Bitget, recognized as the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), is celebrating its 7th anniversary under the theme #GearUpTo7, marking a significant milestone in its evolution and the introduction of an integrated finance era.
Since its inception, Bitget has seen considerable growth through strategic partnerships and community initiatives. Over the past seven years, collaborations with notable figures and organizations, including football superstar Lionel Messi, Juventus FC, MotoGP, LaLiga, and the UNTOLD music festival, have broadened its appeal beyond traditional cryptocurrency circles. The exchange has also launched educational initiatives like Blockchain4Youth and Blockchain4Her, positively impacting over 15,000 young people and collaborating with more than 60 universities worldwide. Notably, its partnership with UNICEF aims to educate one million individuals about blockchain by 2027, a feat yet to be matched in the Web3 sector.
In its continuous drive for innovation, Bitget is now positioning itself as the Universal Exchange (UEX), a vision articulated by CEO Gracy Chen. This initiative aims to create a comprehensive ecosystem that resolves the longstanding “impossible triangle” of exchanges: user experience, asset variety, and security. By integrating centralized and decentralized services, along with advanced AI tools and security measures, Bitget aspires to lead the market as the first UEX globally.
Recent developments have already begun aligning with this new identity. In the third quarter of 2025, Bitget Onchain extended full support for significant blockchain assets, including Ethereum, BSC, Base, and Solana. Strategic collaborations with xStocks and Ondo have made it easier for users to access tokenized stocks and ETFs. Furthermore, the platform has introduced the first Stock Futures, allowing users to trade traditional financial instruments like Apple (AAPL) and NVIDIA (NVDA) as crypto derivatives. Gracy Chen expressed a commitment to expanding the platform’s offerings to include not only the hundreds of established cryptocurrencies but also a variety of assets such as stocks, ETFs, gold, and forex.
A unique feature of the UEX is its integration with AI, leveraging Bitget’s proprietary AI tool, GetAgent. This tool provides real-time data analysis, delivering actionable insights and customized trading strategies to users. Accompanying GetAgent, a suite of automated trading bots facilitates continuous market participation, bridging the analysis-action gap.
“Our growth over the past seven years is based on a methodical approach used to build an infrastructure that serves the evolving needs of traders, investors, and institutions,” stated Gracy Chen. “We’re shifting towards providing easier access and clean integration of emerging finance into our daily lives. As the first UEX, Bitget is set to lead this transition with tools and products that meet current and future demands of users worldwide.”
The design of UEX also emphasizes robust security measures, incorporating intelligent tools to identify potential threats, such as token concentration or rug-pull risks. This is further supported by Bitget’s User Protection Fund, which currently stands at over $700 million.
Bitget’s strategic growth has focused on sustainable, measurable progress rather than rapid expansion. It has enhanced its presence in key emerging markets, including Southeast Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East, through localized community efforts, multilingual support, and offline engagement.
As regulatory compliance remains a centerpiece of Bitget’s operations, the company has successfully secured licenses and registrations in several jurisdictions, including Italy, Poland, Lithuania, Czechia, El Salvador, Argentina, Bulgaria, and Georgia. A dedicated compliance team—comprised of over 70 experts—works collaboratively with regulators to develop sustainable frameworks and cultivate trust in cryptocurrency markets.
In celebration of its 7th anniversary, Bitget has launched the “Gear Up to 7” campaign this September. The initiative includes global events such as the #GearUpTo7 Sprint Challenge, boasting a $400,000 USDT prize pool, and a Bitget-themed MotoGP racing motorcycle. Motorcycle parades in multiple cities, an anniversary anthem by crypto influencer Lil Bubble, and a TopGear Night afterparty at TOKEN2049 are designed to foster community engagement. The platform will also host its inaugural Smart Awards, honoring traders whose resilience and success have significantly contributed to Bitget’s achievements.
As Bitget embarks on this new chapter, it remains focused on creating long-term frameworks that connect users, assets, and markets while raising the bar for security, accessibility, and innovation within the crypto landscape and beyond.
