Bitget is cementing its position as one of the world’s most influential crypto exchanges, with new data showing its trading infrastructure and liquidity attracting a wave of institutional adoption.
CoinDesk’s latest Market Data Deep-Dive ranks the platform among the top four globally for derivatives activity and one of the strongest venues for execution quality.
Derivatives Powerhouse With Institutional Strength
From November 2023 through June 2025, Bitget handled $11.5 trillion in derivatives trades, averaging $750 billion in monthly volume this year. Nearly 90% of activity came from derivatives, underscoring Bitget’s dominance in that segment.
Institutions are playing a larger role: in the first half of 2025, they drove 80% of spot trading and half of all derivatives activity on the exchange. That participation helped Bitget’s assets under management double in less than a year. Analysts attribute this momentum to initiatives such as the Liquidity Incentive Program, institutional lending products, and an upcoming unified margin system.
BGB Token Joins Bitcoin and Ethereum at the Top
Bitget’s own token, BGB, has emerged as a key growth engine. In May, it was the third-most traded spot asset after Bitcoin and Ethereum, propelling the exchange’s spot market share to a record 5.2%. Together, BTC, ETH, and BGB accounted for nearly half of all spot transactions.
Liquidity and Execution Quality
CoinDesk’s report praised Bitget’s order book depth, ranking it first for Ethereum and Solana liquidity and second for Bitcoin spot liquidity within 1% of the mid-price. Slippage on $100,000 BTC trades averaged just 0.0074%, placing Bitget among the top three exchanges globally for trade execution quality.
CEO Gracy Chen on Institutional Trust
“We’ve been deliberate about how we scale, delivering world-class products alongside robust security,” said Bitget CEO Gracy Chen. “This report validates what we’ve seen internally: institutions are here, and they choose Bitget.”
Expanding Reach With Onchain
Bitget’s launch of its Onchain platform in April 2025 boosted spot volumes by 32% month-over-month. The exchange has also grown its footprint in XRP derivatives, Layer-1 assets, and memecoin markets, supported by a hybrid model that blends on-chain and off-chain liquidity.
With scale, execution, and institutional trust on its side, Bitget is positioning itself not just as a derivatives powerhouse but as a key player in the broader evolution of global crypto trading.
