Bitget Unveils Blockchain4Her Ambassador Program Joined By Three Female Leaders
VICTORIA, Seychelles, March 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bitget, the leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, has announced the launch of the Blockchain4Her (B4H) Ambassador Program — a unique project under the Blockchain4Her Initiative, aimed at bolstering inclusiveness in the publicly secure funding opportunities for women. The new program will give aspiring women the chance to act as ambassadors and catalysts for change, encouraging more individuals to join.
Bitget is launching the B4H Ambassador Program based on its findings, which reveal a significant gender gap and limited opportunities for talented women to engage publicly and secure funding. The program seeks to bridge this gap by welcoming exceptional women leaders, who will serve as role models, builders, supporters, and mentors, empowering and elevating a new generation of female talent and leaders through their guidance, assistance, and expertise.
At present, the B4H Ambassador Program has already attracted three prominent female individuals, including Tess Hau, the founder of Tess Ventures, Yevheniia Broshevan, the Co-founder of Hacken, and Cecilia Hsueh, the CEO of the Layer 2 ecosystem project Morph.
The initiative will include a number of special projects and events that aim to create a supportive and inclusive environment by cultivating a network of empowered female leaders and innovators. Bitget’s B4H Ambassador Program will advance the role of women in the Web3 space through a multi-faceted approach, which will include four key initiatives:
Role modeling
The program will spotlight the diverse journeys of its Ambassadors through inspirational stories. This strategy aims to humanize the path to success in various fields, making it more relatable and inspiring for women. It encourages more women to delve into Web3 opportunities and advance by connecting with pioneers in the industry.
Networking
Events and meetups will form the second avenue of empowerment, providing a vibrant platform for Ambassadors to showcase their expertise at regional and international gatherings, including conferences and speaking engagements. Regular events will amplify the visibility of key figures in the Web3 industry and expand their professional networks, thus opening more avenues for aspiring women to pursue professional development opportunities.
Involvement
Ambassadors are pivotal to the B4H Initiative, contributing their expertise, networks, and resources across projects and events. They will support women through consultancy sessions and mentorship programs, creating a supportive environment that nurtures female talent.
Targeted support
Comprehensive support and training are key to advancing blockchain adoption, as Bitget is committed to the continuous development of its Ambassadors, providing them with essential training and support. This also includes opportunities for collaboration with leadership teams and industry professionals, ensuring that the Ambassadors are well-equipped to make significant contributions to the community and their personal growth.
“Women are the most underused resource of the global economy in practically every industry. We, on our part, are determined to promote their involvement in the blockchain space by opening up opportunities for them to join the industry and develop,” as Gracy Chen, the Managing Director of Bitget, commented on the launch of the B4H Ambassador Program.
The Ambassadors expressed their enthusiasm and high expectations for contributing to the Blockchain4Her initiative:
Tess Hau stated: “As a female VC and actively sought-out speaker in Web3 and gender equality, I find that Blockchain4Her’s mission aligns with Tess Ventures. It’s crucial to support women developers and leaders, ensuring that innovative and creative minds have the resources they need to succeed. As an Ambassador, I advocate for the transformative power of blockchain in promoting financial literacy and inclusion for women. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to Blockchain4Her’s initiative and look forward to the positive change we can create together.”
Yevheniia Broshevan expressed: “While we dream of Web3’s widespread adoption, it’s crucial to understand that achieving this goal is impossible without ensuring equal opportunities and openness for everyone in this space. I am honored to support initiatives that address these disparities, as I believe that projects of this nature propel us towards a world free from barriers and judgments.”
Cecilia Hsueh said: “The male-dominated blockchain industry is now witnessing an increasing number of female leaders. Their presence marks a step forward towards more acceptance and inclusivity. This change not only adds diversity to the sector but also makes the spread of complex blockchain technologies more accessible to the general public.”
Bitget has engaged in various CSR initiatives, notably launching Blockchain 4uth and Blockchain4Her, each backed by a $10 million commitment. The latter focuses on enhancing gender diversity and inclusivity within the blockchain industry.

DUBAI, UAE, Nov. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, in collaboration with Blocks Scholes, released the latest weekly derivatives analytics report and uncovered signals indicating ETH’s rise above BTC in the past week.
Fueled by news of current U.S. SEC Chair Gary Gensler’s departure at the end of the Biden administration’s term, ETH performance has positively surprised investors. In particular, open interest in ETH perpetual has been on the rise. Several large-cap altcoins also benefited from Gensler’s announcement, anticipating less scrutiny upcoming January.
