Bitget's Multi-Asset KCGI Draws Record 83,000 Traders
Bitget, the world's largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has concluded its 2026 King's Cup Global Invitational (KCGI) with a record-breaking number of participants. The competition took place from September 9 to 22 and attracted more than 83,000 traders across 320 teams.
This year's KCGI marked the first time the event expanded beyond crypto to include traditional finance (TradFi) perpetuals and tokenized U.S. stocks in a multi-asset arena. The total promotion pool reached up to 3 million USDT.
Within the UEX Arena team battle, traders competed across various markets, including Crypto Futures, TradFi Perps covering stocks, commodities, and precious metals, and rToken spot markets for tokenized US equities. Team PnL determined performance on the overall UEX Arena leaderboard.
The expansion of KCGI to a multi-asset arena reflected Bitget's shift towards providing traders with access to various asset classes through its Universal Exchange model. CEO Gracy Chen stated, 'KCGI has always been where traders come to prove themselves, but this year we gave them a much bigger arena.'
