Crypto Exchange Bitget Invests $30M in Digital Wallet BitKeep
The exchange will use BitKeep to improve stability of security of handling multiple assets across different blockchains.
Seychelles-based crypto exchange Bitget has become the controlling shareholder in decentralized multi-chain wallet BitKeep with a $30 million investment, according to a press release Tuesday.
Founded in 2018, BitKeep raised $15 million at a $100 million valuation last year in a funding round that was led by Dragonfly Ventures. The press release didn't disclose the valuation at the time of Bitget's investment, and BitKeep didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

"The investment deal implies not only financial but also technical support," BitKeep Chief Operating Officer Moka Han said in the release.
Bitget's token (GBG) was up 10% to 41 cents in the past 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap.
