BGB price jumped more than 4% following the listing news, with the utility token’s value reaching an intraday high of $0.46. This isn’t far from the all-time high for BGB/USD, which was $0.51 reached in February this year.

Bitget launched an updated version of its token in July 2021. It is used as a form of payment in the exchange platform’s ecosystem, and can be staked or for discounts on trading fees.
