Bitget in Kenya

By Josephine Njeri · Crypto hub

Bitget is a global exchange known for its copy-trading feature, where you can automatically mirror the trades of a chosen trader. In Kenya, it is a smaller player than Binance or Bybit, with functional P2P and a niche appeal for copy-trading users.

How to start

Sign up, KYC, P2P for M-PESA funding, and explore the copy-trading feature if that is why you came.

Where it fits

Copy trading fans, a fourth-choice exchange, or specific coin exposure. Not a first stop for buying with M-PESA.

Trade-offs

Thinner Kenyan P2P depth, more focus on derivatives than spot.

Frequently asked
