⚠️ Warning
[Exchange Notice] Bitget — Withdrawal Suspension and Asset Protection Following Hacking Incident
We would like to inform you of the details confirmed regarding the Bitget exchange.
■ Confirmed Details
On September 24, 2026, at 18:31 (UTC), an abnormal fund transfer of approximately US$351.6 million was detected in some of Bitget's wallet layers. CEO Gracy Chen made an official announcement regarding this on the night of September 24 (around 21:30 UTC). The incident, which occurred due to a breach in the backend system, is highly likely backed by North Korea, and withdrawal services have been temporarily suspended for security checks. Bitget plans to release an official incident investigation report within 24 hours of the initial announcement, during September 25, and will sequentially resume withdrawals after the system recovery is complete.
■ Impact on Usage
- Cold wallets and user deposits are safe, and customer assets are 100% protected through the US$464 million user protection fund, so please log in to check your account balance.
- Currently, deposit and trading services are operating normally, but withdrawals are unavailable until the security review is completed, so you must wait until a resumption announcement is made.
- Domestic exchanges are also aware of this incident, so please be cautious when transferring external assets to Bitget or conducting linked transactions for the time being.
