MEXC Embraces Stock Trading Frenzy With Zero-Fee Futures
The post MEXC Embraces Stock Trading Frenzy With Zero-Fee Futures appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
MEXC has launched zero-fee stock futures tracking nine popular U.S. stocks, joining crypto platforms bridging traditional equities with digital trading. Cryptocurrency exchange MEXC has launched a new Stock Futures product, offering zero trading fees and zero funding fees for stock trading, as more crypto trading platforms aim to attract users by bridging traditional markets with cryptocurrency. In a press release shared with The Defiant, MEXC said the product includes nine U.S. stock pairs — COIN, HOOD, NVDA, AAPL, AMZN, GOOGL, META, TSLA, and MCD — all tradable using Tether’s USDT stablecoin. MEXC’s Stock Futures allow bi-directional trading with up to 5x leverage, letting users open long or short positions and operate during Nasdaq and NYSE trading hours. Tracy Jin, chief operating officer at MEXC, said the launch of Stock Futures is a “major step toward our vision of making crypto truly useful.” “By lowering barriers, reducing costs, and optimizing the trading experience, we aim to empower more users to break through traditional finance constraints and access high-quality investment products,” Jin added. The move comes amid growing interest in tokenized shares across crypto exchanges. In late June, Robinhood launched tokenized versions of over 200 U.S. stocks and ETFs for European customers, offering commission-free trading. Although these tokens track the prices of the underlying stocks, they do not grant shareholder rights. Bybit and Kraken also joined the hype train by offering tokenized shares of U.S. stocks and ETFs to non-U.S. clients via xStocks, while the actual securities are held in custody by a third-party firm. Meanwhile, Coinbase is seeking approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to offer tokenized stock trading directly in the U.S., rather than relying on unregulated or offshore structures.
