen said they want to wait for more info - Bitget doesn't expect to recover funds, will use User Protection Fund to cover - UPF had $464M - this will be replenished in the next week More details coming soon. Thanks again to Gracy for taking the time to chat after a crazy few days

From September 28, 10:00 AM (UTC) to October 30, at 09:00 AM (UTC), eligible PRO clients will receive a 20% discount on their applicable spot and futures taker fee rates. The adjusted rates will be applied automatically to eligible accounts during this period.

We appreciate your partnership and remain committed to supporting your trading needs with clear and meaningful benefits. If any questions, feel free to reach out at: institutional@bitget.com

Appreciate @near_intents / SHIELD for stepping up on the Bitget incident: flagged $50M+ in attempted laundering flows, froze $503k mid-execution, and waived their own bounty share so we can recover more. This is what permissionless but not "facilitating known stolen funds" should look like. A public chain doesn't have to choose between being open and excluding hackers, you can build the risk detection in and still let anyone use the chain. More protocols should take notes. We'll follow the appropriate legal and recovery process on our end. Thank you for showing up and this matters a lot, to Bitget and to our industry. @AlexAuroraDev @ilblackdragon @NEARProtocol

Quick recap from today's livestream: 1. Withdrawals BTC live on Bitcoin Mainnet & BSC — 9,585 orders, 4,098.036 BTC processed as of 17:00 UTC+8. ETH, USDT, others follow in phases starting tomorrow. 2. What happened Full trace-back complete. The attacker exploited vulnerabilities from third-party products to steal internal credentials, then used those credentials to send fraudulent withdrawal commands that bypassed our risk controls. Private keys were not compromised, and cold wallets were not affected. 3. Security measures taken -The incident has been contained. Affected systems were isolated and the vulnerability has been remediated. -Relevant servers were isolated to prevent further compromise and preserve forensic evidence. -Internal credentials were revoked and reissued, with access to highly sensitive systems restructured. -We notified the relevant third-party vendor, shared details of the vulnerability and disabled the affected functionality pending a fix. -Mandiant and SlowMist continue to support the independent forensic investigation and asset-tracing efforts. 4. Your funds 100% covered by the Bitget Protection Fund. No user impact. Fund will be topped back up to >$300M with our own capital within the week. 5. Bitget Project Stand Together We’re launching Project Stand Together for our retail, VIP and professional users, including a trading-fee reward pool and additional benefits and protections for eligible VIP, PRO and market-maker participants. Details can be found in the links below: Retail & VIP: PRO & institutional: This is our first security incident of this nature in eight years.
