La lettre ouverte du directeur juridique de Bitget met en évidence les projets d’expansion et de conformité réglementaire de l’entreprise

VICTORIA, Seychelles, 08 avr. 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitget, principale Bourse de cryptomonnaies et société Web3, a publié une lettre ouverte de son directeur juridique, Hon Ng, qui souligne les efforts de la plateforme en matière de conformité réglementaire et d’expansion à l’échelle mondiale. La CEX poursuit sa croissance sur le marché mondial des cryptomonnaies en obtenant des approbations réglementaires et en développant ses activités. En mettant fortement l’accent sur la conformité, Bitget s’adapte à l’évolution du paysage réglementaire, et avec l’octroi de plus de huit licences, la plateforme garantit à ses utilisateurs un environnement de trading sécurisé et transparent.

C’est dans le cadre d’une lettre ouverte que le directeur juridique de Bitget, Hon Ng, a présenté l’orientation stratégique de l’entreprise en mentionnant ses projets de renforcement de la position réglementaire de Bitget dans de nombreuses juridictions. Ses déclarations illustrent l’importance des dialogues engagés en matière de réglementation et mettent en avant les initiatives à venir qui façonneront l’avenir de la plateforme.

« Parce que l’environnement réglementaire des actifs numériques fait l’objet d’une définition de plus en plus stricte, Bitget prend des mesures proactives de collaboration avec les autorités afin d’assurer une croissance responsable. La conformité n’est pas une obligation, c’est une nécessité ; il s’agit en effet d’établir une norme pour le secteur et de bâtir un écosystème durable pour les utilisateurs », a déclaré Hon Ng, directeur juridique de Bitget.

Bitget a déjà obtenu des homologations et des approbations sur plusieurs marchés clés, dont notamment l’Australie, l’Italie, la Pologne, la Lituanie, le Royaume–Uni, la République tchèque et le Salvador. Ces réalisations s’inscrivent dans le cadre de la stratégie de l’entreprise qui vise à travailler dans le respect des cadres juridiques et à soutenir des initiatives qui favorisent une sécurité avancée et la protection des utilisateurs. Les équipes juridiques et de conformité de Bitget travaillent en étroite collaboration afin d’obtenir des licences supplémentaires dans certaines juridictions de manière à renforcer l’accessibilité et la crédibilité de la plateforme.

Pour l’année à venir, l’un des principaux objectifs consiste à affiner les protocoles de conformité de l’entreprise. Un processus rigoureux de connaissance des clients (Know Your Customer, KYC) est actuellement mis en œuvre dans le but d’optimiser la vérification des utilisateurs tout en assurant le respect des réglementations en matière de lutte contre le blanchiment d’argent et le financement du terrorisme. Parallèlement, Bitget investit dans des outils avancés de surveillance des transactions afin de détecter et de prévenir toute activité illicite de manière à garantir le respect des normes d’intégrité financière les plus strictes.

La collaboration avec les régulateurs et les organismes chargés de l’application de la loi reste un aspect clé des efforts déployés par Bitget en matière de conformité. L’entreprise a ainsi mis en place des canaux de communication directs avec les autorités afin de faciliter la transparence des signalements et d’optimiser les délais de réponse en cas de détection d’activité suspecte. Grâce à l’adoption de nouvelles solutions technologiques, Bitget entend renforcer la coopération internationale tout en préservant la confidentialité des données des utilisateurs.

Outre les avancées réglementaires, Bitget se concentre également sur le lancement de produits innovants qui respectent les exigences en matière de conformité. Bitget met déjà en place un niveau supérieur de protection des utilisateurs, des fonctionnalités de gestion des risques, ainsi que des mesures de sécurité optimisées qui renforcent la durabilité et la crédibilité de la plateforme. Cette démarche répond parfaitement à l’objectif de l’entreprise consistant à offrir une plateforme de trading sécurisée, conforme et centrée sur l’utilisateur.

