Bitget Wallet Launches BGB Onchain Staking on Morph, Expanding BGB Utility
February 17 2025 - 11:33PM
Bitget Wallet, a leading Web3 non-custodial wallet, is expanding
the utility of its native token, Bitget Token (BGB), alongside the
launch of a limited-time BGB onchain staking program on Morph
chain. BGB is evolving into a bridge connecting onchain ecosystems
and real-world applications. The onchain staking program offers
higher returns while enhancing fund autonomy and privacy, providing
users with greater security compared to centralized options.
The first BGB onchain staking program will run from February 14,
2025, 20:00 (UTC) to February 21, 2025, 20:00 (UTC) with a staking
pool capped at 350,000 BGB. Users can stake their tokens through
Bitget Wallet's BGB Center or Bitget Exchange's Earn section for a
90-day period and earn 5% APY fixed returns along with access to
20,000 Morph Points. For every 15 BGB staked, users will receive 1
Morph Point, which can be redeemed for future Morph tokens and
other rewards.
BGB's expanding utility is central to Bitget Wallet's long-term
vision, with applications in decentralized trading, staking, and
payments driving its growth. As a multi-chain gas token within
Bitget Wallet, BGB eliminates the need to manage multiple gas
tokens across different blockchains, simplifying onchain
interactions and ensuring smoother user experiences. Staking BGB
onchain allows users to earn rewards and qualify for project
airdrops, while VIP holders can access exclusive benefits,
including Bitget Wallet Card cashback and other premium services
through Bitget Wallet's growing PayFi ecosystem. These features
bridge the gap between DeFi returns and real-world spending
opportunities.
BGB's market momentum highlights its growing demand and
deflationary design. Over the past two months, BGB's price has
surged over 320%, driven by increased utility and token burn.
Starting in 2025, Bitget will implement quarterly token buybacks
and burns to reduce the token's circulating supply and enhance
token value. By encouraging long-term holding, this strategy aims
to maintain steady growth and strengthen BGB's role within Bitget's
ecosystem.
"BGB's rapid growth reflects its key role in the Web3
ecosystem," said Alvin Kan, COO of Bitget Wallet. "As we continue
expanding BGB's utilities in staking, payments, and decentralized
finance, we are committed to creating long-term value and a
dynamic, sustainable community." To support community
participation, Bitget Wallet will host the BGB Builders Night
during the Hong Kong Consensus event, where discussions will focus
on BGB's future.
