Bitget and Messi
In the tournament's thrilling final match, Argentina beat France in a penalty kick shootout. Lionel Messi won his first FIFA World Cup on Dec 18, Sunday. As one of the most talked about players of this World Cup, Messi helps Argentina hold the World Cup trophy for the third time. France team's star Kylian Mbappe was impressive but couldn't save his team.
In October 2022, Bitget claimed that it entered an exclusive partnership with Leo Messi. According to the statement, Bitget is committed to teaming up with Messi to explore the areas of Web3, cryptocurrency, and football.
Bitget pays heavy attention to the sports word. This crypto trading platform has invested heavily in Qatars FIFA World Cup 2022. As we know so far, Bitget invests $20 million in the worldwide event to raise awareness and fetch more people into crypto.
Last week Bitget announces that in order to conduct its global strategies, it has registered in Seychelles. The exchange plans to set up more branches in the future. Furthermore, the company has announced that its workforce will be expanded to 1200 employees by Q1 2023. The company is currently looking for marketing and branding team members.

Gracy Chen, Managing Director of Bitget, says, “We see Seychelles as a friendly region for the crypto community. We have been working for several months on this registration and are happy to announce the development now. The registration in Seychelles offers a constructive environment for Bitget, enabling us to unlock collaborations with partners and strengthen banking relationships, along with our expansion with different partnerships, such as the Argentine football legend Lionel Messi and the Italian football club Juventus. With a global footprint, Bitget fully embraces the concept of Web3, allowing the team to work in a decentralized way without a specific headquarters. We believe doing this can help us attract talent across borders as we are hyper-focused on growth and scaling up. It is crucial for us to recruit high-caliber candidates globally and set up regional hubs to aid local communication and coordination in strategic markets simultaneously.”(Bitget Limited)
Conclusion
Crypto exchange Bybit has announced its second mass layoff this year amid the crypto winter and FTX collapse, which has caused numerous firms to take the same action. It is curious that Bitget has been able to rise to the occasion when the entire cryptocurrency industry has been in the doldrums. It's also the brand that Messi brings him. It will be interesting to see how Bitget develops in the future.
