Looks like a surface level crack only. I have seen a few SG/kooks with similar cracks. For now I'll suggest put fibre glass tape to cover the bottom surface .

From my perspective, not much you can do. And it won't hurt the bat too much, being level and down low. You would do more damage and harm trying to pry it open and glue it.

Tape and don't use the toe too much ;-)

Without a side pics can't see the depth of damage based on the pic I would  leave it or as suggested apply fibre glass.

If youre really worried superglue it.
I'd leave that personally as it looks to be superficial

These cracks wont harm your bat as it can occur even when you are knocking the edges and toes..as suggested by others put the protective sheet and it shld be fine.
