8 Years, 100 Million Users: Experiencing Everyday Finance, Onchain

Eight years ago, Bitget Wallet was a place to trade. A tool built for crypto natives who lived onchain and wanted somewhere to swap tokens. Today, 100 million users later, it's something we barely could have described back then. People save, grow and spend from it in more than 50 markets, across borders, without asking a bank for permission. Eight years, 100 million of you, and a product that grew into something far bigger than a trading app. That's the whole idea behind Bitget Wallet's goal: Bringing you everyday finance, onchain.

The wallet itself tells the story of how crypto grew up. It started as a trading tool, somewhere to swap tokens and watch charts. Then it became a place to hold money, as stablecoins turned into real digital dollars people wanted to keep. Now it's where they spend that money too. What changed over eight years isn't just the product, it's what a crypto wallet could be.

For generations, keeping your money in dollars meant having the right passport, bank, or connections. Now, a parallel dollar economy exists, and anyone with a phone can hold and earn on digital dollars, no bank account or credit history required. We've built the account layer on top of those rails and removed the financial barriers that previously existed. Now anyone can save in USDT or USDC and earn 3 to 10% APY in real time, with no lock-up and no minimum, all from one self-custodial account where no intermediary ever holds your money and your keys stay yours.

Then came the rise of crypto payments. The global system was built for banks to move money between banks, and everyone else pays for it in high fees and slow settlement that stops at the border. Bitget Wallet routes around it, enabling transfers from the blockchain to cards, QR codes, and bank transfers. It's the only self-custodial wallet with a full payment stack in one account.

The Bitget Wallet Card is a zero-fee Visa and Mastercard card, with more than 150,000 issued across 50 markets and spendable at over 150 million merchants. Global card spending hit 31 million dollars in the first half of 2026, up 191% from the half before. Sending money is just as easy: a stablecoin transfer costs cents and settles in seconds, where banks take days and charge 5 to 8%.

Underneath it all is the Onchain Payments Matrix, our infrastructure linking blockchains, card networks, banks, and merchants into one system. Built with partners including Visa, Mastercard, Tether, and Circle, it has moved more than 177 billion dollars in stablecoin volume, so you simply tap, scan, or transfer without thinking about the rails.

We'd rather mark this with you than on our own.
