Bitget has announced its exit from the Japanese market, with forced closure of all remaining positions after December 31, 2026. The exchange was flagged by Japan’s Financial Services Agency in November 2024 for operating illegally as an unregistered platform. The timeline includes blocking new registrations on August 3, 2026, switching accounts to sell-only mode on November 1, 2026, and forced liquidation of all remaining positions on December 31, 2026. Japan’s regulator also targeted Bybit, KuCoin, and MEXC for the same reasons.