Key Insights:
ETH outperformed BTC in open interest: Perpetual swap data has seen a gradual decline in BTC open interest while ETH contracts increased. ETH has also been taking a bigger share of daily trading volumes in the past 6-month time frame despite an overall slower market this week. The optimism could be attributed to hopeful investors’ expectation of a more crypto-friendly SEC Chair after Gensler’s last day on Jan. 20, 2025.
BTC price in retreat: BTC price’s ebbing from the $100K mark has flattened the ATM volatility term structure, with short-tenor options dipping below 60%. This mirrors a pattern observed since the U.S. election. Lower realized volatility explains the drop, while open interest in calls and puts remains unchanged, demands for short-term options this week have stagnated.
ETH options – bullish sentiment in moderation: ETH options show slightly more bullish sentiment than BTC options. Markets have recalibrated after the post-election high, but call options remain in the lead in both trading volumes and open interests.

TAIPEI, Nov. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — KryptoGO, a leader in Web3 financial infrastructure, has taken another groundbreaking step to ensure unparalleled user and enterprise safety by completing a rigorous security audit aligned with industry-leading methodologies. This milestone solidifies KryptoGO’s position alongside globally trusted platforms like 1Password, Metamask, and Trust Wallet, known for their exceptional security standards.
The audit, conducted with methodologies comparable to those used for 1Password—a benchmark in secure password management—focused on ensuring KryptoGO’s mobile applications, backend systems, and API endpoints meet the highest security standards. 1Password’s robust security features, such as end-to-end encryption, zero-knowledge architecture, and constant vulnerability testing, serve as the foundation for KryptoGO’s enhanced protection framework.
Demonstrating Excellence in Cybersecurity
KryptoGO has consistently showcased its expertise in security through achievements in prominent cybersecurity competitions and hackathons. Recognized for exceptional performance in events like 2024 BlazCTF, ETH Tokyo Hackathon, and ETH Taipei Hackathon, KryptoGO has solidified its reputation as a trusted innovator.
This audit marks another significant step forward, addressing potential vulnerabilities and reaffirming KryptoGO’s ability to safeguard user assets in an increasingly complex Web3 landscape. Notably, the findings resulted in a 50% reduction in vulnerabilities compared to prior assessments, demonstrating tangible progress in security hardening.
Why Security in Web3 Wallets Matters
In the Web3 ecosystem, wallets act as critical gateways, holding sensitive keys that grant users exclusive control over their digital assets. A single security lapse can lead to catastrophic consequences, including the loss of assets and the erosion of user trust.
Recognizing this, KryptoGO employs a multi-layered approach to private key management, ensuring the highest levels of security and reliability for its users:
- Device-Level Encryption: Private keys are encrypted with a Device Encryption Key and securely stored in the device’s protected environment (Keychain for iOS and Keystore for Android). Access to these keys is tightly controlled through biometric authentication, preventing unauthorized access.
- Password Protection with Argon2: For users who opt for password backups, KryptoGO utilizes Argon2-HMAC-SHA256 with 310,000 iterations to derive an Account Unlock Key (AUK). This industry-standard process, aligned with NIST guidelines, offers robust resistance to brute-force attacks while ensuring compatibility across a broad range of devices.
- Cloud Backup with Shamir’s Secret Sharing: To enhance convenience and accessibility, KryptoGO employs Shamir’s Secret Sharing Scheme (SSS) for password-free cloud backups. This approach splits private keys into multiple fragments (Key Shares) stored across diverse platforms like iCloud and Google Drive. Restoration is possible with any two fragments, ensuring data availability without compromising security.
These measures collectively address the most critical challenges in wallet security:
- Token Integrity: Robust lifecycle management prevents impersonation or unauthorized access.
- Advanced Encryption Standards: Sensitive wallet data and transactions are safeguarded by cutting-edge cryptographic techniques.
- Resilience Against Data Loss: Diverse and secure backup options ensure users can recover their wallets without fear of permanent loss.
- Access Control Enhancements: Multi-layered authentication mechanisms safeguard accounts.
- Secure APIs: Backdoor vulnerabilities and information leaks are actively prevented.
Results That Build Trust
The rigorous Cure53 audit, leveraging white-box and gray-box penetration testing, verified KryptoGO’s resilience against security threats. Cure53’s global reputation for securing critical systems further amplifies the credibility of KryptoGO’s security achievements. The resolution of key vulnerabilities identified during the audit, including token mismanagement and API access concerns, reflects KryptoGO’s dedication to continuous improvement and operational excellence.
Raising the Bar for Web3 Security
By achieving security certifications on par with 1Password and other leading platforms, KryptoGO has set a new benchmark for wallet safety in the Web3 era. These advancements empower users to confidently manage their digital assets while positioning KryptoGO as the trusted partner for enterprises seeking high standard and scalable blockchain solutions.