Dans le cadre de son engagement à exercer ses activités de façon responsable, Bitget se conforme rigoureusement au contrôle de l’application des sanctions internationales. L’accès à la plateforme est ainsi interdit aux utilisateurs des régions soumises à restrictions, ce qui permet de garantir que la totalité des activités s’inscrivent toujours dans les limites du cadre légal en vigueur. Une équipe spécialement dédiée à la conformité suit en permanence l’évolution de la réglementation internationale de manière à pouvoir adapter les politiques concernées si nécessaire.

La stratégie mise en œuvre par Bitget sur le plan juridique et de la conformité est conçue afin de s’adapter à l’évolution rapide du paysage des actifs numériques. Alors que les discussions en matière de réglementation évoluent à l’échelle internationale, l’entreprise est prête à adapter son propre cadre réglementaire aux nouvelles politiques et aux normes émergentes du secteur. Afin de contribuer à une évolution responsable de la réglementation des cryptomonnaies, l’équipe juridique de Bitget demeure engagée dans les discussions initiées avec les décideurs politiques.

« La conformité est un processus continu qui exige anticipation et collaboration. Notre objectif dans ce domaine est simple : nous conformer, nous développer, exercer nos activités, et croître. Nous continuons d’accorder la priorité au fait de rendre les cryptomonnaies accessibles à tous, partout dans le monde, et chaque licence et approbation obtenue par Bitget nous rapproche un peu plus de cet objectif », a ajouté Ng.

Les efforts continus déployés par Bitget en matière de développement et de conformité confirment son rôle d’acteur majeur sur le marché des cryptomonnaies. En restant à l’avant–garde des évolutions réglementaires et en mettant en œuvre des mesures de sécurité rigoureuses, l’entreprise entend bien conserver son titre de Bourse de cryptomonnaies la plus fiable au monde.

Offener Brief des Chief of Legal von Bitget hebt Expansions- und Regulierungskonformitätspläne hervor

VICTORIA, Seychellen, April 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitget, die führende Kryptowährungsbörse und Web3–Firma, hat einen offenen Brief seines Chief Legal Officer, Hon Ng, veröffentlicht, in dem die Bemühungen des Unternehmens um die Einhaltung globaler Vorschriften und die Expansion hervorgehoben werden. Die CEX wächst auf dem globalen Kryptomarkt weiter, indem sie behördliche Genehmigungen einholt und ihre Geschäftstätigkeit ausweitet. Mit einem starken Fokus auf Compliance navigiert Bitget durch sich entwickelnde regulatorische Landschaften mit über acht Lizenzen und stellt gleichzeitig sicher, dass die Benutzer Zugang zu einer sicheren und transparenten Trading–Umgebung haben.

Hon Ng, Chief Legal Officer bei Bitget, hat in einem offenen Brief die strategische Ausrichtung des Unternehmens dargelegt und Pläne vorgestellt, um die regulatorische Stellung von Bitget in mehreren Gerichtsbarkeiten auszubauen. Seine Aussagen zeigen, wie wichtig Regulierungsdialoge sind, und heben kommende Initiativen hervor, die die Zukunft der Plattform prägen werden.

„Das regulatorische Umfeld für digitale Vermögenswerte wird immer klarer definiert, und Bitget ergreift proaktive Maßnahmen, um mit den Behörden zusammenzuarbeiten und ein verantwortungsvolles Wachstum sicherzustellen. Compliance ist keine Pflicht, sondern eine Notwendigkeit. Es geht darum, einen Standard für die Branche zu setzen und ein nachhaltiges Ökosystem für die Nutzer aufzubauen“, so Hon Ng, Chief Legal Officer bei Bitget.

