The silent war between Chinese exchanges is wild right now.
Everyone's publicly saying "we stand with Bitget" but behind the scenes? Pure business.
The playbook:
- Bitget opens $ETH withdrawals → OKX instantly launches "deposit ETH for 5 days, split $400K pool"
- Bitget opens $BTC withdrawals → OKX already had a BTC pool ready
This is textbook liquidity sniping. The moment users can move funds, competitors are ready with incentive campaigns to capture that flow.
Say what you want about the optics, but this is peak crypto competition. Support publicly, compete privately. The industry moves fast and capital flows faster.
