Press Release

MEXC Reports Sharp Surge In TradFi Futures Trading Volume In April, Led By 1,600% Jump In INTC

by admin May 19, 2026

written by admin

Victoria, Seychelles, May 19th, 2026, Chainwire

Data from MEXC, a pioneer in 0-fee digital asset trading, shows that TradFi futures trading volume on the platform surged sharply in April. Among all sectors, AI semiconductor-related assets recorded the strongest month-over-month growth, with some exceeding 1,600%. This closely mirrored the rally in U.S. AI chip stocks during the same period, as more users increasingly turned to crypto platforms to gain exposure to traditional financial markets.

In April, as geopolitical tensions temporarily stabilized, risk appetite in the U.S. stock market rebounded significantly. Both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 reached new all-time highs. Intel Corporation (INTC) rose roughly 50% during the month, marking its largest monthly gain in more than half a century. Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) surged 74%, becoming one of the best-performing stocks in the S&P 500. NVIDIA climbed approximately 14.4%, reclaiming the $200 level, while Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM) also strengthened alongside booming demand for AI computing power. AI and semiconductors became the dominant trading theme in the U.S. equity market throughout April.

The intensity of this rally was clearly reflected in trading activity among MEXC users. The AI semiconductor sector saw the most pronounced growth. INTC futures trading volume skyrocketed 1,684% month-over-month, AMD rose 543%, TSM gained 278%, and NVIDIA increased 213%, with all four assets posting triple-digit growth. Large-cap technology stocks and major indices also advanced strongly, with QQQ up 186%, GOOGL up 177%, and SP500 up 92%. Other assets including META (+121%), AAPL (+78%), and the NAS100 Index (+50%) also recorded significant increases.

As structural opportunities in the U.S. stock market become increasingly evident, more users are choosing to position themselves directly through familiar crypto trading platforms. Compared with traditional brokerages, crypto platforms eliminate cumbersome account-opening procedures, support both long and short Futures trading, and use stablecoins for settlement, avoiding the need to transfer funds across different financial systems. MEXC further reduces trading friction by offering zero fees on multiple Futures pairs, alongside deep liquidity and leverage of up to 100x. During the platform’s 0-Fee Fest, launched on April 15, MEXC users collectively saved more than $83 million in trading fees within just 12 trading days, with TradFi futures products contributing over $15 million of that total.

Against the backdrop of accelerating global asset rotation, demand for cross-asset allocation is rising rapidly. Currently, MEXC offers Futures pairs covering more than 130 traditional financial assets, including U.S. equities, stock indices, ETFs, precious metals, commodities, and foreign exchange products. Through a single account, users can seamlessly switch between crypto and traditional financial markets, capturing opportunities across asset classes at minimal cost.

MEXC Confirms Strong Asset Backing In Hacken-Audited May 2026 Proof Of Reserves Report

by admin May 14, 2026

written by admin

Victoria, Seychelles, May 14th, 2026, Chainwire

MEXC, a pioneer in 0-fee digital asset trading, has released its May 2026 Proof of Reserves report, independently audited by Hacken. The report confirms that all major assets are fully backed, with reserve ratios significantly exceeding the 1:1 industry standard. This demonstrates MEXC’s unwavering commitment to user asset protection.

The May report shows reserve ratios of 293% for BTC, 123% for ETH, 117% for USDT, and 120% for USDC. These ratios indicate that MEXC’s asset reserves fully cover user assets.

The May 2026 Proof of Reserves snapshot has been audited by Hacken, a globally recognized blockchain security firm, validating the Merkle Tree construction, wallet ownership, and reserve adequacy. MEXC consistently publishes a verifiable Proof of Reserves every month, setting a transparency standard for the industry and providing users with clear, verifiable asset information.

Since its founding, MEXC has placed users at the core of its operations. The regular publication of Proof of Reserves reflects its ongoing commitment to transparency and user protection. In addition, MEXC is further strengthening its multi-layered asset protection framework through the Guardian Fund initiative. The fund is set to expand from $100 million to $500 million over the next two years and includes the acquisition of 1,000 Bitcoin, forming a dual-reserve structure composed of highly liquid USDT reserves and long-term Bitcoin holdings. This structure is designed to enhance liquidity readiness and structural resilience, reinforcing asset protection across all market conditions.

Press Release

New Tokens Average At 2,341%, TradFi Futures Volume Climbs 55%: MEXC April Report

by admin May 14, 2026

written by admin

Victoria, Seychelles, May 14th, 2026, Chainwire

MEXC, a pioneer in 0-fee digital asset trading, has published its April 2026 Trading Highlights report. The top 10 new tokens averaged a 2,341% peak gain (1.6x March’s figure), new token volume per user climbed 46% month-over-month, and TradFi futures volume per user rose 55% as easing US-Iran tensions sent traders into precious metals and energy futures.

Three tokens led the highest-gain ranking, each from a different sector. PROS topped the list at +5,433% on RWA, GENIUS hit +4,718% on the DeFi track, and IPEPE combined Meme and AI for +3,500%. Neither PROS nor IPEPE appeared in the trading-volume top 10, showing that April’s outsized returns weren’t confined to the most-traded tickers.

ETH carried the active end of the market and claimed 4 of the top 10 spots by trading volume, roughly 59% of the Top 10 total. ASTEROID and FLORK kept the Meme run going on ETH, BLEND covered the reputation data layer, and AI took the decentralized AI infrastructure slot.

