Bitget Dominates Crypto Derivatives Liquidity with ETH and BTC Rankings
Bitget has solidified its position as one of the leading exchanges for Ethereum (ETH) and Bitcoin (BTC) derivatives liquidity in H1 2026. According to the CoinGlass 2026 Semi-Annual Cryptocurrency Derivatives Market Report, Bitget ranked second in ETH liquidity depth with $81.37 million in order-book depth within ±1% of the mid-price.
This represents a 21.4% share among listed venues and demonstrates the exchange's growing role in supporting deep execution across major crypto assets. For BTC, Bitget recorded $71.70 million in order-book depth within ±1%, ranking fourth among listed venues with a 13.4% share.
The report highlights that total crypto derivatives volume was down 15.7% year over year in H1 2026, while average daily open interest declined by 10.0%. This suggests that trading activity cooled faster than outstanding risk exposure, making liquidity depth and execution quality more important for market participants.
Bitget's CEO, Gracy Chen, noted that 'the derivatives markets remain sensitive to volatility even when overall trading activity moderates.' In this environment, liquidity depth has become a core measure of exchange's trust and performance.
