The Bitget exchange’s native BGB token has received a major overhaul as the platform has announced the updated document’s release. A new lineup of features and internal economy changes have been outlined in the new BGB white paper, highlighting increased value for users of the exchange and holders of the token.
The BGB token – Bitget’s native utility asset – has been firmly rooted in Coingecko’s CEX list on line number 9 for some time, highlighting the popularity of the token and giving a reason for Bitget to start enhancing value. The new white paper for the BGB token stresses the given factor, outlining new features that mean to propel the asset into Web3 through deeper integration into the growingly next-gen platform’s broad lineup of services.
Among the features Bitget has injected into the BGB token are increased utility as part of the Launchpad and Launchpool services, giving holders more opportunities for voting on promising projects and receiving access to listings. Holders can also expect to partake in the newly announced BGB lottery and take advantage of the trial fund used for advancing futures trading. Such an update seriously enhanced BGB’s utility within the platform and gives holders the opportunity to play a more active role in the platform’s development as a whole.
The white paper also reveals new details regarding internal economy changes. The BGB token will be granted its own deflationary mechanism, which will be enacted through a burn feature. Considering that the total supply of BGB is limited to 2 billion tokens and around 1.4 billion are currently in circulation, ensuring price stability is an important factor for the Bitget exchange to consider. The launch of the burn mechanism is an expected feature in light of the 500% growth the BGB token has experienced in terms of trading volume in February of 2023, when it achieved an all-time high of $0.51.
Bitget is placing serious weight on the utility of its native BGB token, expecting to attract more users through expanded functionality. The ability for users to extract benefits from ownership greatly improves the asset’s attractiveness and allows them to explore the many products Bitget has to offer.