Bitget hat bereits Registrierungen und Genehmigungen in mehreren Schlüsselmärkten erhalten, darunter Australien, Italien, Polen, Litauen, das Vereinigte Königreich, die Tschechische Republik und El Salvador. Diese Erfolge stehen im Einklang mit der Strategie des Unternehmens, innerhalb des gesetzlichen Rahmens zu arbeiten und Initiativen zu unterstützen, die fortschrittliche Sicherheit und Benutzerschutz fördern. Die Rechts– und Compliance–Teams arbeiten eng zusammen, um zusätzliche Lizenzen in Gerichtsbarkeiten zu erhalten, die die Zugänglichkeit und Glaubwürdigkeit der Plattform weiter verbessern werden.

Eines der Hauptziele für das kommende Jahr ist die Verfeinerung der Compliance–Protokolle des Unternehmens. Es wird ein starker Know–Your–Customer–Prozess (KYC) eingeführt, um die Überprüfung der Benutzer zu optimieren und gleichzeitig die Vorschriften zur Bekämpfung von Geldwäsche und Terrorismusfinanzierung einzuhalten. Gleichzeitig investiert Bitget in fortschrittliche Tools zur Transaktionsüberwachung, um illegale Aktivitäten zu erkennen und zu verhindern und sicherzustellen, dass alle Vorgänge den höchsten Standards der finanziellen Integrität entsprechen.

Die Zusammenarbeit mit Regulierungs– und Strafverfolgungsbehörden ist nach wie vor ein wichtiger Aspekt der Compliance–Bemühungen von Bitget. Das Unternehmen hat direkte Kommunikationskanäle zu den Behörden eingerichtet, um eine transparente Berichterstattung zu ermöglichen und die Reaktionszeiten bei verdächtigen Aktivitäten zu verbessern. Durch die Einführung neuer technologischer Lösungen möchte Bitget die globale Zusammenarbeit verbessern und gleichzeitig die Privatsphäre der Nutzer schützen.

Neben der Weiterentwicklung der Vorschriften konzentriert sich Bitget auf die Einführung innovativer Produkte, die den Compliance–Anforderungen entsprechen. Bitget arbeitet bereits an einem noch stärkeren Benutzerschutz, Risikomanagementfunktionen und verbesserten Sicherheitsmaßnahmen, die die Beständigkeit und Glaubwürdigkeit der Plattform stärken. Dies steht im Einklang mit den Zielen des Unternehmens, eine sichere, konforme und benutzerorientierte Plattform für den Handel zu unterhalten.

Im Rahmen seines Engagements für verantwortungsvolle Geschäftspraktiken hält sich Bitget strikt an internationale Sanktionskontrollen. Benutzern aus eingeschränkten Regionen ist der Zugriff auf die Plattform untersagt, um sicherzustellen, dass alle Aktivitäten innerhalb der gesetzlichen Grenzen bleiben. Ein spezielles Compliance–Team überwacht kontinuierlich die globalen regulatorischen Entwicklungen, um die Richtlinien bei Bedarf anzupassen.

Die Rechts– und Compliance–Strategie von Bitget ist darauf ausgelegt, sich an die sich schnell verändernde Landschaft der digitalen Vermögenswerte anzupassen. Da sich die regulatorischen Diskussionen weltweit weiterentwickeln, ist das Unternehmen darauf vorbereitet, seinen Rahmen an neue Richtlinien und aufkommende Branchenstandards anzupassen. Das Rechtsteam führt weiterhin Gespräche mit politischen Entscheidungsträgern, um zur verantwortungsvollen Entwicklung von Krypto–Vorschriften beizutragen.

„Compliance ist ein kontinuierlicher Prozess, der Voraussicht und Zusammenarbeit erfordert. Unser Ziel hier ist einfach: Wir halten uns an die Vorschriften, erweitern, betreiben und wachsen. Unser Fokus liegt weiterhin darauf, Kryptowährungen für alle Menschen weltweit zugänglich zu machen, und jede Lizenz und Genehmigung bringt uns diesem Ziel einen Schritt näher“, fügte Ng hinzu.

