HTX 2025 Mid-Year Report Shows 14 User Growth 17 Trading Volume Rise

HTX, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange, has unveiled its mid-year 2025 performance, showcasing continued growth in both user base and trading volume amid challenging macroeconomic and regulatory conditions. The exchange reported that its user base surpassed 50 million as of June 2025, representing a 14% increase compared to the previous year. Additionally, trading volume rose by 17% year-over-year, with a 11% increase in the number of traders during the first half of 2025[1]. HTX was the only Top 10 exchange to register positive trading volume growth in Q1 2025, despite a broadly weak market environment[1].

To highlight these achievements, HTX held a livestreamed strategy session on July 22, led by Molly, a prominent figure in the HTX DAO ecosystem. The session reviewed the exchange’s performance and outlined key initiatives for the remainder of the year. HTX emphasized its long-term vision of establishing a decentralized, transparent “People’s Exchange,” while HTX DAO is advancing toward a governance model driven by the community[1].

A key strategic focus for HTX DAO in the second half of the year is token-based empowerment, which includes decentralizing governance and incentivizing community participation. New initiatives such as a DAO Treasury System and an On-Chain Point-Based Reward System are being introduced to distribute trading fees into a community-managed fund and reward user engagement through token airdrops[1]. Molly emphasized that these mechanisms aim to redefine the relationship between users and the platform in the Web3 era.

Alongside governance improvements, HTX is prioritizing product innovation to enhance the trading experience. In Q3 2025, the exchange plans to roll out a comprehensive upgrade across 20+ products, including spot, margin, and futures trading, with a focus on improved user experience, visual design, and seamless order execution[1].

HTX’s token listing framework is grounded in three core criteria: strong community demand, a proven team, and clear tokenomics. The exchange has supported projects such as $CFX through its strong liquidity and active user base. Justin Sun, a global advisor, plays a key role in supporting HTX’s leadership, ensuring fairness and transparency in the listing process[1]. Strict quality thresholds and safeguards are in place to prevent manipulation or rigging of the token recommendation system.

HTX, founded in 2013, has grown from a virtual asset exchange into a comprehensive blockchain ecosystem spanning trading, financial derivatives, research, investments, and incubation. Operating under the strategic pillars of “Global Expansion, Thriving Ecosystem, Wealth Effect, Security & Compliance,” HTX aims to provide secure and reliable services to virtual asset enthusiasts worldwide[1].
