Bitget Transfers 440 Million BGB to Morph Foundation, Making BGB Morph Chain’s Gas and Governance Token

Token control shifts to Morph with burns linked to network activity.

Overview

  • Half of the 440 million BGB will be burned immediately, with the remaining 220 million locked and released at 2% per month to fund liquidity, ecosystem development, and education.
  • Quarterly burns are paused in favor of an upfront burn and a new mechanism tied to Morph Chain usage until total supply falls to 100 million.
  • BGB replaces the need for a separate Morph-native token, unifying transaction fees and governance under a single asset.
  • Bitget relinquishes control of BGB’s supply as the Morph Foundation assumes responsibility for the roadmap, burn policies, and network integration.
  • Morph will tap Bitget’s wallet and liquidity support and target onboarding more than 120 million users, with Morph Points remaining valid pending a detailed redemption plan.