Die anhaltenden Expansions– und Compliance–Bemühungen von Bitget bestätigen seine Rolle als führender Akteur auf dem Kryptomarkt. Indem das Unternehmen regulatorischen Änderungen immer einen Schritt voraus ist und strenge Sicherheitsmaßnahmen umsetzt, plant es in der Tat, seinen Titel als eine der vertrauenswürdigsten Krypto–Börsen weltweit zu behalten.

Nosso foco continua sendo tornar as criptomoedas acessíveis a todos globalmente, e cada licença e aprovação está um passo mais perto disso”, acrescentou Ng.

Os esforços contínuos de expansão e conformidade da Bitget reafirmam seu papel como líder no mercado de criptomoedas.

Nyxoah Présente une Mise à Jour Concernant la Lettre d'Approuvabilité de la FDA pour le Système Genio

Nyxoah Présente une Mise à Jour Concernant la Lettre d'Approuvabilité de la FDA pour le Système Genio
Prévoit de satisfaire aux exigences finales de la FDA pour obtenir l'approbation PMA complète au cours du deuxième trimestre

Mont–Saint–Guibert, Belgique – 8 avril 2025, 07h00 CET / 01h00 ET – Nyxoah SA (Euronext Brussels/Nasdaq: NYXH) (« Nyxoah » ou la « Société »), une société de technologie médicale développant des alternatives thérapeutiques innovantes pour l'apnée obstructive du sommeil (AOS) par la neuromodulation, a annoncé aujourd'hui une mise à jour sur le processus d'approbation du système Genio par la FDA.

Le 26 mars 2025, la Société a annoncé que la Food and Drug Administration (FDA) des États–Unis avait émis une lettre d'approuvabilité (“Approvable Letter) concernant la demande d'approbation préalable à la mise sur le marché (PMA) de la Société pour le système Genio®.

La lettre d'approuvabilité (“Approvable Letter) signifie que la demande de Nyxoah pour la commercialisation du dispositif aux États–Unis répond en grande partie aux exigences de la loi fédérale sur les aliments, les médicaments et les cosmétiques (Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act) et aux règlements d'application de la PMA de la FDA codifiés à la section 814 du 21 C.F.R., et que la FDA approuvera la demande sous réserve de l'achèvement satisfaisant d'un examen des installations de fabrication, des méthodes et des contrôles. La FDA a accepté toutes les autres données fournies avec la demande de PMA, y compris et surtout l'étude clinique qui démontre la sécurité et l'efficacité du système Genio®.

Nyxoah s'occupe activement d'un point restant avant que l'approbation de la FDA ne soit éventuellement accordée, à savoir la validation d'un processus utilisé avec un composant du système Genio sur son site de fabrication aux États–Unis. La Société est convaincue qu'elle sera en mesure de mener à bien cette validation à court terme. Ainsi, Nyxoah prévoit que sa demande pourrait être approuvée au cours du deuxième trimestre et prévoit de fournir une mise à jour sur le processus d'examen lors de sa conférence téléphonique sur les résultats du premier trimestre 2025, qui aura lieu en mai.

“Nous sommes heureux d'annoncer que la lettre d'approuvabilité de la FDA confirme que nous sommes très proches de l'approbation PMA,” a commenté Olivier Taelman, Chief Executive Officer de Nyxoah. “Nous pensons que la dernière étape restante est l'achèvement de la validation d’un processus sur notre site de production aux États–Unis – une mesure prise en réponse à la dernière série de questions spécifiques de validation envoyées par la FDA – que nous sommes convaincus de pouvoir traiter rapidement et avec succès. Nous sommes impatients de lancer Genio aux États–Unis dès que nous aurons reçu l'approbation de la FDA.”

A propos de Nyxoah
Nyxoah opère dans le secteur des technologies médicales. Elle se concentre sur le développement et la commercialisation de solutions innovantes destinées à traiter le Syndrome d’Apnées Obstructives du Sommeil (SAOS). La principale solution de Nyxoah est le système Genio®, une thérapie de neurostimulation du nerf hypoglosse sans sonde et sans batterie qui a reçu le marquage CE, centrée sur le patient et destinée à traiter le Syndrome d’Apnées Obstructives du Sommeil (SAOS), le trouble respiratoire du sommeil le plus courant au monde. Ce dernier est associé à un risque accru de mortalité et des comorbidités, dont les maladies cardiovasculaires. La visions de Nyxoah est que les patients souffrant de SAOS doivent pouvoir profiter de nuits réparatrices et vivre pleinement leur vie.

