Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), is celebrating its seventh anniversary with the theme of #GearUpTo7, marking a significant milestone in its journey toward creating a comprehensive integrated finance ecosystem. Over the past seven years, Bitget has expanded globally through strategic partnerships and community initiatives that have enabled the platform to transcend the boundaries of cryptocurrency.
The exchange has established collaborations with renowned names and brands, including football superstar Lionel Messi, Juventus FC, MotoGP, LaLiga, and the UNTOLD music festival. These partnerships have helped Bitget connect with mainstream audiences and cultural movements worldwide. Additionally, Bitget has fostered educational charity initiatives such as Blockchain4Youth and Blockchain4Her, positively impacting over 15,000 young people in more than 60 universities around the globe. A notable collaboration with UNICEF aims to educate 1 million individuals about blockchain technology by 2027, setting a high bar for educational outreach in the Web3 space.
As Bitget introduces itself as a Universal Exchange, it aims to revolutionize how decentralized and centralized services coexist. This vision, articulated by CEO Gracy Chen, seeks to tackle the “impossible triangle” of exchanges by simultaneously enhancing user experience, offering a diverse range of assets, and ensuring robust security. By integrating various services, including AI tools, Bitget is pioneering the UEX model, transforming itself into the first of its kind on the global stage.
In recent months, Bitget Onchain has expanded its support to include popular digital assets from Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain (BSC), Base, and Solana. Collaborations with xStocks and Ondo have introduced tokenized stocks and ETFs, while the launch of Stock Futures allows for trading traditional instruments like Apple (AAPL) and NVIDIA (NVDA) in the realm of crypto derivatives. This broadening of tradeable assets signals Bitget’s commitment to supporting not just leading cryptocurrencies but also a wider array of global financial assets, including stocks, ETFs, gold, and forex.
Bitget’s unique integration of AI—through its proprietary tool, GetAgent—augments user experience by providing real-time data analysis and actionable insights. This innovative approach aims to bridge the gap between market analysis and execution, empowering users with automated trading bots for easier engagement with the market.
“The growth we’ve seen in our seven years stems from our planned approach in building an infrastructure that adapts to the evolving needs of traders, investors, and institutions,” said Gracy Chen. “As the first Universal Exchange, Bitget is set to lead the charge in blending emerging finance into everyday access.”
In terms of security, UEX promises advanced protection by combining both on-chain and off-chain measures. Intelligent tools will monitor for early signs of token concentration or rug-pull risks, backed by a User Protection Fund valued at over $700 million.
Bitget’s growth strategy has focused on sustainable and measurable progress rather than rapid expansion. The platform has made significant inroads into emerging markets in Southeast Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East, offering localized community programs and multilingual support.
With regulatory alignment as a cornerstone of its strategy, Bitget has acquired licenses in Italy, Poland, Lithuania, and several other jurisdictions, backed by a compliance team of over 70 experts dedicated to establishing trust in the crypto market.
In September, to mark its seventh anniversary, Bitget is launching the “Gear Up to 7” campaign, which includes various events like the #GearUpTo7 Sprint Challenge featuring a total prize pool of $400,000 USDT. The celebrations will also encompass a Bitget-themed MotoGP racing motorcycle and multiple Motorcycle Parades across major cities, culminating in a TopGear Night afterparty at TOKEN2049. Additionally, Bitget will hold its inaugural Smart Awards to honor traders who have contributed to the platform’s success.
As the company reflects on its journey, it remains committed to connecting users, assets, and markets, while continuously striving to set new standards in the fields of security, accessibility, and innovation within the crypto industry and beyond.
