Why Transparency in Crypto Matters

Trust is the foundation of any crypto exchange. With billions in user funds at stake, exchanges must be open about their financial health, security measures and overall operations. Without transparency, users are left in the dark, and we have seen how that can lead to uncertainty, loss of confidence and even market collapses. Regular transparency reports are essential, they allow users to verify whether an exchange is stable and reliable rather than just taking its word for it.

Bitget latest report gives insight into how the platform has evolved over the past year. In 2024, its user base grew significantly, increasing from 20 million to 100 million. Spot trading volume rose from 160 billion in Q1 to 600 billion in Q4, while derivatives trading also expanded, making it one of the largest players in the space.

BGB, the platform's native token, saw major changes, including a 40 percent supply cut in December and plans for quarterly token burns in 2025. The exchange also listed over 186 new tokens and expanded its proof of reserves to 612 million, indicating strong liquidity.

Exchanges can learn from this transparency by regularly publishing reports on trading volumes, reserves, and tokenomics changes. Adding features like token burns, liquidity checks, and updated asset lists will boost trust and loyalty. As the industry grows, transparency will be key to gaining and maintaining user confidence.