À la suite de la finalisation probante de l’étude BLAST OSA, le système Genio® a reçu le marquage européen CE en 2019. Nyxoah a réalisé avec succès deux IPO : l’une sur Euronext Bruxelles en septembre 2020 et l’autre sur le NASDAQ en juillet 2021. Grâce aux résultats positifs de l'étude BETTER SLEEP, Nyxoah a reçu le marquage CE pour l’extension de ses indications thérapeutiques aux patients souffrant de collapsus concentrique complet (CCC), pour lesquels les thérapies concurrentes sont actuellement contre–indiquées. En outre, la Société a annoncé les résultats positifs de l'étude pivot DREAM IDE.

Nyxoah Provides Update on FDA Approvable Letter for Genio System

Nyxoah Provides Update on FDA Approvable Letter for Genio System
Expects to meet final FDA requirements for full PMA approval in the second quarter

Mont–Saint–Guibert, Belgium – April 8, 2025, 07:00am CET / 1:00am ET – Nyxoah SA (Euronext Brussels/Nasdaq: NYXH) (“Nyxoah” or the “Company”), which develops breakthrough treatment alternatives for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) through neuromodulation, today announced an update on the FDA approval process for the Genio system.

On March 26, 2025, the Company announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an Approvable Letter regarding the Company's Pre–Market Approval (PMA) application for the Genio® system.

The Approvable Letter means that Nyxoah’s application for marketing the device in the United States substantially meets the requirements of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and the FDA’s PMA implementing regulations codified at 21 C.F.R. Part 814, and the FDA will approve the application subject to satisfactory completion of a manufacturing facilities, methods and controls review. FDA has accepted all other data provided with the PMA submission, including most importantly the clinical study that demonstrates the safety and effectiveness of the Genio® system.

Nyxoah is actively addressing one remaining item before FDA approval may be granted which is the validation of one process used with a component of the Genio system at its U.S. manufacturing site. The Company is confident that it will be able to successfully complete this validation in the near term. As such, Nyxoah anticipates that its application could potentially be approved in the second quarter and intends to provide an update on the review process on its first quarter 2025 earnings call to be held in May.

“We are pleased to share that the Approvable Letter from FDA confirms that we are very close to PMA approval,” commented Olivier Taelman, Nyxoah’s Chief Executive Officer. “We believe the final remaining step is completing a process validation at our U.S. manufacturing site – action taken in response to the last set of specific validation questions sent by the FDA – which we are confident we can address swiftly and successfully. We look forward to launching Genio in the U.S. upon receipt of FDA approval.”

About Nyxoah
Nyxoah is a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative solutions to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Nyxoah’s lead solution is the Genio® system, a patient–centered, leadless and battery–free hypoglossal neurostimulation therapy for OSA, the world’s most common sleep disordered breathing condition that is associated with increased mortality risk and cardiovascular comorbidities.

By Joyce Chimbi
NAIROBI, Apr 8 2025 – Global food and nutrition insecurity levels are hurtling towards a catastrophe. To counter these problems, leading world experts say science is the ‘silver bullet.’ That science will build climate-resilient agri-food systems, improve livelihoods across the value chain, and ensure more affordable, nutritious food while safeguarding the environment.

“We want a positive impact on the global food security. Science is about bringing us insights into issues so that we can then have an impact. Food security cannot happen without science, without research, without data, without analysis, without information, without intelligence, and without thought,” said CGIAR Executive Managing Director Ismahane Elouafi.

