Bitget Monthly Report: Futures Ranks Among Top 3 For ETH Amidst New All-Time Highs
In Brief
In August 2025, Bitget reported record trading volumes, launched the first RWA Index Perpetuals, expanded global services, advanced community initiatives, and reinforced its ecosystem and token utility.
Cryptocurrency exchange Bitget published its August 2025 Transparency Report, highlighting advancements in product innovation, trading activity, and global expansion.
The report pointed out the launch of the first Real-World Asset (RWA) Index Perpetuals, enabling trading of a rebalanced basket of tokenized equities and indices within a single instrument. During the same month, Bitget recorded $750 billion in derivatives volume, bringing cumulative totals to $11.5 trillion, while receiving industry recognition for leading ETH and SOL liquidity.
“Bitget has built a reputation for launching products with the right market fit. Pioneering the RWA tokenization Index Perpetuals is strategic, considering it is one of the most promising sectors in the industry,” said Vugar Usi Zade, COO of Bitget, to Mpost.
“The launch has placed Ethereum futures in the spotlight, as our platform recorded up to $7 billion in volume in the past month. This market data proves that both retail and institutional investors are not willing to sit out any innovation with Ethereum as the backbone,” he added.
Further demonstrating its presence in the derivatives sector, Bitget ranked among the top three global exchanges for open interest in both Bitcoin and Ethereum futures, according to reports from Coinglass. Data showed that Bitcoin futures volumes on Bitget surpassed $10 billion, while Ethereum futures consistently maintained levels between $5 billion and $7 billion, with open interest in ETH ending the month above $6 billion.
“Bitget operates in a very competitive market but has managed to retain its dominance because of its simplicity, focus on core user needs, and overall platform safety. Bitget’s Protection Fund has surged to over $700 million in value, more than doubling its original size, demonstrating the company’s commitment to protecting user assets,” commented Vugar Usi Zade.
“Institutional participation has reshaped Bitget’s business mix: in H1 2025, institutions were responsible for 80% of spot trading volume, 50% of derivatives volume, and Bitget’s institutional assets under management (AUM) doubled year-on-year,” he added.
Alongside trading growth, Bitget also advanced its regional strategy, most notably through the launch of the USD-based Wallet Card in collaboration with Mastercard across Latin America. This initiative enabled users in Argentina, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Peru, and Guatemala to spend stablecoins at more than 150 million merchants worldwide. In addition, the exchange expanded its fiat onboarding options by introducing instant Visa and Mastercard deposits, supporting access to cryptocurrencies in over 140 different fiat currencies. These developments reflect Bitget’s ongoing efforts to expand both its global reach and its product offering, while maintaining momentum in a competitive market.
Commenting on the adoption of Mastercard-powered stablecoin cards in Latin America and their role in expanding Bitget’s global user base, as well as the implications for cryptocurrency payment integration and regional market penetration, Vugar Usi Zade noted that Bitget considers research to be the foundation of its product launches. He added that the Mastercard-powered stablecoin in Brazil has been one of the company’s most successful product rollouts this year, explaining that, given the common bottlenecks associated with fiat currency in the region, users view the stablecoin cards as an essential tool for meeting everyday payment needs.
“Per the feedback thus far, the no-fee clause on USD payments and the excellent customer experience are expected to further drive major crypto adoption in Latin America,” he highlighted.
Bitget Advances Cultural Integration, Expands BGB Utility, And Strengthens Transparency In August 2025
August was also marked by notable cultural and community-oriented initiatives. Bitget participated in large-scale events, including the co-creation of Web3 experiences at the UNTOLD Festival in Romania and active involvement in regional gatherings such as Blockchain Rio, GM Vietnam, and Coinfest Asia. These activities reflected the exchange’s approach of integrating technology with broader cultural and industry ecosystems. At the same time, Bitget introduced GetAgent, an AI-driven trading assistant, and concluded the KCGI 2025 trading competition, which achieved record participation with more than 120,000 traders from 80 countries.
The platform’s ecosystem token, BGB, registered further progress over the month, highlighted by the burn of 60 million tokens and the addition of new utility applications. These measures contributed to a 3% price increase and reinforced BGB’s central role within Bitget’s ecosystem. In parallel, the exchange’s Proof-of-Reserves ratio maintained a level well above 1:1, with Bitcoin reserves close to 200%, supporting Bitget’s positioning as a secure and transparent venue for trading activity during periods of heightened market volatility.
Heading into the final quarter of 2025, Bitget outlines plans to broaden its ecosystem, deepen international partnerships, and introduce additional avenues for global users to interact with digital assets in ways that align with their individual preferences.
