Fact Check
All three core elements are directly confirmed by official Bitget support announcements. The ASTRUSDT funding rate limits widen (±1.5% to ±2.0%) effective 2026-06-11 (article 12560603885663). DOODUSDT leverage/position-tier/maintenance margin settings are revised on 2026-06-11 (article 12560603885599). A batch of 10 other perpetual pairs (ARPAUSDT, BEATUSDT, BRETTUSDT, CELRUSDT, CHRUSDT, IDUSDT, MOVEUSDT, SPELLUSDT, VETUSDT, ZRXUSDT) is adjusted on 2026-06-12 (article 12560603885596). These match the claim precisely.