“CGIAR scientists will present to you our new research portfolio for 2025-2030, which we believe will really tackle the challenges that we are talking about in the Science Week. We have an incredible team of scientists who really envisioned what the organization can achieve in the coming years. We grow our robust research in high-risk systems and context-specific settings to achieve effective solutions.”

“The most important aspect is the ongoing work on the ground and in the industries, in the field and laboratories, and it is why we need our scientists and partners to come together. Our science research program can provide solutions but those solutions have to be made by people. For this reason, we need to meet in person and virtually and engage so that we live up to set goals.”

During the second day’s plenary session, there was a special focus on the CGIAR’s new research portfolio and on exploring strategies for effectively scaling innovations to ensure they reach farmers and consumers worldwide. With a focus on addressing the major challenges to food, land, and water systems sustainability, participants were given insights into how CGIAR’s work aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals and contributes to global efforts for agricultural transformation.

Dr. Sandra Milach, CGIAR’s Chief Scientist, told participants where the organization’s scientific revolution all started. Nearly 50 years ago, CGIAR turned to science for solutions by building centers to address segregation in countries still dealing with the effects of centuries of colonization. The organization built farms and lifted millions from hunger in Africa, Asia, and many parts of Latin America.

“However, the world today is different, very different. Yes, we still have global food and water emergencies that we need to address, but we are also facing climate change, biodiversity loss, and new conflicts. Very difficult indeed. Once again, we need and must build capabilities to address these new problems. We have done it before. I’m very confident we will do it again. In 2021, we refocused our strategy to rebuild and do so around five important impact areas, including nutrition, livelihoods, gender, climate, and biodiversity,” Milach said.

Over the years, CGIAR’s mandate has been shaped by an evolving global crisis and they have developed their capabilities to match contemporary problems. She talked about CGIAR’s cutting-edge research and initiatives designed to tackle these pressing issues and discuss the pathways for translating scientific discoveries into tangible benefits for communities on the ground.

By highlighting the intersections between CGIAR’s research and broader international development agenda, she said the organization aims to underscore the importance of collaborative efforts in driving progress towards a sustainable and food-secure future. Emphasizing that the new research portfolio 2025-2030 is big and ambitious, as it for instance, seeks to reduce the number of people affected by extreme hunger by 26 percent and that is 1.82 million people, by 2030. Saying that this is nearly the size of her native country, Brazil.

“Our scientists know how to produce more crops and even more new crops. Our green fields are large and well-established, but we will need to look critically at all the staple crops, bio-fortified crops, and forgotten crops to understand what needs to be done tomorrow. Our scientists also have the knowledge and innovations to empower livestock keepers and fishermen and make sustainable animal and animal food production a core offering. But we will make sure not to design our research programs solely to produce more food. Equally important, better diets and nutrition are central to our work,” Milach.

“By 2030, it is our mission to lift 31 million people from extreme poverty and it will be the foundation of what we do. We hope also to create 92 million jobs, a number equal to the workforce of any nation, just to give you a perspective. Indeed, by improving farms and helping farmers, we will also benefit the environment so that jobs are created around the environment. And we will do it while increasing the average income by 87 percent. This is our pledge.”

Another priority goal will be to prevent 500 million tons of emissions by 2030. Milach said the innovations are just as important as the knowledge and that CGIAR will also build on indigenous and traditional food practices and that knowledge created through these systems will travel across borders. The issue of gender and social inclusion will feature prominently in the new portfolio and specifically towards increasing women and youth employment in the agri-food system and sector.

“Importantly, technologies can be adapted and developed beyond the communities they were designed for. In a more fragile world that we live in today, we have a duty to the smallholder farmers. But not only that, to the communities that they serve. We will need our science to adapt to new food frontiers and security contexts. Especially food producers in urban areas, in islands, and in conflict zones that exist across the world,” she reiterated.

“Our reform was designed to tackle the biodiversity crisis. One million species are at risk of extinction. By 2030, we want to deliver an innovation that will protect 20 billion hectares of land for expansion. This represents 25 percent of the size of the Amazon forest.  But we cannot focus on one parcel of land, one waterway, one specific crop, or one biome. We need to use less land and we need to build a bigger land and this can be achieved through environmentally sound solutions.”

