Bitget Expands KCGI Beyond Crypto with $3 Million Trading Competition

Bitget has expanded its King's Cup Global Invitational (KCGI) trading competition to go beyond cryptocurrency, offering up to $3 million in prizes. For the first time, traders can compete across 600+ crypto futures pairs, traditional finance contracts for stocks and commodities, tokenized U.S. stocks, and other markets on one platform.

The competition runs from September 9-22, with results announced on September 23-24. The biggest prize is $1 million for the top teams based on profit-and-loss (PnL) performance in the UEX Arena.

Bitget CEO Gracy Chen said the move reflects how crypto and traditional financial markets are increasingly coming together. 'The new format brings traditional finance and crypto closer together while keeping the competitive spirit that KCGI is known for,' she added.
