Bitcoin Could Swing 30% Either Way In The Next Two Months | Gracy Chen

Bitget CEO Gracy Chen walks through the first hours of the $388 million Bitget hack, how attackers got in through a third-party security product, and how the exchange covered user losses. Gracy explains how the attack unfolded overnight, why it was not a private key or cold wallet compromise, and how Bitget's Protection Fund absorbed the loss and was replenished. She and Scott Melker also discuss nation-state hackers and industry coordination, rebuilding trust, a crypto market she calls a 'monkey market', tokenized stocks and AI-powered trading, Bitget's universal exchange vision and its plans for the U.S. In this episode:00:00 Intro: inside Bitget's $388M hack01:30 The first hours: detection, response and live-streaming04:30 What the attack was and what it wasn't07:30 Third-party vendor risk and new safeguards09:30 How the Protection Fund covered user losses13:00 Lazarus, nation-state hackers and industry coordination20:00 Rebuilding trust after the hack23:00 Crypto volumes since 10/10 and a 'monkey market' for Bitcoin28:00 Tokenization, AI trading and the universal exchange32:30 Bitget's plans for the U.S. and final thoughts Gracy Chen on X: https://x.com/GracyBitgetBitget on X: https://x.com/bitget Watch this episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3gg9r8ptp8 If you enjoyed this episode, follow the show and leave a rating.
