Bitget Extends Institutional Trading Capabilities with Fireblocks Off Exchange


Victoria, Seychelles, June 17, 2026 — Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), today announced an integration with Fireblocks, the enterprise platform securing more than $14 trillion in digital asset transactions. By leveraging Fireblocks Off Exchange, institutions can now trade on Bitget while retaining full control of their assets on-chain, placing Bitget among a select group of exchanges offering off-exchange settlement at institutional scale.
The integration arrives at a pivotal point for institutional participation in digital asset markets. Regulatory clarity is advancing across major jurisdictions, allocations to digital assets from asset managers, hedge funds, and corporate treasuries are growing, and the infrastructure supporting institutional-grade activity has matured significantly in recent years.
Against this backdrop, managing counterparty risk remains one of the most consequential operational decisions an institution can make.
Fireblocks Off Exchange enables institutional traders to execute trades on Bitget directly from an MPC-based shared wallet, without transferring assets onto the exchange. Client funds are held in Collateral Vault Accounts (CVAs) controlled by the trader, mitigating exchange counterparty risk while maintaining full access to Bitget’s liquidity and execution environment.
Through this structure, institutions can deploy capital and begin trading immediately after funding their CVA, with real-time on-chain settlement, removing the need for manual reconciliation or operational delays. At the same time, Bitget is able to verify that accounts are fully collateralized through on-chain visibility, without ever taking custody of client assets.
“For institutions, how capital is deployed matters as much as where it is deployed,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. “Using Fireblocks Off Exchange allows institutions to access Bitget’s liquidity while keeping assets under their own control. It reduces friction around custody and risk, while maintaining the speed required for active trading.”
The integration strengthens Bitget’s institutional offering under the UEX framework, where execution, capital management, and risk controls are brought into a single operating environment. As institutions expand activity across crypto and tokenized markets, the ability to deploy capital without moving assets between venues is becoming increasingly important.
“The separation of custody and execution is becoming the baseline expectation for institutional participation in digital asset markets,” said Richard Astle, VP Head of Network at Fireblocks. “By enabling trading from on-chain collateral, Bitget is extending a structure that improves transparency and mitigates counterparty exposure without disrupting trading workflows.”
By leveraging Fireblocks’ infrastructure within Bitget’s execution environment, the integration introduces a more flexible model for institutional participation, where capital efficiency, transparency, and asset control are maintained without compromising trading performance.
