Considering the circumstances that led to its exit earlier this year, Bitget revealed firm resolute to play by the newly established local laws. For context, the exchange announced the withdrawal of its services in a May press release: “As you may be aware, recent regulatory changes by the FCA require crypto asset providers to implement additional measures. We are hard at work to finalize approval of the implemented measures. Until we do, we will temporarily restrict the onboarding of new users in the UK.”
Bitget Returns to the UK with Improved Offers

One upgraded feature it aims to offer is the support of diverse token options, which allows users to trade multiple digital assets conveniently.
