In a significant move for the fintech and digital asset landscape, Bitget Wallet has unveiled its new Bitget Wallet API, aiming to bolster business-to-business (B2B) infrastructure as the demand for onchain trading services intensifies among financial technology firms. This initiative allows partners to streamline access to trading execution, market data, and cross-chain asset transfers via a unified integration, alleviating the burdens of developing and maintaining intricate backend systems.
The launch reflects a notable trend where fintech platforms are favoring specialized infrastructure over the traditional approach of building comprehensive technology stacks in-house. According to estimates from BCG, the B2B fintech services sector is projected to expand at an impressive annual rate of 32%, potentially amassing $285 billion in revenue by the year 2026. This growth is paralleled by the rising popularity of Wallet-as-a-Service and embedded finance solutions.
As decentralized exchanges (DEXs) solidify their significance within the financial ecosystem, trading volumes reached a five-year record high in January 2026, exceeding $400 billion. This surge emphasizes the essential role DEXs play in market liquidity, prompting Bitget Wallet to make its underlying systems accessible to partners in a bid to promote the development of sophisticated trading products while minimizing operational complexities.
Alvin Kan, the Chief Operating Officer of Bitget Wallet, highlighted the challenges associated with fragmented infrastructure in onchain trading. He stressed that by providing partners access to the systems powering their consumer wallet, Bitget Wallet aims to enhance the operational capabilities of other firms seeking to innovate within the trading space.
Central to the new API is Bitget Wallet’s proprietary DEX-based trade execution engine, which currently processes approximately 80% of trades conducted on the platform. The Trading API aggregates liquidity from 80 decentralized trading protocols and supports a diverse range of blockchain networks, including Ethereum, Solana, Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Morph, and BNB Chain. Utilizing advanced routing mechanisms, the system is designed to optimize pricing consistency and minimize the likelihood of failed transactions, boasting success rates in the mid-to-high 90% across major networks.
To ensure reliable trade execution, the API features an automated monitoring system known as Sentinel, which continuously evaluates liquidity sources to exclude unstable or abnormal trading pools before executing trades. Additionally, transactions are protected by MEV (Miner Extractable Value)-protected nodes, which aim to prevent market disruptions such as front-running during volatile trading periods. These enhancements aim to mitigate operational challenges often encountered by trading platforms during peak transaction volumes.
Beyond trade execution, the API suite includes a Market API that delivers real-time pricing and activity data across 33 blockchains, encompassing millions of cryptocurrencies and over 200 widely traded stocks through tokenized market data. This service also offers address-level insights, linking user activity to experienced market participants, along with automated risk indicators to identify unusual assets or trading behaviors.
Another component of the API suite is the Cross-chain API, facilitating seamless conversion and transfer of assets between blockchains in a streamlined process. This function features built-in tracking, enabling users and platforms to monitor transaction progress from initiation to completion.
With over 90 million users globally, Bitget Wallet is designed as a versatile finance application simplifying the use of cryptocurrency in everyday transactions. This fully self-custodial wallet ensures users retain control over their funds, private keys, and data security, supported by an extensive security framework, including a user protection fund totaling $700 million.
