Bitget Bull Run Manila Draws More Than 100 Web3 Builders

Web3 company Bitget shared that it has partnered with Founders Running Club for an early morning community run in Metro Manila on April 26, 2025

Web3 company Bitget partnered with Founders Running Club for an early morning community run in Metro Manila called the “Bitget Bull Run.”

The event, which took place on April 26, 2025, at 6 AM at Bridgetowne in Quezon City, drew more than 100 web3 builders and runners for a unique crypto meetup that combined fitness and networking.

“We’ve partnered with football clubs, fight sports, and now runners because crypto adoption should happen where people already are,” said Vugar Usi Zade, Chief Operating Officer of Bitget. “Though I have to say, when our team told me crypto traders actually showed up for a 6 AM run, that was the most surprising bull market signal I’ve heard all year.”

After the run, participants gathered at Single Origin Café in Opus Mall for coffee and casual networking.

This partnership marks another step in Bitget's broader strategy to integrate crypto into everyday life, aligning with its mission to make digital assets accessible to the masses.

Earlier this year, Bitget announced a strategic partnership with SWEAT, a move-to-earn platform, to introduce a new way to engage people with crypto through physical activity.

The partnership, which was launched at the Dubai Esports Festival 2025, will see the pair integrate technologies to enable users to earn crypto rewards for their physical activity, turning simple exercise into digital ownership.

The collaboration will also include innovations like SWEAT’s AI movement coach Mia and expanded multi-chain wallet features.

This initiative follows Bitget's commitment to supporting community engagement and fostering a positive impact in the Philippines.

In April, Bitget launched its Starlink Program in Siargao to provide remote schools with high-speed satellite internet.

The program aims to improve education access and lay the groundwork for future blockchain adoption and financial inclusion in underserved Philippine communities.

The web3 company also hosted the “PayFi Event” on the same island to promote crypto payments in tourism.

Following its success, the company plans to expand the initiative to other top Philippine destinations like Palawan, La Union, Dumaguete, and Boracay.

On May 24, to mark the 15th anniversary of the first real-world Bitcoin transaction, Bitget and other organizations are hosting their own $BTC Pizza Day events this month.

Bitget Wallet and Morph will hold “Bitcoin Pizza Day: A Slice of History” in Taguig, featuring community discussions, crypto insights, and plenty of pizza.
