VICTORIA, Seychelles, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MEXC, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange, has reported a notable increase in trading activity following the launch of its Zero-Fee Trading Campaign in the first quarter of 2025. The program aimed to remove fees from particular futures trading pairs while simultaneously boosting user interaction and substantial growth throughout essential platform metrics.

During the first three months of the year, the platform witnessed an increase of 17.8% in monthly active traders and a 170.2% surge in trading volume, driven by the introduction of popular trading pairs such as SOL/USDT, HYPE/USDT, and S/USDT. These listings matched user preferences and overall market trends, reinforcing MEXC’s position as a leader in both exchange performance and liquidity depth.

Top Performing Pairs: SOL/USDT and ADA/USDT

The campaign’s most active trading pairs included SOL/USDT together with DOGE/USDT, ADA/USDT, TRUMPOFFICIAL/USDT and SUI/USDT.

SOL/USDT achieved the highest trading volume increase of 185.62%, comprising 19% of total futures trading volume and becoming the leading pair of the quarter. ADA/USDT showed outstanding growth through a 369.44% increase in trading volume accompanied by a 393.05% increase in daily average share, highlighting the effectiveness of zero fees in boosting interest for promising assets.

• DOGE/USDT (+283%)
• SOL/USDT (+209%)
• ADA/USDT (+186%)
• HYPE/USDT (+165%)

A Breakthrough in Campaign Performance and Exchange Leadership

During Q1 2025, the Zero Trading Fee Campaign established MEXC as a leading force behind market volume and activity for both well-known and up-and-coming tokens. MEXC achieved wider trader participation and increased liquidity by eliminating fees on popular trading pairs.

The campaign’s success is attributed to precise timing, well-chosen trading pairs, and a clear, simplified fee structure — rather than external incentives or large-scale marketing. These results suggest that subtle adjustments to cost structures can have an outsized impact on user engagement and trading dynamics.

MEXC continues to evaluate the results of the initiative and explore further opportunities to enhance user experience in the upcoming quarters.

HONG KONG, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — IDA, a Hong Kong-based fintech company, and AUDC Pty Ltd have announced a strategic collaboration to launch a Hong Kong–Australia stablecoin-based cross-border trade initiative. This initiative aims to transform trade between Hong Kong and Australia by introducing faster, more transparent, cost-effective cross-border payment systems.

Building on the strong trade relationship established under the Australia-Hong Kong Free Trade Agreement (A-HKFTA), this collaboration leverages Hong Kong’s role as a vital gateway connecting mainland China with the world. The agreement, A-HKFTA, which underscores Hong Kong’s high degree of autonomy under the ‘One Country, Two Systems’ framework, provides a solid foundation for this innovative initiative.

In 2023, Australia and Hong Kong had a total trade value of US$5.3 billion^[1]. Total exports from Hong Kong to Australia amounted to US$3.4 billion, with the bulk of re‑exported goods originating from mainland China. Hong Kong’s imports from Australia in 2023 amounted to US$1.9 billion worth of Australian merchandise, including agricultural produce, seafood, and beverages. Looking ahead, Hong Kong aims to drive growth in emerging industries such as biomedical technology, green energy, and financial technology.

Sean Lee, Co-Founder of IDA, emphasized the significance of this partnership: “This collaboration builds on the progress made in bilateral trade relationships. Recent diplomatic efforts between Hong Kong, China, and Australia have reduced trade barriers, creating an ideal environment for innovative solutions like stablecoins to modernize trade systems. The potential for stablecoin technology to enhance efficiency and unlock opportunities across industries is enormous.”

Effie Dimitropoulos, CEO of AUDC Pty Ltd, expressed her enthusiasm for the initiative: “At AUDC Pty Ltd, our mission is to deliver secure and compliant digital payment solutions to support global trade. Our Australian Dollar-backed stablecoin, AUDD, addresses inefficiencies in cross-border trade, offering businesses in Australia, Hong Kong, and beyond a faster and more transparent settlement mechanism. This collaboration is a pivotal step toward modernizing trade settlements and unlocking new growth opportunities for industries on both sides.”
