According to Odaily, during the Bitget "User First" livestream, Chinese-speaking region head Xie Jiayin stated that from the very first day he joined Bitget, he had a clear goal: to transform the platform from an industry "follower" into a "leader." He emphasized that "user interests first" is not just a slogan, but a set of action standards that must be implemented over the long term. In his view, if one cannot truly protect user rights and interests, they are not qualified to serve as the head of the Chinese-speaking region. He also mentioned that the upgrade of the VIP system is far more than just "lower fees and better benefits." More importantly, it is about redefining the long-term value of VIP from the perspective of service itself. Going forward, Bitget will focus on the real needs of high-net-worth users and gradually improve a comprehensive service system, including exclusive financial management solutions, large client staking and lending support, monthly airdrops, exclusive online and offline events, and customized customer service.

According to TechFlow, on December 18, during the Bitget "User First" livestream, Chinese-speaking representative Xie Jiayin provided explanations regarding the VIP system upgrade and user-focused service experience. He stated that lower fees are only the starting point for VIP upgrades; what truly determines long-term value is whether the service can continuously meet users' ever-evolving professional needs. Regarding this comprehensive upgrade of the VIP system, he further elaborated on the new service philosophy of "the lowest fees and the most generous benefits." Xie Jiayin pointed out that the core of the VIP system is not a single discount, but rather the continuous reduction of users' trading and management costs through a more stable trading experience, more efficient service response, and a support system that is more closely aligned with real usage scenarios, allowing professional decisions to focus more on investment itself.
