- BGB sees improved liquidity and compliance.
Kraken is set to list BGB, Bitget’s native utility token, on January 30, enhancing its trading accessibility on the U.S.-regulated platform.
The listing potentially boosts BGB’s market presence by increasing liquidity and compliance, appealing to global traders. Increased trading activity may affect BGB’s valuation and visibility among institutional investors.
The BGB token receives newfound attention following its listing on Kraken, set to open for trading on January 30, 2026, 15:00 UTC. This marks a significant move for the token, enhancing its global accessibility.
Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget, announced the listing of BGB on Twitter. The token is the native utility for Morph Network and Bitget Wallet, supporting gas fees, governance, and transaction settlement.
The listing is anticipated to significantly impact the BGB’s liquidity and trading volume. Institutional and retail users in Europe and the U.S. gain regulated access, boosting BGB’s market position. Kraken, as a U.S.-regulated exchange, enhances these prospects.
The move will potentially create ripple effects across markets as U.S.-regulated exchanges provide increased transparency and compliance. This development aligns with BGB’s ambitious expansion strategy.
Colin Goltra, CEO of Morph, said, “This marks BGB’s first listing on a U.S.-regulated exchange. Listing on Kraken not only provides institutional and retail users in Europe and the U.S. with a direct, transparent channel to trade BGB, but also significantly enhances BGB’s liquidity and regulatory compliance.”[source]
Future prospects for BGB include further listings on additional exchanges, as hinted by Gracy Chen. Speculation grows over potential trading pairs like BGB/USD and BGB/BTC.
The BGB token supply saw an unlock of 140.56 million tokens, valued at approximately $528 million. These shifts align with Bitget’s strategy, aiming for long-term gains and sustainable growth through timely buybacks and quarterly burns.
