MEXC Expands Solana Ecosystem Role at APAC Summit 2025

MEXC, a prominent cryptocurrency exchange, is making a significant push into the Solana ecosystem by hosting the keynote speech and serving as the main sponsor at the Solana Summit APAC 2025. This event, taking place from June 5–7 in Da Nang, marks a strategic move by MEXC to position itself as a leading player in the Solana community. The summit will feature interactive campaigns, insightful panel discussions, and a VC Demo Day, all aimed at showcasing MEXC's commitment to the Solana ecosystem and its ambition to become a powerhouse in the region.

MEXC's involvement in the Solana Summit APAC 2025 goes beyond mere sponsorship. The exchange is embedding itself directly into the SOL builder community, rolling out strategic ecosystem campaigns following the summit. These campaigns will support emerging Solana-based projects, provide launchpad opportunities for early-stage protocols, and offer cross-platform liquidity incentives between MEXC and Solana dApps. By doing so, MEXC aims to position itself as the primary exchange partner for Solana-based innovation in the region.

One of the highlights of MEXC's presence at the summit is the Treasure Hunt Activation, an original onsite engagement campaign. Participants can find five different MEXC-branded stickers hidden throughout the summit, each with a QR code. Those who find all five stickers can redeem an exclusive co-branded product at the MEXC booth. This campaign combines offline and online interaction, encouraging participants to engage with MEXC's social channels and fostering a blend of IRL brand presence and Web3 culture.

MEXC's thought leadership will also be on display during the summit. On June 5, Yuky Tran, COO of MEXC Vietnam, will join a panel discussion on the roles of DEXs and launchpads in protecting retail investors from scams. This session comes at a time when rug pulls and exploit incidents are surging, and user trust in DeFi is being put to the test. Tran's presence on this panel reflects MEXC's proactive role in DeFi security conversations and its intent to shape regulatory and operational best practices across APAC.

On the final day of the summit, MEXC Ventures' Head of Listing, YY, will participate in a curated VC Demo Day focused on DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks). This closed-door event will bring together blockchain infrastructure startups, Solana ecosystem leaders, and Web2 firms in AI, IoT, XR, logistics, and energy. MEXC's participation signals its intent to be more than just an exchange—it's becoming an active enabler of blockchain's real-world evolution.

MEXC's broader strategy at the summit includes onboarding new developers to Solana via workshops and MEXC integration, listing more SOL-based tokens, particularly in DePIN, GameFi, and RWA (real-world asset) sectors, and launching APAC-focused accelerator programs in Q3 2025. With a user base of over 40 million across 170+ countries, MEXC is uniquely positioned to connect regional talent with global exposure. Its low-fee structure, wide token range, and user-friendly mobile experience make it a preferred on-ramp for new crypto entrants in Asia.

Solana's resurgence in 2025, buoyed by faster transactions and a growing developer base, is creating fresh momentum. However, ecosystem maturity doesn't come from protocol improvements alone—it demands trusted infrastructure, liquidity support, and community trust. By aligning closely with Solana at the APAC Summit, MEXC is boosting its relevance in the high-growth Southeast Asian crypto market, embedding itself as a “first-choice” exchange for new Solana projects, and helping bridge retail users, developers, and protocols under one trusted platform. As crypto adoption accelerates across the region, MEXC's bets on Solana and DePIN could shape the next frontier of decentralized infrastructure across Asia.
