Bitget’s Big Moves in Q2
Aside from recording significant growth in capital inflow and crypto holdings, Bitget launched two new initial token listing products: PoolX and Pre-market.

These products facilitated the launch of over 100 projects, offering high-potential opportunities and attracting heavy user participation.
Bitget also partnered with three Turkish national athletes: wrestler Buse Tosun Çavuşoğlu, boxer Samet Gümüş, and volleyball player İlkin Aydın. These collaborations are part of the company’s broader campaign featuring football legend and Argentina captain Lionel Messi.
In partnership with Foresight Ventures, Bitget introduced a $20 million TON Ecosystem Fund to aid early-stage projects developing on The Open Network (TON). The development aims to speed up growth and expansion within the TON community, which coincides with Bitget’s objective of promoting the broad adoption of digital assets.
