KEY POINTS
- Bitget says BTC withdrawals are open as of its latest announcement.
- ETH withdrawals are scheduled to restart on September 29, 2026, per the exchange.
- USDT restart timing remains unconfirmed; do not treat it as live until Bitget publishes a separate notice.
Bitget says BTC withdrawals are open again
Bitget’s stated position is that Bitcoin withdrawals have resumed, making BTC the first major asset to come back online after the exchange suspended withdrawals following a reported exploit. The exchange’s framing of the restart as asset by asset is a meaningful distinction: this is not a platform-wide green light. As previously reported, Bitget resumed BTC withdrawals after a reported $388M exploit that prompted the initial suspension. For related coverage, see $58.42B Net Treasury Cash Flow on Sept. 30.
Users holding ETH, USDT, or other tokens cannot assume their assets are available simply because BTC is. Before acting on any assumed availability, BTC users should verify their withdrawal queue status directly on Bitget’s platform, confirm network confirmation requirements are within expected ranges, and check whether any account-level withdrawal limits remain in effect.

What BTC users can verify before withdrawing
Check Bitget’s official announcements page for asset-specific notices, confirm the withdrawal destination address on-chain using a Bitcoin block explorer such as Mempool.space, and review current network fee estimates before submitting. A live withdrawal status does not guarantee immediate processing if on-chain congestion is elevated. For related coverage, see REX Shares and Osprey Update SEI Staked ETF Filing.
ETH is scheduled for September 29 as the next withdrawal step
Bitget has indicated that Ethereum withdrawals are scheduled to restart on September 29, 2026. That is a timetable, not a confirmation that withdrawals are already active. A scheduled date can shift if the exchange encounters technical issues or determines additional security checks are needed.
Scheduled versus completed withdrawal availability
The distinction between a planned restart and live availability is the operative one. Readers expecting to move ETH on or after September 29 should treat Bitget’s withdrawal status page as the authoritative signal, not the announced schedule alone. The THORChain decision not to block movements tied to the Bitget exploit is a reminder that the broader resolution of this incident is still unfolding; monitoring official exchange communications directly remains the safest approach.
For on-chain verification once ETH withdrawals resume, users can confirm outgoing transactions on Etherscan using the destination wallet address before considering a transfer complete.
Why users should check each asset’s withdrawal status separately
The available headline is truncated after referencing USDT, cutting off before a date or status is stated. No confirmed USDT withdrawal restart date can be reported based on current evidence, and publishing a speculative date could lead users to initiate failed withdrawals.
Questions to check for BTC, ETH, and USDT individually
For each asset, confirm: Is the withdrawal toggle active in your account dashboard? Has Bitget published a specific asset-level notice? Are there remaining hold periods or verification steps required? BTC, ETH, and USDT each carry separate liquidity profiles and settlement processes, giving Bitget reason to sequence availability rather than reopening everything simultaneously.
The confirmed picture based on available evidence: BTC is open per the exchange’s statement; ETH is targeted for September 29; USDT and any remaining assets are pending further notice from Bitget. Until the exchange publishes a complete schedule, treat each asset’s status as independent.
