Bitget Launches Community Product Officer Program With Up to 3,000 USDT in Rewards

Bitget Launches Community Product Officer Program With Up to 3,000 USDT in Rewards VICTORIA, Seychelles, June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has launched the Bitget Community Product Officer Program, a new initiative designed to bring users closer to the product development process and create a direct channel between the community and Bitget’s product teams. Built around, “You speak, we build,” the program invites users to share feedback, test features, submit ideas, ultimately helping shape future product development across the Bitget ecosystem.

Running from June 15 to June 26, the first phase of the program encourages participants to contribute product suggestions, experience reports, strategy-sharing content, and feature feedback. Contributions will be evaluated based on originality, product value, practical insights, and potential impact on the user experience.

Participants will compete for a range of rewards, including three Star Product Experience Officer awards worth between 1,000 and 3,000 USDT each. Additional prizes include Best Product Ideas awards worth 100 USDT each, Best Product Experience Report awards worth 50 USDT each, and Best Strategy Sharing awards worth 20 USDT each. Community participants will also be eligible for random airdrops, merchandise and contribution rewards throughout the campaign.

“Some of the best product ideas come from the people using the platform every day because they’re the ones experiencing the friction firsthand,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. “Crypto has always been built on participation, and some of the strongest products in this industry are shaped through open dialogue with the community. The Community Product Officer Program creates a direct channel for users to share ideas, challenge assumptions and be part of building a better platform together.”

Beyond cash rewards, the initiative creates a long term pathway for community members to contribute directly to Bitget’s product evolution. Through Bitget Fan Club, the company has already seen how engaged users can help strengthen communities, surface valuable feedback and improve the user experience. The Community Product Officer Program builds on that foundation by creating a closer connection between users and product teams, giving contributors greater opportunities to shape the features and tools they want to see on the platform.

The launch reflects Bitget’s continued focus on community-led innovation as the platform expands across crypto, tokenized assets, equities, commodities, AI-powered trading tools, and multi-asset services. By opening more of the product development process to users, Bitget aims to strengthen the connection between product builders and the communities they serve.

The Bitget Community Product Officer Program is now open to eligible participants worldwide.

Nyxoah’s Genio® Wins Prix Galien UK 2026 Award for Best Medical Technology

Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium – June 15, 2026, 10:05 pm CET / 04:05 pm ET – Nyxoah SA (Euronext Brussels/Nasdaq: NYXH) (“Nyxoah” or the “Company”), a medical technology company focused on developing innovative solutions for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), today announced that Genio®, its hypoglossal nerve stimulation therapy for OSA, was awarded the Prix Galien UK 2026 Award for Best Medical Technology at a ceremony held in London.

The Prix Galien Award is widely regarded as one of the highest honors in healthcare innovation, recognizing technologies that deliver meaningful advances in patient care and outcomes. The award recognizes Genio’s contribution to the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, a chronic condition affecting millions of people and associated with increased risks of cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders, impaired quality of life and excessive daytime sleepiness.

“What makes this recognition particularly special is that it reflects the efforts of so many people behind the scenes. From the engineers who developed the technology, to our UK team and staff supporting patients, to the physicians implanting the therapy and the patients who placed their trust in us, this achievement belongs to all of them,” said Olivier Taelman, Chief Executive Officer.

Nyxoah also wishes to acknowledge the clinicians, healthcare professionals and patients who have supported the development, evaluation and adoption of Genio around the world. In the United Kingdom, the award reflects the commitment of a growing team working alongside NHS and private healthcare partners to expand access to innovative treatment options for patients living with Obstructive Sleep Apnea.

The award comes during a period of significant momentum for Nyxoah. Following FDA approval and the commercial launch of Genio in the United States, the Company recently secured new financing to accelerate its U.S. expansion, while adoption of Genio continues to grow across Europe and other international markets.

About Nyxoah

Nyxoah is a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative solutions to treat OSA. Nyxoah’s lead solution is the Genio system, a patient-centered, leadless and battery-free hypoglossal neurostimulation therapy for OSA, the world’s most common sleep disordered breathing condition that is associated with increased mortality risk and cardiovascular comorbidities. Nyxoah is driven by the vision that OSA patients should enjoy restful nights and feel enabled to live their life to its fullest.

Following the successful completion of the BLAST OSA study, the Genio system received its European CE Mark in 2019. Nyxoah completed two successful IPOs: on Euronext Brussels in September 2020 and NASDAQ in July 2021. Following the positive outcomes of the BETTER SLEEP study, Nyxoah received CE mark approval for the expansion of its therapeutic indications to Complete Concentric Collapse (CCC) patients, currently contraindicated in competitors’ therapy. Additionally, the Company announced positive outcomes from the DREAM IDE pivotal study and receipt of approval from the FDA for a subset of adult patients with moderate to severe OSA with an AHI of greater than or equal to 15 and less than or equal to 65.
