Who should choose Bitget

Bitget suits people who want variety and a full toolkit under one roof. It covers far more spot coins at 507 and more futures coins at 478, plus tokenized stocks at 2,991. Leverage runs up to 125x for those who want it. You also get a debit card, loans, peer-to-peer trading and trading bots. The trade-off is that KYC is required, so you must verify your identity to trade.

Who should choose Hyperliquid

Hyperliquid fits traders focused on futures who prefer a decentralized setup and want to keep KYC optional. Its fees run lower: futures at 0.015% maker and 0.045% taker, and spot at 0.04% maker and 0.07% taker. It also offers prediction markets. Leverage tops out lower at 40x, and the coin selection is narrower, so it works best if you value cheaper trades and on-chain custody over breadth.

Verdict

Pick Bitget if you want the widest choice of coins, tokenized stocks, higher leverage and extras like a card and loans, and you don’t mind verifying your identity. Pick Hyperliquid if you mainly trade futures, want lower fees and prefer to keep KYC optional.
