Bitget Wallet introduced its next-generation API Platform on May 14, 2026, according to an official announcement, aiming to strengthen decentralized trading infrastructure and support developers building Web3 applications. The platform is already processing more than $20 million in cumulative daily trading volume ahead of its full public rollout. The launch represents an expansion of Bitget Wallet’s role in decentralized finance infrastructure and cross-chain blockchain services.
Platform Features and Technical Upgrades
The API Platform introduces several technical enhancements, including support for Hypercore and HyperEVM environments, improved cross-chain APIs, enhanced broadcast infrastructure, faster chain query capabilities, and gas sponsorship functionality. According to the company, developers can apply for API access at no cost as part of the platform’s ecosystem expansion.
The architecture focuses on improving transaction execution speed, interoperability, and accessibility across different blockchain environments. By integrating Hypercore and HyperEVM system support, the platform aims to provide broader compatibility for developers building applications on emerging decentralized blockchain networks.
Gas Sponsorship and Cross-Chain Functionality
One of the platform’s notable features is its gas sponsorship functionality, designed to simplify the user experience by reducing transaction fee complexities associated with blockchain interactions. The feature is intended to lower onboarding barriers for both users and application builders by minimizing the need for direct gas fee management.
The cross-chain API infrastructure allows decentralized applications to move assets and exchange information more efficiently between separate blockchain ecosystems. This functionality is expected to improve interoperability within the Web3 environment while supporting more connected decentralized financial services.
Bitget Wallet also highlighted improvements in transaction broadcast infrastructure and chain query speed as core elements of the upgrade. Faster query systems and more advanced broadcasting capabilities are intended to reduce transaction confirmation delays while improving the overall responsiveness of decentralized applications.
Market Context
As Web3 applications experience increased user activity and higher trading volumes, demand for scalable backend infrastructure has accelerated across the blockchain industry. Bitget Wallet’s expansion into API infrastructure reflects a broader industry trend in which wallet providers, exchanges, and blockchain firms are competing to become foundational infrastructure providers for decentralized ecosystems.
