<p>From January 2025, the gas fees of many blockchains such as Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, and Polygon will be paid in BGB through Bitget Wallet. Customers can select BGB, USDT, or USDC as the payment medium, making the process easier and cheaper. The wallet features a Reward Center where users can earn gas vouchers for simple actions in the ecosystem, making it useful.</p>  
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-bgb-token-burn-reduces-supply"><strong>BGB Token Burn Reduces Supply </strong></h2>  
<p>The significant move unveiled in the first token burn, reduces the BGB supply. Notably, <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/bitget-unifies-ecosystem-bwb-merges-with-bgb-driving-token-to-new-heights/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitget</a> eliminated 800 million tokens held by the core team. This burn reduces the token’s circulating supply from 2 billion to 1.2 billion, representing 40% of the token total supply. The company will offer on-chain records for transparency.</p>  
<p>Subsequent token burns are to occur every three months. With 20% of exchange and wallet earnings used to purchase and subsequently burn the tokens. These profits comprise spot, contract, leverage, swap, and Non-Fungible Token (NFT) transaction fees. The tokens will be transferred to a burn address, and the company will release transaction details after each burn process.</p>  
<p>Moreover, Bitget anticipates that these measures will spur demand for BGB, strengthening us as a fundamental asset in cryptocurrency. After integrating the Bitget Wallet Token (BWB), the BGB multipurpose token currently functions as a utility token within the Bitget ecosystem.</p>