Panel discussions in plenary buttressed her remarks by emphasizing the critical role of science in promoting climate-smart agriculture and in proper diversification, soil health, better conservation and conservation practices, and in addressing water scarcity. Overall, CGIAR is designed to prioritize the organization’s impact within their global mission. While also setting the tone for the global science community so that science can serve people and communities.

BitMEX Study Reveals Superior Performance of Perpetual Swap Listings, with an Average Price Gain of 62.55%, Outperforming Competitors

MAHE, Seychelles, April 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BitMEX, the OG crypto derivatives exchange, today shared a comprehensive analysis of perpetual swap listings across major centralised exchanges, shedding light on the behaviour of newly listed perpetual swap contracts – and whether they see their price peak on the first day of listing. The study, which compares  listings on BitMEX, Binance, Bybit, and OKX from the beginning of 2025 to March 2025, highlights significant exchange–specific variations in price performance.

Key findings from the the study include:

  • BitMEX Outperformance: BitMEX emerged as a standout exchange with the highest number of perpetual swap listings, with an average gain of 62.55% among listings that appreciated after the first day. Notably, 58.33% of its listings continued to appreciate post–listing day.
  • Exchange Variability: The data shows that only 41.67% of BitMEX listings reached their all–time high (ATH) on the first day, contrasting with 70.83% on OKX and 50% on Binance. This indicates that the “first day peak” theory is not universally applicable across exchanges.
  • Price Peak Timing: Most tokens that appreciate post–listing reach their maximum price within the first week, with BitMEX listings taking a median of six days to peak.

“Our analysis highlights BitMEX's unique ability to identify and support promising token projects, offering traders a platform where they can capitalise on sustained price appreciation. This is a testament to our rigorous listing process and market structure, which we believe provides a competitive edge for both traders and listed assets,” said Stephan Lutz, CEO of BitMEX.

The study underscores the importance of exchange–specific dynamics in helping traders profit from trading perpetual swap listings. By leveraging these insights, traders can develop more effective strategies for navigating the evolving landscape of new perpetual swap listings. With its superior listing performance and sustained price appreciation, BitMEX remains a preferred platform for both traders and projects seeking to maximise their potential in the cryptocurrency derivatives market.

Digital Democracy at a Crossroads. Key Takeaways from RigthsCon2025

By Carolina Vega and Chibuzor Nwabueze
Apr 7 2025 –  
In an increasingly digital world, democratic practices are evolving to encompass new forms of participation. Digital democracy – the use of technology to enhance civic action, movement building and access to information – has become a crucial force in shaping local and global political landscapes.

As digital spaces become central to public discourse, civil society’s work is crucial to ensure these spaces remain accessible, open, participatory and resistant to disinformation, censorship and repression.

RightsCon 2025, recently held in Taiwan, offered an opportunity to discuss the current challenges and opportunities at the intersection of tech and human rights.

The digital democracy dilemma

Internet access has expanded among excluded communities, providing new opportunities for civic action and organising for historically excluded communities. But at the same time there’s increasing use of digital surveillance, censorship and algorithmic manipulation by governments and companies with the aim of suppressing dissent and controlling public discourse.

In 2023, the last year for which full data is available, internet penetration in low-income countries grew by three per cent, but this came alongside a record decline in global electoral integrity, with state-backed disinformation campaigns influencing elections in at least 30 countries. This means there’s an urgent need for policies that both enhance digital inclusion and safeguard civic freedoms from technological threats, particularly given that AI use is growing.

Civil society is calling for a global regulatory framework that ensures tech is beneficial for all, while facing the challenge of tech-facilitated attacks on civic freedoms. At the same time, civil society resourcing is shrinking and stigmatising narratives from authoritarian governments spread by tech are on the rise. Meanwhile – as CIVICUS’s 2025 State of Civil Society Report outlines – big-tech corporations focus on protecting their political and profit agendas. This makes spaces for convening and deliberation like RightsCon more vital than ever.

