Bitget launches $200 million protection fund to protect users

In the past few months, we have heard horror stories of millions of people losing their personal savings due to the collapse of Celsius. Hundreds of retail investors have gone as far as to send letters to the bankruptcy judge to share their stories of how they lost their money. Some people have contemplated suicide if they can't retrieve their lost criptocurrency investments.

It is because of this reason that Bitget is a digital asset trading platform and global derivatives exchange, which is on a mission to safeguard users' digital assets, address investors' security concerns, and increase their confidence, especially during the bear market.

The $200 million Bitget Protection Fund was launched today as part of its ongoing efforts to make sure its users' assets are safeguarded. The goal of the fund, which consists of 6000 BTC and 80 million USDT, is to provide a secure and safe trading experience for users around the world.

Bitget pledged to secure the value of the fund for the next three years. The fund will serve as a safeguard for the Bitget users and the Bitget trading platform, while also helping to instill a new era of safety and protection in the space as a whole.
