October 28, 2024 — Bitget, one of the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchanges, announced the appointment of former Binance executive Min Lin as its new Chief Business Officer. Lin, who previously served as Regional Vice President for Latin America at Binance, will spearhead Bitget's growth initiatives in key markets, particularly in Latin America.
Lin brings extensive experience in both
traditional finance and the digital asset sector. Before joining Binance in

Division, giving him a solid foundation in global finance. His role at Binance
saw him securing licensing agreements, developing relationships with
regulators, and driving the company’s strategic expansion.
At Bitget, Lin is expected to play a
pivotal role in the company’s mission to enhance its product offerings and
expand its market presence, particularly in emerging regions. “Min’s expertise
will be crucial in our mission to expand and innovate," said Gracy Chen,
CEO of Bitget. “His track record aligns perfectly with our strategic goals,
especially in Latin America, where we’ve seen a 98% increase in active users
this year."
Bitget, which is currently among the
top 10 crypto exchanges globally, has experienced rapid growth in 2024. The
exchange now serves over 45 million users across 150 countries. With Lin at the
helm of business development, Bitget aims to accelerate its regional growth and
solidify its position in the competitive crypto landscape.
Lin expressed excitement about the new
role, stating, “Bitget’s remarkable growth and commitment to innovation drew me
to this opportunity. I look forward to helping drive its expansion into new
markets and promoting the broader acceptance of blockchain technology.”
The appointment marks an important step
in Bitget’s strategy to scale its operations and increase market share,
particularly in Latin America, a key area of focus for future growth.
