The updated PoR showcases Bitget's efforts in maintaining more than industry standard 100% reserves, which effectively guarantees that users' assets are safe. The platform is capable of covering user withdrawals, even if all user assets are withdrawn.
In addition to maintaining a higher than industry standard PoR, Bitget insures its users further with a $300M Protection Fund, now valued over $400 million according to its latest
protection fund report. This gives the platform an extra layer of resilience against cybersecurity threats. Users who have their accounts compromised in unfortunate incidents not attributed to their own actions or trading behavior can make a claim through the Bitget Protection Fund.