What next?

A global framework is crucial to ensure technology serves the public good and contributes to a more inclusive and equitable society. As digital technologies become deeply embedded in every aspect of governance and civic space, as well as cultural and belief systems, the risks of fragmented digital policies and regulations grow, leading to inconsistent mechanisms for protection and unequal access across regions. This fragmentation can significantly increase exposure to disinformation, exploitation and surveillance, particularly for traditionally excluded and vulnerable groups.

The Global Digital Compact (GDC) agreed at last year’s UN Summit of the Future represents the kind of comprehensive, multilateral framework civil society should advocate for. By fostering global cooperation, the GDC aims to establish shared principles for digital governance that prioritise human rights, democratic values and inclusive access to digital tools.

Through international bodies and cross-sector collaborations – such as those held at RightsCon – civil society can contribute towards shaping this framework, ensuring that civil society, governments and the private sector, including tech companies, work together to create a cohesive and accountable approach to digital governance.

Challenges and opportunities

Follow-up to the GDC must address a wide range of challenges, including digital access and inclusion. The existing digital ecosystem hinders equitable participation in democratic processes and efforts to realise human rights. There’s a need to close digital divides through targeted investments in education, digital skills and infrastructure, ensuring that everyone, regardless of geography or socioeconomic status, can access the tools needed to participate fully in shaping society. Civil society’s work here must be locally led, putting communities’ needs at the heart of advocacy and focusing on curating spaces for consultation and participation.

Another critical challenge is the intersection of government digitalisation and civic engagement. E-governance and online public services offer the potential for greater transparency, efficiency and participation, but they also introduce risks for privacy and security, reinforcing longstanding structural injustices such as racism and gender discrimination. Guidelines are needed to ensure transparency and accountability in digital governance while protecting the right to privacy. Polices need to enable the use of digital tools to fight and prevent corruption and ensure governments are held accountable.

And then there are the complex issues of AI governance. As AI technologies rapidly evolve, there come growing threats of algorithmic biases, a lack of transparency and the manipulation of public discourse and information ecosystems. Robust ethical standards for AI are needed that prioritise human rights and democratic values.

From the manipulation of public opinion, efforts to distort electoral outcomes and the generation of false narratives that can incite violence and social unrest, disinformation has many negative impacts on democracy. Evidence has repeatedly shown that in countries where politicians intensively use disinformation tactics, people’s trust in public institutions and democratic processes wanes and civic participation, a critical ingredient for democratic progress, falls. Conversations during RightsCon 2025 emphasised that civil society must engage with governments and regional and global institutions to help develop policies that regulate how information is managed in the digital age while working to improve media literacy and fact-checking initiatives.

The added value of civil society lies in its ability to act as a convener, broker and watchdog, and an advocate with and for traditionally excluded voices. Civil society is key in pushing for the inclusion of strong data protection laws, digital rights protections and regulations that curb the unchecked power of tech companies, where many grey areas for accountability remain underexplored. Working alongside governments and the private sector, civil society can lead the way in developing policies that safeguard democratic values, enhance accountability and ensure technology remains a tool for positive societal change. Through collective advocacy and partnership, civil society can drive a vision of a truly inclusive and ethical digital future.

Digital democracy and the challenges it faces aren’t national issues but global ones. Disinformation, cyberattacks and the erosion of digital rights transcend borders. More grounded international solidarity and cooperation is needed to create and enforce standards that protect online civic space and rights. The GDC must be supported and made more robust as a global framework for digital governance that upholds human rights, promotes transparency and ensures accountability.

Initiatives like the Digital Democracy Initiative should be championed in recognition of the unique role society plays in monitoring, analysing and challenging threats to digital democracy. It’s never been more crucial to enable and amplify civil society action in the face of global democratic decline amid an increasingly digital age.
