Bitget Hit by $351.6M Hot-Wallet Attack Despite Nearly 3-Hour Transfer Window
Bitget said it detected unauthorized transfers from its hot and warm wallets on September 24, 2026, totaling about $351.6 million, and later said its protection fund can cover the losses. Withdrawals were suspended during a security review, while deposits and trading continued and cold wallets were described as secure.
What this rests on
What it means
Each sentence links inside to the piece that supports it.
Bitget users and traders are the main group noticing this now, because withdrawals were suspended while deposits and trading stayed open. The exchange also said user assets were unaffected, so the immediate effect is on access to withdrawals rather than on normal account balances.
