According to reports from Bitget, the world's largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has introduced a comprehensive Market Integrity and Token Accountability Framework aimed at strengthening oversight across listed assets, project teams, and market makers. The framework creates clearer accountability for listed projects and market makers, ensuring they operate responsibly, cooperate during risk reviews, and avoid conduct that could mislead users or disrupt market fairness. As reported by Bitget, the framework is specifically designed to limit the ability of project teams to use exchange listings as exit liquidity, while giving users clearer risk indicators when listed assets show signs of deterioration. The measures reflect growing pressure on exchanges to improve surveillance and enforce market standards as token listings proliferate, with Bitget aiming to protect users, reduce the chance of sudden market disruptions, and demonstrate regulatory-minded operations to partners and authorities.
Under the new framework, newly listed projects remain subject to strict contractual rules that prohibit price manipulation, artificial volatility, abusive liquidity behavior, and other actions that may harm market fairness. As reported by Bitget, where violations are identified, action may be taken under applicable platform rules, legal agreements, and relevant laws, including applying or maintaining Special Treatment labels, issuing high-risk warnings, limiting token visibility, suspending deposits or withdrawals, freezing accounts linked to suspected manipulation, pausing trading pairs, revoking market-maker status, banning related projects, or proceeding with delisting actions. The framework emphasizes that project teams and market makers are expected to cooperate with risk reviews and maintain responsible market behavior after listing. The measures aim to strengthen post-listing monitoring, speed up escalation when suspicious trading or wallet behavior appears, and create clearer accountability for projects and market makers operating on the platform.
According to the announcement, spot trading risk analysis is being strengthened through a more structured asset review system that evaluates listed tokens using several key indicators: on-chain activity, technical fundamentals, community sentiment, and liquidity conditions. The system creates a scoring system to support continuous post-listing monitoring, with each indicator contributing to the overall assessment. As reported by Bitget, the system is designed to detect issues such as suspicious wallet activity, high token concentration among holders, weak liquidity, order-book imbalance, negative market sentiment, and sudden declines in project health. The model is designed to help identify contract-level concerns, abnormal wallet behavior, high holder concentration, weak liquidity, order-book imbalance, negative sentiment, and sudden deterioration in asset health. The model will support continuous post-listing monitoring by recalculating scores daily and triggering alerts when key risk indicators deteriorate, ensuring that abnormal activity on listed assets will now trigger faster escalation procedures involving project teams, market makers, wallet flow analysis, and trading behavior checks.
As reported by Bitget, when abnormal activity is detected, reviews will be prioritized for faster escalation across project teams, market makers, wallet flows, and trading behavior. The framework includes provisions to pause promotional campaigns for tokens under review, particularly when continued marketing could expose users to higher risks. The objective is to ensure that warnings and platform-side actions appear earlier, especially when a listed asset shows signs of deterioration or potential misconduct. The system is designed to create clearer accountability for listed projects and their associated market makers through consistent enforcement procedures, with the goal of issuing warnings and taking action sooner whenever a token shows signs of misconduct or weakening market conditions. The framework is designed to strengthen enforcement consistency while improving the visibility of risk signals for users trading newly listed or highly volatile assets.
Following internal investigation, suspected cases involving insider dumping, wash trading, market-maker misconduct, or other forms of market manipulation may be reported to relevant regulators in jurisdictions where Bitget operates or is registered. According to the framework, the system also supports wider industry coordination among major exchanges to share verified market-abuse cases and reduce repeat misconduct across platforms. Bitget stated that it plans to continue improving its asset review standards, post-listing monitoring systems, and enforcement procedures to strengthen trust and accountability in the crypto trading industry. The company emphasized that these efforts are part of a wider effort to create a safer trading environment where projects and liquidity providers operate in a transparent and responsible manner, with the goal of ensuring that users can trade in an environment where listed projects, market makers, and the platform itself are held to higher standards.
