VICTORIA, Seychelles, March 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bitget, the world's largest Universal Exchange (UEX), today announced a strategic partnership with B2C2, a global leader in institutional digital asset trading. The collaboration brings B2C2's deep, reliable liquidity and execution capabilities to Bitget's institutional ecosystem.

B2C2, founded in 2015 and majority-owned by SBI, the Japanese financial group, is recognised globally for pioneering institutional digital asset market-making and OTC electronic trading.

The company offers consistent liquidity provision with competitive bid-ask spreads, robust credit offerings to eligible counterparties for improved capital utilisation, and efficient settlement. It serves hedge funds, asset managers, brokers, exchanges, and traditional financial institutions active in digital asset markets.

Through the partnership, Bitget is integrating B2C2 as a liquidity provider for access to tighter spreads and more consistent fill quality across varying market conditions.

“For institutional traders, execution quality and reliable liquidity are foundational to performance,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. “Working with B2C2 strengthens the liquidity layer of the platform, which is essential for supporting institutional participation and improving execution quality across markets. It’s a step toward making the UEX model function at a real institutional scale.”

"This partnership expands market access for both firms," said Thomas Restout, Group CEO at B2C2. "We're delighted to work with Bitget — one of the leading global exchanges — to bring deeper, more reliable markets to their institutional clients across spot and derivatives."

The partnership marks the latest step in Bitget's push to build institutional-grade infrastructure and trading efficiency across its platform, and in B2C2's continued expansion of its liquidity network to leading global venues.
