Bitget's combined trading volume across six categories reached about $1.86 trillion in the third quarter of 2026, spanning crypto trading and traditional financial products. Crypto derivatives volume was $409.19 billion in September, up 31.5% from July to September. That figure covers September, not the full quarter. Contracts for difference, or CFDs, accounted for $376.32 billion of Q3 volume.

Bitget described transfers from its hot wallets on Sept. 24 as unauthorized.
