Innovative product and trading solution offering

BIT offers a series of institutional and retail-friendly features, including portfolio margin, which rewards hedgers by providing a more significant margin benefit to their well-maintained low-risk portfolios and enables block trading on all products through Paradigm and ACCX.
Unified Margin is an upgraded trading and risk management system adopting a single account solution to optimally trade spot, margin, perpetual, futures, and options without the need to transfer funds between multiple accounts.
Top Security and Risk Management
BIT provides institutional-grade security safeguarded by Cactus Custody (A Qualified Custodian).
The exchange also applies an incremental liquidation mechanism to provide additional user protection during extreme market conditions. This robust risk management system was built by a world-class team of derivatives, risk management, and technical professionals.
Upon launch, the BIT Insurance Fund had over 200 BTC (one of the largest among new exchanges) to mitigate socialized losses, better protecting your investment.
Advanced Technology
