Bitget Protection Fund Replenished to $300M+
Since 2022, Bitget has maintained a dedicated Protection Fund as an additional layer of protection for users' assets.
The fund was initially established at 5,500 BTC, and it has been regularly monitored and disclosed.
Following the security incident on September 24, Bitget designated the Protection Fund to cover the impact of the incident.
The estimated affected amount was $388M, while user account balances remained accurate and unaffected.
On September 28, we committed to replenishing the Protection Fund to at least $300M within one week.
Today, the Protection Fund has been replenished to $309M.
The Protection Fund is designed to be on-chain, transparent and traceable.

[UPDATE - WITHDRAWAL PLAN]
Following the security incident identified on September 24, Bitget will begin resuming withdrawals in orderly phases.
The vulnerability involved in the incident has been identified and remediated.
Bitget's security and technical teams have since been conducting additional validation and security checks across the withdrawal infrastructure, while independent cybersecurity experts Mandiant and SlowMist continue to support the investigation.
The temporary withdrawal pause remains a security measure and is not related to the availability of user assets.
User account balances remain unaffected, and Bitget's Protection Fund covers the financial impact of this platform-wide incident.
Withdrawals will resume in an orderly manner once these security checks are completed.
The current withdrawal resumption schedule is as follows:
September 28, 10:00 AM (CET): BTC (Bitcoin Network)
September 29, 10:00 AM (CET): ETH (Ethereum, BSC, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism)
September 30, 10:00 AM (CET): USDT (Ethereum, BSC, Solana, Tron)
October 2, 10:00 AM (CET): Other Tokens / Fiat / P2P
Our objective is to restore withdrawal services across all supported assets and networks as quickly and safely as possible.
The incident remains contained, and no further unauthorized transfers are possible.
User funds are unaffected throughout this process. Trading and deposits continue to operate.
Users do not need to take any action ahead of the rollout.
Withdrawal availability will be reflected directly on Bitget platform.
Users are kindly advised to follow Bitget's official channels for updates.
[𝗜𝗠𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗔𝗡𝗧 𝗨𝗣𝗗𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗦]
The withdrawal plan will be announced by September 26th, 6:00 AM CET.
We appreciate your patience on this matter.
Based on the latest onchain tracing and classification of transactions, assets equivalent to approximately $387.5 million were transferred to attacker-controlled addresses across multiple networks. The revised figure reflects a more complete accounting of transfers that occurred during the incident, adding affected assets on Zcash and TRON that were not included in the initial estimate. It does not reflect further unauthorized transfers.
The incident remains contained and no further unauthorized transfers are possible.
The primary attacker-controlled receiving addresses identified to date are:
EVM: 0x770b10b273fc44fe9197d6bf20f145c2e98463ee
XRP: rwNhefsz1UQEusxhCvHip3RANinWi4CTck
ZEC: t1WgMdtND8NF7NDUuYmq8MpMj1NTCXkMDVG
TRON: TBWNguTTgezw9dVorX441C6nDrZpRxYwKD
Our investigation and tracing efforts remain ongoing.
Withdrawals remain temporarily paused while additional security checks and remediation are underway.
Bitget will continue to provide verified updates on the investigation, asset recovery, withdrawal restoration and the User Protection Fund through its official channels.
