Summary

Morph confirmed the destruction of 220 million BGB tokens, with all transactions verifiable on-chain. An additional 220 million tokens are locked in a foundation-controlled address, set to unlock 2% monthly over 50 months. The project also reaffirmed plans to migrate BGB from Ethereum to the Morph chain, where it will function as both a gas and governance token.

Terms & Concepts
  • Bitget Token (BGB): The native token of the Bitget exchange, used for trading fee discounts, staking, and other platform utilities.
  • Morph Chain: The blockchain where BGB will migrate, serving as both gas token and governance utility.
  • Token Burn: The permanent removal of tokens from circulation, reducing supply to potentially increase scarcity and value.