The remaining six tokens spread to BSC (GENIUS), ARB (CHIP), BASE (OPG), SOL (UNC and BULL), and MEZO.

On the TradFi side, US-Iran tensions eased early in the month, oil prices pulled back sharply, and rate expectations moved gold and equities. Against that backdrop, users moved beyond crypto and used the same accounts to trade commodity and equity futures.

XAUT, SILVER, USOIL, and UKOIL took the top four spots in TradFi futures volume. Precious metals XPD and PAXG also made the top ten, alongside stock indices SPX500 and JP225 and US equities TESLA and NVIDIA.

EUR took first place in TradFi spot volume with a 98% MoM jump and held 57% of Top 10 spot volume. Gold (XAUT and PAXG combined) held another 35%, so a single foreign currency and a single asset accounted for over 90% of the spot top 10.

“April was a month of recalibration,” said Vugar Usi, CEO of MEXC. “Users moved across Meme, AI infrastructure, and BTCFi within weeks, then shifted toward gold and oil futures as the geopolitical picture changed. The role of a platform like MEXC is to make those transitions fast, cost-efficient, and seamless, while ensuring the next major market narrative is already accessible when momentum begins.”

On the promotional side, Airdrop+ changed to a curated model this month and ran 14 events on new tokens, including GENIUS, MEZO, ENM, and KAG. The GENIUS event paid up to 1,000 USDT per user for basic deposit and trading tasks, a low-cost entry point for a token that hit a +4,718% peak gain during the month.

Launchpool added a BTC staking pool to its existing MX option, so holders who don’t actively trade can earn new token rewards from idle BTC. New users on EMBLEM saw APRs as high as 207% under the new design.

The full report, with detailed breakdowns of new token performance, TradFi contract rankings, and promotional activity, is available here.

$NXT Launches On OKX Boost, KuCoin, MEXC, And LBank — Bringing AI-Powered Global Entertainment To Web3

by admin May 12, 2026

written by admin

Dubai, UAE, May 12th, 2026, Chainwire

NEXST, the AI-driven entertainment infrastructure building the next generation of immersive fan engagement, today announced that its native token, $NXT, will begin trading globally on May 12, 2026 across major crypto trading platforms, including OKX Boost, KuCoin, MEXC, and LBank.

The $NXT TGE will mark the launch of the core utility asset powering the NEXST AI Entertainment ecosystem and its on-chain fan economy. By integrating immersive VR experiences featuring Tier-1 artists, Japanese idol IP-based social gaming, and AI-powered social platforms, NEXST is bringing the multi-trillion-dollar entertainment economy on-chain.

$NXT Official Listing Schedule

The $NXT token powers the NEXST AI Entertainment ecosystem — enabling AI-driven fan engagement, immersive experiences, governance, and the tokenization of next-generation entertainment economies.

Trading Begins on May 12, 2026 (UTC)

08:00 UTC OKX Boost

10:00 UTC KuCoin /MEXC /LBank

Token Information

Ticker: $NXT
Network: BNB Smart Chain
Total Supply: 600,000,000 $NXT
Circulating supply at TGE: Only 1.34% (including liquidity. No VC/investors unlock on TGE)
⁠Team lock: 12 months

Capturing the Multi-Trillion Dollar Entertainment Industry

The global entertainment and media market is currently valued at approximately $2.8 trillion, fueled largely by the passion of dedicated fanbases. However, the majority of this value has historically been captured by centralized platforms.

NEXST introduces a model that tokenizes collaborations with established K-POP artists and Japanese idol intellectual property across its AI and VR products. This approach is designed to enable fans to participate in the value generated by these collaborations, with transactions recorded on-chain to enhance transparency within the existing ecosystem.

From Fragmented Events to “Fan Continuity”

At the core of NEXST is a concept referred to as “Fan Continuity.”

Traditional fan experiences are transactional and fragmented; a concert ticket or a piece of merchandise is often a one-off purchase and involvement. NEXST redefines this journey by tokenizing every interaction. Powered by an AI-driven infrastructure, actions such as attending a VR concert, engaging with AI personas, or purchasing RWA-backed assets create persistent rights on the blockchain.

These rights persist and evolve over time, unlocking deeper value, exclusive rewards, and unique access. NEXST acts as the bridge between traditional entertainment and Web3, transforming isolated events into a lifecycle of continuous participation and ownership.

A Tangible On-Chain Economy for Entertainment

NEXST distinguishes itself through a suite of products backed by global IP partnerships:

Immersive VR & Social Gaming: High-fidelity VR experiences with popular K-POP idols and interactive social games featuring Japanese idol IPs.
AI Social Media & Prediction Markets: A next-generation platform where creators and fans interact through AI-generated content and engage in prediction markets.
RWA (Real World Asset) Integration: Tokenizing physical assets like artist trading cards to provide fans with verifiable ownership and secondary market liquidity.

The Dawn of a New Global Fandom

The listing of $NXT on OKX Boost, KuCoin, MEXC, and LBank marks a pivotal milestone in scaling the “Fan Continuity” vision. As the infrastructure matures and its presence expands across these premier global exchanges, fans worldwide will finally have the tools to transform their enthusiasm into a measurable, liquid asset, ushering in a new era of the AI-driven creator economy.

About NEXST

NEXST is an AI-driven entertainment infrastructure that tokenizes the full spectrum of fan experiences. By bridging traditional entertainment with Web3 through its proprietary “Fan Continuity” framework, NEXST ensures that fan engagement creates persistent rights and unlocks long-term value, empowering fans to become true stakeholders in the entertainment world.
