Bitget’s 2026 Anti-Scam Report Warns AI Is Supercharging Digital Asset Fraud

As the global cryptocurrency market expands, investors are increasingly trading across multiple asset classes, but fraud schemes are also becoming more sophisticated. Criminal groups have moved beyond scams confined to a single platform, evolving their operations into cross-platform, multistage social-engineering traps. Fraud prevention has therefore become critical to the digital asset industry’s healthy development and to protecting user assets, drawing close market attention to the latest anti-scam trends.

Cryptocurrency exchange Bitget said in a report released in June 2026 that AI is making scams more scalable and harder to detect. From July 2025 through June 2026, the platform blocked more than 150 million malicious requests and helped users recover about $32.3 million in assets lost to scams.
