According to the company’s spokesperson, Bitget is debt-free and has adequate cash flow due to its steady development.
Bitget, one of the leading crypto derivatives exchanges, has announced the launch of a $100 million fund to help well-structured Web3 projects worldwide. However, Bitget will pay more attention to Web3 projects in Asia through the $100 million fund. Following the announcement, Bitget’s native token, BGB, edged 2 percent higher during the early Asian market session to trade around $0.466.
Notably, Bitget is involved in several venture capital firms including Foresight Ventures, ABCDE Capital, SevenX Ventures, DAO Maker, and Dragonfly Capital. Reportedly, Dragonfly Capital announced the support of Bitget’s Web3 fund with about $10 million. As a result, Bitget will help Web3 crypto projects with promising future growth prospects to obtain market recognition. Moreover, the prolonged bear market has severely affected even top crypto-ranked crypto companies due to low trading volume and non-performing loans.
“Despite the bear run, Bitget has always been supporting promising and innovative projects and the development of the Web3 environment with a focus on BUIDL. The launch of Bitget Web3 Fund is a continuation of our ongoing efforts to drive the adoption of crypto and Web3, reflecting our ‘Go beyond derivative’ strategy in 2023,” Gracy Chen, managing director of Bitget, noted.
Bitget takes pride in global recognition with over 470 coins listed for trading. According to market data provided by Coingecko, Bitget reported a 24-hour trading volume of approximately $534,406,549. With over 8 million registered users, Bitget has announced that it is well-positioned to tackle future crypto volatility at ease. According to the company’s spokeswoman, Bitget’s Web3 fund is self-funded.
“Bitget is debt-free with adequate cash flow, thanks to its steady development and fast-growing business,” she said.
