Bitget is a centralized cryptocurrency exchange. The platform has faced regulatory warnings in several jurisdictions.[2]

History

[edit]

Bitget was founded in 2018.[3]

In 2021, Bitget listed and promoted ARMY, a token named after the BTS fanbase.[4] According to The Korea Times, Bitget’s promotional posts described the token as existing for the “benefit of BTS” and suggested it aimed to support BTS members financially “for life”.[5] After being listed on Bitget, token price saw an upsurge from merely 6 cents to a high of $7.80 (by more than 5,000% at one point).[6] BTS’s management company Hybe threatened legal action over its promotion. After that Singapore’s financial regulator suspended Bitget in connection with allegations of misleading marketing related to ARMY token.[7] Bitget later announced it would delist ARMY and keep withdrawals open for a limited period.[8]

In 2023, Bitget's Hong Kong-based subsidiary BitgetX (BGX) ceased operations and withdraw from the jurisdiction Around the same time, OSL group disclosed agreement with BGX and said it intended to use the net proceeds (about HK$710 million) for regulated subsidiaries, and general working capital.[9][10] BGX denied an affiliation with Bitget, while noting a common shareholder and that Pan Zhiyong had served as CEO of both BitgetX and BGX.[11]

In 2023, Bitget became involved in a public dispute with an indian influencer Evan Luthra following the exchange’s listing of token called REELT. Luthra, who served as an adviser, received tokens as compensation, stated that exchange froze his account and suspended withdrawals, alleging that about US$200,000 in funds was blocked after he sold tokens on the platform. Luthra subsequently filed legal action seeking damages (reported as US$16 million) and the release of the frozen funds.[12]

In 2025, Bybit exchange repaid the 40,000 (roughly $100 million) ETH post-hack loan from Bitget.[13]

In 2025, Bitget was hacked on perpetual futures, suspending certain accounts.[14] The exchange said it would roll back trades linked to the suspected activity and provide compensation to users affected by the incident. Exchange announced legal action against eight accounts it accused of manipulating the VOXEL token and profiting by more than US$20 million, adding that any recovered funds would be redistributed to users (which it described as via an airdrop). Two participants in the episode denied market manipulation, arguing that the losses stemmed from misconfigured exchange market-making settings. VOXEL/USDT contract volume briefly exceeded US$12 billion and that Bitget’s account freezes and post-trade rollbacks drew criticism from some traders, who questioned the exchange’s risk controls and the fairness of reversing executed trades.[15]
