🏆 I Came Looking for a Trade. I Found a New Way to See Markets. Late 2023. I came to Bitget looking for opportunities. At the time, I was exploring Web3, farming airdrops, playing Telegram games, learning crypto and using different exchanges. Bitget was simply one of them. I had no idea it would eventually become the platform where I would trade, learn, build and rethink how I see markets. It wasn’t one winning trade. It was everything between the trades. I became more involved through the Builder community @BitgetFans_ I started creating content, testing products, sharing feedback and learning from other traders. The more I contributed, the more curious I became. I stopped wanting to simply use products. I wanted to understand them and help others understand them too. That’s when Bitget became more than an exchange to me. 🌱 Then came rToken. Coming from crypto, I had never really explored stocks this way. Curiosity changed that. Before my first rToken trade, I completed the course because I wanted to understand what I was trading. My first rToken was $NBIS I wasn’t asking: “What’s pumping?” I was asking: “What do I actually believe in?” I started researching businesses, sectors, catalysts and fundamentals. I started thinking beyond the next candle. 📊 That shift changed how I approach investing. And that’s where UEX became interesting to me. Coming from crypto, exploring stocks and other real-world assets within an ecosystem I already understood felt natural. Crypto taught me to move fast. Stocks taught me to study businesses. #UEX showed me these worlds don’t have to stay separate. 🌍 The journey hasn’t been perfect. $AMD taught me one of my biggest lessons. I thought strong earnings would automatically mean a strong stock reaction. The market disagreed. I gave back almost all the profits I had built. It hurt, but it made me more focused on preparation, risk management and conviction rather than noise. Then came the experiences beyond trading. The AI Hackathon. The rToken course. Becoming a Community Product Officer. Submitting feedback. Creating educational content. Meeting Builders I had only known online. I started as someone looking for opportunities. Eventually, I found myself helping others discover and understand them too. That means more to me than any single trade. 🥹 Today, I don’t measure my @bitget journey only by P&L. I measure it by how I’ve changed: How I research. How I manage risk. How I see businesses. How I approach new markets. How I share what I learn. I’m no longer just watching the market. I’m exploring it. Learning from it. Building around it. That’s what UEX means to me: a bridge between the market I knew and the markets I’m still discovering. I came to Bitget looking for a chance. I became a Builder. A contributor. From under 100 followers to 1.5K+, the impact speaks for itself. 📈 And somewhere along the way… I became a fan. 💙 This is my #BitgetFanStory.

The Lazarus Group has been a serious reminder of how much the crypto industry has had to deal with when it comes to security. Looking back at major incidents involving platforms like Mt. Gox, Bitfinex, Binance, KuCoin, BitMart and Bybit, it’s clear that different incidents have affected different parts of the industry over the years. Now Bitget has also been hit. The platforms and circumstances may differ, but the reminder is the same: crypto security isn’t just an exchange problem. It affects the whole ecosystem and, most importantly, the people using it. What stands out to me is how much the industry has had to learn from these attacks. Protection funds, stronger security controls, on-chain monitoring and cooperation between platforms have all become increasingly important. The threat keeps evolving, so the industry has to keep evolving with it. This is bigger than one exchange and shows why security, transparency and cooperation across the crypto industry matter so much. That’s also why I appreciate seeing support from other exchanges during a difficult moment. Ben Zhou from Bybit and Richard Teng from Binance have publicly shown support for Bitget. I don’t think that removes users’ questions, and it shouldn’t. But seeing competitors stand together when the wider community is affected is something I value. I’ll keep following @bitget ’s official updates and encourage anyone with account-specific concerns to use Bitget’s official support channels.

The latest update adds clarity to Bitget’s response, but there are still important distinctions to keep in mind. The reported transfers have been revised to $387.5M, including Zcash and TRON assets. Bitget says this is a more complete accounting, not additional theft, and that the incident remains contained. The Recovery Bounty Program is now live, offering 5% for voluntarily freezing attacker funds and 5% for voluntary recovery. Exchanges, researchers, and on-chain investigators can find the official submission channels in Gracy’s update. One detail traders should watch closely: September 26, 04:00 UTC is the deadline for announcing the withdrawal plan, not a confirmed time for withdrawals to resume. Read the full update:⁠

I feel you. Just be a little patient with them too. Security threats keep evolving, and platforms have to evolve with them. If withdrawals are temporarily paused while security measures are being reviewed, I’d rather give them the time to handle it properly than rush things. The protection fund is also part of the response Bitget has communicated which means your funds are safe, so for now I’d stick with the official updates and let the team secure things properly.

