Bitget has registered a significant increase in institutional trading volume at $23.1 billion. According to a new study, Bitget is now the second exchange in the world in terms of institutional liquidity.
Bitget’s Rise to a Global Trading Hub
Research conducted by the blockchain analytics firm Nansen claims that Bitget has quickly evolved into an international liquidity platform. This has happened after its introduction of the Universal Exchange (UEX) framework.
Institutional participation on the platform grew sharply this year, with spot trading volume climbing from 39.4% in January to 72.6% in July. Futures trading also followed, as market makers increased their share from 3% to more than 56% in the same period.
A recent Bitget report shows that emerging markets such as Nigeria, China, and India are driving user growth. These regions now account for much of the platform’s global trading activity.
Nansen’s research noted that Bitget’s liquidity depth now rivals major centralized exchanges. Its Amihud illiquidity ratio stands at 0.0014, and its Roll spread at 9.02 basis points, both indicators of strong market efficiency.
Bitget Expands Institutional Lending and Custody Infrastructure
Even in volatile conditions, most of Bitget’s trading pairs showed consistent depth and low slippage. Nicolai Søndergaard, a research analyst at Nansen, said the data reflects measurable progress in Bitget’s institutional trading performance.
He noted that order-book strength and tighter spreads suggest that Bitget is becoming an exchange suitable for professional funds and corporate traders. Bitget’s CEO Gracy Chen said the company’s evolution into a Universal Exchange represents a new phase for market access.
She further said that institutional investors demand reliability, and the firm aims to give them both confidence and execution quality. The firm has also expanded its ecosystem through innovation partnerships.
An example is the Bitget collaboration with Google Developer Group to advance AI-driven market solutions. The exchange has expanded its institutional loan and custody infrastructure to support larger clients.
It now offers tailored lending programs of up to $10 million in USDT, cross-collateral options for over 300 assets. Also, the firm has established partnerships with major custodians such as Fireblocks, Copper, and OSL.
UEX Framework Redefines Institutional Crypto Trading
The UEX model by Bitget connects centralized and decentralized finance. It enables users to perform trading, investment, and liquidity management functions within a single system.
This model integrates in-depth order books and tokenized access to markets. Hence, it makes Bitget a trading platform as well as a financial gateway. The report suggests that institutional adoption has become a defining feature of crypto markets in 2025.
Liquidity and execution quality now act as the main measures of trust among investors. More money, ETFs, and corporate treasuries are coming to the space. Hence, Bitget’s performance is a way of understanding how exchanges are adapting themselves to professional practices.
