VICTORIA, Seychelles, Sept. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bitget, the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, has released its August 2025 Transparency Report, showing its strengthened position as one of the most innovative and resilient players in the digital asset industry. The report reflects another month of product breakthroughs, record trading activity, and community-driven initiatives that continue to expand Bitget’s global influence.

August saw the launch of the industry’s first Real-World Asset (RWA) Index Perpetuals, marking a pivotal step in bridging traditional finance and decentralized markets. The product allows users to trade a dynamic basket of tokenized equities and indices in a single instrument, with flexible rebalancing and transparent pricing. In parallel, Bitget achieved a milestone of $750 billion in monthly derivatives volume, bringing its cumulative total to $11.5 trillion and earning recognition in CoinDesk’s Market Data Deep-Dive for leading ETH and SOL liquidity globally.

In August, Bitget continued its leadership in derivatives trading, ranking among the top 3 global exchanges for both Bitcoin and Ethereum futures open interest, according to The Block and Coinglass. Bitcoin futures on Bitget surpassed $10 billion, while Ethereum futures consistently held between $5–7 billion, with ETH open interest trending above $6 billion by month’s end.

Regional growth also accelerated with the rollout of the USD-based Wallet Card across Latin America, in partnership with Mastercard. This initiative empowered users in Argentina, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Peru, and Guatemala to spend stablecoins at more than 150 million merchants worldwide. The introduction of instant Visa and Mastercard deposits further simplified fiat onboarding and expanded access to crypto for users across 140 currencies.

August also brought cultural impact at scale. From co-creating immersive Web3 experiences at UNTOLD Festival in Romania to strengthening local ecosystems at Blockchain Rio, GM Vietnam, and Coinfest Asia, Bitget reinforced its reputation as a brand that merges technology with culture. These activations coincided with the launch of GetAgent, an AI-powered trading assistant, and the record-breaking conclusion of the KCGI 2025 trading competition, which drew over 120,000 participants across 80 countries.

Bitget’s ecosystem token, BGB, also advanced during the month, with a burn of 60 million tokens and new utility integrations, supporting a 3% price increase and reinforcing its role at the heart of the platform. The exchange’s Proof-of-Reserves ratio remained strong at well above 1:1, with Bitcoin reserves trending near 200%, continuing to differentiate Bitget as a transparent and secure trading venue during volatile market phases.

Gracy Chen, CEO at Bitget, said: “Every milestone we achieved in August reflects our belief that crypto is not just about building markets, but about shaping experiences that connect people, ideas, and opportunities. From pioneering RWA perpetuals to bringing Web3 to music festivals and classrooms, we are proving that finance, culture, and technology can move forward together. Our vision remains clear: to empower a truly global community and build the most trusted gateway into the future of digital assets.”

As Bitget moves into the final quarter of 2025, the exchange will continue to expand its ecosystem, strengthen global partnerships, and deliver new ways for users worldwide to engage with crypto on their own terms.