The complete North Korean Lazarus group hacks against crypto bros and sis 😡 1️⃣ Bitget: $352M stolen early this morning, fully covered by the user protection fund, user's funds are safe. 2️⃣ Bybit: $1.46B stolen in Feb 2025, platform pledged 100% backing, only a small amount frozen 3️⃣ BitMart: $150M stolen in Dec 2021, pledged full compensationKuCoin: $280M stolen in Sep 2020, on-chain freezes + platform backstop, fully compensated 4️⃣ KuCoin: $280M stolen in Sep 2020, on-chain freezes + platform backstop, fully compensated 5️⃣ Binance: $41M stolen in May 2019, fully compensated by the SAFU fund 6️⃣ Coincheck: $534M stolen in 2018, platform fully compensated in yen 7️⃣ Bitfinex: $72M stolen in 2016, first a debt-to-equity swap, then users were gradually compensated 8️⃣ Mt.Gox: $460M stolen in 2014, bankruptcy liquidation, partial assets returned in batches over many years

Community support hits different when competitors stand together. What stood out to me after the @bitget incident wasn’t just the incident itself. It was seeing different parts of the crypto industry come together. @Bybit_Official CEO @benbybit said the Bybit team is on standby to help and reminded everyone that Bitget supported Bybit during its own incident. Bybit is also updating LazarusBounty to help trace the stolen funds. @binance Co-CEO @_RichardTeng also said Binance stands with Bitget and its users, with its security team sharing intelligence, tracing funds and supporting recovery efforts. @MEXC Co-CEO @usithetalk also reached out to the Bitget team and said MEXC is ready to support Bitget in any way they can, adding that the industry is stronger when it stands together. @CoinDCX co-founder @smtgpt said their team is on standby to help Bitget in any way possible, adding that the industry is stronger when we stand together. These exchanges compete with each other every day. But moments like this show that the crypto industry can still come together when there is a common problem. That sense of solidarity is what stood out to me most. At the same time, I understand why users still have questions. Those questions are valid, and the answers should come directly from Bitget’s official channels. I’m glad to see the community bonding together here. Competition is part of crypto. But when security is involved, supporting each other matters more.

Within 24 hours of the September 24 (UTC) incident: here is our further update as promised. Our investigation with Mandiant and SlowMist is ongoing — thorough forensic analysis takes more than 24 hours, and further findings will be shared as they become available. Three key updates below 👇 Revised figure: Onchain tracing has confirmed $387.5M transferred to attacker addresses — revised up from $351.6M. The higher figure reflects a more complete accounting of transfers during the incident, adding Zcash and TRON assets. To be clear: this is not additional theft. No further unauthorized transfers have occurred. The incident remains contained. Mandiant and SlowMist investigations are ongoing. Launched bounty program: Recovery Bounty Program is now live. 5% for voluntary freezing attacker funds, 5% for voluntary recovery. Freezes already secured count toward the bounty — thank you to every exchange, foundation and security team that moved quickly. We have published a real-time tracing dashboard, a submission portal, and the attacker's address API. You can also submit reports through Bybit's Lazarusbounty platform. Exchanges, security researchers, onchain investigators — we need you. Resuming withdrawals: We are currently working full steam ahead to prepare to resume withdrawals. The withdrawal plan will be announced by September 26th, 4:00AM UTC. To read more: bitget.com/support/articles/…

Not every milestone is about a new product. Sometimes, it’s about recognizing the people and institutions moving an entire industry forward. The first-ever Bitget INS Awards is bringing that spotlight to digital assets. Curious to see who gets recognized on October 5. Let’s see what’s ahead. #BitgetINSAwards

