VICTORIA, Seychelles, October 22, 2025 – Global cryptocurrency exchange MEXC has released its Q3 2025 Ecosystem & Growth Report, revealing strong momentum across listings, user engagement, security, and ecosystem expansion — reinforcing its reputation as one of the fastest-growing and most innovation-driven digital asset exchanges worldwide.
Despite global market volatility and tighter liquidity conditions, MEXC reported significant growth across all key metrics, reflecting its strategic focus on accessibility, transparency, and investor empowerment.
Record Growth in Listings and Trading Activity
In the third quarter of 2025, MEXC added 680 new tokens, marking a 17% quarter-on-quarter increase. Trading volume on these new listings surged 97%, while the number of active traders rose 16%.
The spot market remained particularly strong — with the top 10 tokens by trading volume achieving an average 2,933% peak gain, and the top 10 by highest gain posting an extraordinary average peak increase of 10,887%.
Among standout performers were $STBL (+12,125%), $C (+2,100%), and $AIA (+532%), driven by themes such as AI + Web3, Perpetual DEXs, and stablecoin protocols. The BSC ecosystem led the way, contributing six of the top 10 tokens by growth and producing an average return of 9,054%, while the Ethereum and Base ecosystems showed robust activity across Layer-2 and DeFi derivative projects.
According to MEXC, its rapid listing process, zero-fee trading incentives, and high-liquidity support have been key differentiators, allowing users to participate in new asset narratives earlier and more efficiently than on other exchanges.
Expanding Ecosystem Through Strategic Investments
Beyond trading performance, MEXC Ventures, the exchange’s investment arm, expanded its commitment to the decentralized finance (DeFi) space. In Q3, it made a US$30 million strategic investment in Ethena (ENA) — the governance token of the Ethena protocol — bringing total investment in the ecosystem to US$66 million.
This aligns with MEXC’s broader goal of supporting foundational liquidity layers and advancing a more decentralized financial infrastructure.
Product Innovation and User Empowerment
Innovation remained at the centre of MEXC’s growth. The exchange’s Airdrop+ program launched 272 campaigns, an 86% QoQ increase, distributing over US$16.6 million in rewards to more than 160,000 participants. Its Launchpad platform hosted 11 premium token events, raising US$31.3 million with participation from 127,000 users.
MEXC also rolled out AI-powered trading tools — including the AI Select List for smart token recommendations, AI News Radar for market trend detection, and the MEXC-AI Bot for personalised insights.
Meanwhile, Stock Futures trading peaked at US$81.4 million in 24 hours, and the Multi-Asset Margin Pool introduced cross-token collateralisation for 14 digital assets, improving risk management and capital efficiency for traders.
Reinforcing Security and Compliance Leadership
In Q3, MEXC strengthened its global reputation for security and transparency. Its Proof of Reserves confirmed full collateralisation across major assets — BTC (129.85%), ETH (104.05%), USDT (113.23%), and USDC (105.74%) — reaffirming user fund protection and operational integrity.
The platform’s Futures Insurance Fund reached a record US$559 million, while 48 fraud cases were intercepted and over 19,000 suspicious accounts restricted. These measures earned MEXC recognition at the 3rd International Counter-Fraud Conference (ICFC 2025) in Seoul, where it showcased new cross-border anti-money laundering (AML) frameworks developed in partnership with compliance firm Transight.
Global Community and Corporate Responsibility
MEXC also advanced its corporate social responsibility (CSR) and community-building efforts in Q3. The MEXC Foundation organised eight CSR events across Vietnam, the UAE, Nigeria, the Philippines, India, and Australia, reaching more than 1,600 participants.
Its Blockchain Certificate Quiz Program trained 725 participants, with 334 earning blockchain literacy credentials — part of MEXC’s broader goal to democratise access to crypto education.
The exchange also maintained a strong presence at major global events, serving as Platinum Sponsor of TOKEN2049 Singapore, Diamond Sponsor of GM Vietnam 2025, and Titanium Sponsor of Blockchain Rio, attended by more than 10,000 participants.
