Bitget says some users will lose services in one-off exercise
The exchange says affected customers will be told by email and in-app message about deadlines and withdrawals, and that funds stay safe while the platform keeps running.
Why it matters: The change comes weeks after Bitget suspended withdrawals over a breach put at about $388m, so affected users need to watch for official notices on deadlines and withdrawals.