Trump 🤝 Xi Meanwhile, US stock traders watching $NVDA, $MU & $TSM after every headline about chip exports and rare earths. 😂 One handshake, three stocks, and suddenly every trader becomes a geopolitical analyst. The trade setup? Wait for the market to confirm the narrative. A trade truce could ease supply chain concerns, but changing expectations can also trigger sharp moves in AI and semiconductor stocks. I’m watching price action, volume, and key resistance levels before taking a position. No chasing the headline candle. If Trump & Xi move the market, which stock are you trading first? $NVDA | $MU | $TSM

The future of trading isn’t built around one market. This 5 October, we're bringing the industry together to celebrate the institutions and leaders shaping the digital asset ecosystem at the prestigious INS Awards! 8uilt for perfection: Where better markets begin. #BitgetINSAwards

The privacy narrative is getting bigger than anonymous payments. What interests me now is how privacy is moving into trading, cross-chain settlement and DeFi. $ZEC represents the established privacy-coin side, $NEAR is pushing confidential trading through NEAR Intents and private perps, while $ZAMA is bringing FHE into confidential DeFi. The catalysts are different, but the theme is the same: keeping financial activity private without giving up the functionality of public blockchains. Zama’s expansion to 16 confidential Morpho vaults and confidential swaps is another example of this shift toward usable privacy infrastructure. (Zama) If you’re trading the privacy sector, you can find $ZEC, $NEAR and $ZAMA on Bitget. I’m watching how price reacts to these fundamental catalysts rather than chasing the narrative blindly. If you traded any of these three, drop your entry, chart, PnL or setup below. Are you positioning around the privacy narrative, or waiting for technical confirmation?

🏁 Final KCGI 2026 US Stock Trade Journal The AI/chip trade came back strong. Nasdaq closed at a record 27,122.09, while the semiconductor index jumped 4.3% and $AMD crossed the $1T market-cap mark after a ~10% surge. (The Wall Street Journal) For my final journal, I’m watching two names: $NVDA: Entry 225.50–227.00 | TP 235 | SL 221 $AMD: Entry 605–612 | TP 645 | SL 588 The plan is not to chase the breakout. I want to see confirmation around the entry zones, manage risk if structure fails, and use the KCGI Mentor Signals for additional setups before closing my final journal. What also matters to me when trading these fast-moving AI names is execution. Bitget’s latest stock-perps liquidity data shows the platform ranked #1 on 32 of 36 monitored contracts at 5 bps, with $11.60M aggregate depth versus $3.29M for Binance, $1.05M for OKX and $0.68M for Bybit. For $AMD specifically, Bitget recorded $461,908 of 5 bps depth in its July monitoring window. (Bitget) That’s why I pay attention to the order book, not just headline volume. Deeper liquidity can matter when volatility picks up and position size increases. Final KCGI journal. Final setups. Same rule I’ve followed throughout: trade after confirmation, not prediction. How are you positioning for the next $AMD or $NVDA move? I’m trading these US stock perps on Bitget mainly for the deeper order-book liquidity, which matters when I’m entering or exiting larger positions during fast moves.

Rank #10 in KCGI 2026 Spot Stocks, but the final push starts now. 🏆 The Global Fans Spirit is still fighting for a higher position, and with KCGI ending tomorrow, I’m focused on execution rather than chasing trades. Today’s watchlist includes $GNRC, $AMZN, $INTC, $AMD, $NVDA, $MRVL, $CIEN and $SMCI, with data center power demand, AI infrastructure and tokenized stocks creating interesting market themes. My plan is to wait for confirmation, watch volume and structure, and record my final KCGI trade journals to track what worked and what needs improvement. I use Bitget for US stock trading because I can explore stock products alongside crypto in one ecosystem, access eligible markets beyond traditional trading hours, and trade themed stocks through a unified experience. I’ll also be reviewing the KCGI mentor signals for potential setups and learning from their market insights before entering any position. Every trade is part of the process, but the goal is to finish strong with the Global Fans Spirit. Rank #10 is where we stand. The finish line is tomorrow. Let’s push with discipline. 📊 Today’s US stock opportunities: bitget.com/news/detail/12560… 🎯 KCGI Mentor Signals: t.me/+z9IL8fEgqb81ZGVl #KCGI2026 #USStocks
