The token received a significant boost after the exchange merged BGB and BWB.
It quadrupled its value last month, while its yearly gain is 1,361 per cent.
Bitget Token (BGB) has gained another significant boost as the cryptocurrency exchange behind it, Bitget, merged two native tokens into one. As a result, the value of BGB surpassed $8.35 per token, an all-time high, before experiencing some price corrections.
Merger of BGB and BWB
As announced yesterday, the exchange merged Bitget Token (BGB) and Bitget Wallet Token (BWB), retaining only one token, BGB, for its exchange and wallet platform. The exchange stated that this decision was driven by strong community demand.
The Bitget Token was already performing strongly, reaching record values daily. The token gained more than 138 per cent in the last seven days, with monthly and yearly gains of 436 per cent and nearly 1,361 per cent, respectively.

Combining the two tokens has further increased demand for BGB. The latest rally also pushed BGB's market capitalization to nearly $11 billion, making it the 19th largest cryptocurrency.
The exchange explained the process of combining the two tokens. BWB tokens will be converted into BGB at a 0.08563 ratio, calculated using a 7-day average closing price of the BWB/USDT pair on Bitget. After the swap, all BWB tokens will be burned, and users will receive BGB in their accounts as an airdrop.
“By merging BGB and BWB, we are taking a major step toward building a unified and robust ecosystem that bridges on-chain and off-chain applications,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. “This move will enhance the utility of BGB and ensure that every holder benefits from the growth of the Bitget ecosystem.”
Bitget is one of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges, offering spot and derivatives trading. According to the exchange, its wallet platform has over 60 million users globally. Combined, the exchange and wallet platforms have over 100 million users.
“As the crypto market matures, only the most resilient assets with strong ecosystems and real-world utility can thrive through cycles,” Chen added. “BGB, ranked among the top 30 tokens, has established itself as a leading utility token with exceptional liquidity and a strong community. This merger will enhance BGB’s role within Bitget’s ecosystem and create new opportunities for exploring the decentralised world.”
Entered El Salvador
Bitget recently secured a Bitcoin Service Provider (BSP) license from the Central Reserve Bank of El Salvador. This license allows the exchange to offer fiat-to-Bitcoin exchanges, payment solutions, and custody services in the country.
The exchange is also awaiting approval for a digital asset service provider license from El Salvador’s National Commission of Digital Assets. This license would allow Bitget to offer other cryptocurrencies alongside Bitcoin.
Operating from its headquarters in Seychelles, Bitget is expanding its presence in the European Union. It holds licenses in Poland and Lithuania as a virtual asset service provider and is considering establishing a European base to comply with MiCA regulations.

Executive Interview | Dor Eligula | Co-Founder & Chief Business Officer, BridgeWise | FMLS:25
In this session, Jonathan Fine form Ultimate Group speaks with Dor Eligula from Bridgewise, a fast-growing AI-powered research and analytics firm supporting brokers and exchanges worldwide.
We start with Dor’s reaction to the Summit and then move to broker growth and the quick wins brokers often overlook. Dor shares where he sees “blue ocean” growth across Asian markets and how local client behaviour shapes demand.
We also discuss the rollout of AI across investment research. Dor gives real examples of how automation and human judgment meet at Bridgewise — including moments when analysts corrected AI output, and times when AI prevented an error.
We close with a practical question: how retail investors can actually use AI without falling into common traps.

Brendan Callan joined us fresh off the Summit’s most anticipated debate: “Is Prop Trading Good for the Industry?” Brendan argued against the motion — and the audience voted him the winner.
In this interview, Brendan explains the reasoning behind his position. He walks through the message he believes many firms avoid: that the current prop trading model is too dependent on fees, too loose on risk, and too confusing for retail audiences.
We discuss why he thinks the model grew fast, why it may run into walls, and what he believes is needed for a cleaner, more responsible version of prop trading.
This is Brendan at his frankest — sharp, grounded, and very clear about what changes are overdue.
