Bitget Token Could Crash To $0 After $351M Hack as AlphaPepe Emerges as the Next Crypto To Explode

Bitget's $351M breach pressures BGB, not a proven fall to zero, as AlphaPepe draws presale attention.
Bitget Faces a Confidence Test
Bitget said unauthorized transfers on September 24 affected approximately $351.6 million in assets from parts of its hot and warm wallet systems. The company temporarily halted withdrawals while deposits and trading continued. Chief executive Gracy Chen said customer balances were accurate and Bitget's protection fund, reported at more than $464 million, could cover the loss.
Customers still need withdrawals restored and a clear account of what happened. That is the real confidence test, not a frightening price prediction. Bitget has said a fuller incident report is coming, and until then the story is still developing. BGB was not among the stolen assets listed overnight; the reported loss was not $351 million in BGB.
BGB traded around $1.97 early Friday, down about 3.3% over 24 hours. Much BGB trading happens on Bitget, so the reaction after withdrawals remains an important test.
Why Retail Is Looking Earlier
AlphaPepe https://www.alphapepe.io/ has a product to examine before its token reaches an exchange. Buyers can try the interface instead of judging its AI DEX only from a roadmap. That matters because a token scanner or market briefing is useful only when it fits into the way someone actually trades. An accessible tool lets retail make that judgment before a listing turns every conversation toward price.
The current presale sits in Stage 20 at $0.03111 under the figures supplied by the team. When that allocation closes, the next tier moves higher for the same base token amount. Today's fixed quote differs from whatever price open-market buyers will face. There is still a launch to execute and a market to build, but the Stage 20 price is a decision buyers can examine right now. Later buyers will have a chart; they will not have this tier.
AlphaPepe reports more than $2.79 million raised and over 12,000 holders. That gives AlphaSwap an early audience. The team says the sale closes with a DEX launch in Q1 2027 and cites a 10/10 BlockSAFU audit and a Coinsult audit. Contract checks cannot prevent every trading loss. They do, however, give buyers documents to inspect when evaluating ALPE itself. In the wake of a security incident elsewhere, it is worth separating a contract review from protection against an exchange breach.
Bitget's breach concerns exchange wallet infrastructure. AlphaSwap's tools help users find context before a swap. They address different risks, so ALPE's case rests on its own product and execution.
Could BGB Fall to $0?
Today's evidence does not support a prediction that BGB is headed to zero. It traded near $1.97 after the breach, and Bitget says its protection fund covers the loss. The test is what happens when withdrawals resume.
A harsher selloff remains possible if confidence deteriorates or promised protections disappoint. BGB could also stabilize if Bitget restores withdrawals and demonstrates it has contained the breach. Watch those developments rather than treating the headline as proof of a collapse. The fact that BGB was not reported among the stolen assets is another reason not to confuse damage to Bitget's wallets with a direct theft of every token tied to the exchange.
A Scare Is Not a Signal
BGB holders are dealing with an active exchange incident. Some Bitget customers cannot yet withdraw. AlphaPepe buyers can inspect AlphaSwap now, before ALPE has a public trading price. Stage 20 offers an entry to a live trading workflow before the tier ends. Waiting for a public chart means forgoing today's presale terms. BGB at $0 is a fear, not today's price. Retail can examine AlphaSwap now, before ALPE gets a public chart and Stage 20 closes.

FAQs
Did BGB fall to $0 after the hack?
No. BGB was around $1.97 early Friday after news of the breach. Its next move depends partly on Bitget's investigation and the return of withdrawals.
What can people use from AlphaPepe now?
AlphaSwap Early Access is live. Users can examine its swap interface, while eligible ALPE holders can explore AI market features before the token lists.
What is AlphaPepe's current price?
The Stage 20 presale figure supplied is $0.03111 per ALPE. That fixed tier changes when its allocation closes, ahead of public trading.
