MEXC Ventures Invests $200M in Triv to Expand Southeast Asia Crypto Presence

MEXC Ventures, the investment arm of global cryptocurrency exchange MEXC, has completed a strategic investment in Triv, one of Indonesia’s leading and most established crypto exchanges, at a $200 million valuation [1]. The move aligns with MEXC’s broader mission to support innovation in the blockchain space and to strengthen its presence in the rapidly growing Southeast Asian digital asset market [2]. Triv, founded in 2015, is recognized for its robust compliance framework, operating under the regulatory oversight of both Indonesia’s Financial Services Authority (OJK) and Commodity Futures Trading Regulatory Agency (BAPPEBTI) [3]. It offers a diverse range of services, including spot trading, staking, and futures, and serves over 3 million registered users, providing access to more than 1,000 crypto assets [4].

The investment will enable Triv to enhance its liquidity, expand its coin offerings, and introduce new products for both retail and institutional users. According to Gabriel Rey, CEO and Founder of Triv, the partnership with MEXC will support Triv’s growth ambitions and strengthen its media platform, CryptoWave Media, as a leading voice in Indonesia’s crypto ecosystem [5]. MEXC Ventures, led by Investment Director Leo Zhao, emphasized that Indonesia is a dynamic market with strong regulatory clarity and a growing user base, making it an ideal location for strategic expansion [6]. The investment also reflects MEXC’s commitment to supporting long-term initiatives with clear growth potential rather than just short-term gains [7].

Southeast Asia, with over 650 million people and a rapidly digitizing economy, has become a focal point for global crypto players seeking new markets. By backing Triv, MEXC is positioning itself to leverage Indonesia’s regulatory environment and user adoption to further its regional influence. The partnership is expected to enhance cross-border crypto activities and provide local users with greater access to digital assets, including U.S. stock products and memecoins [8]. This move is part of MEXC Ventures’ broader strategy to diversify geographically and invest in high-growth markets that align with its long-term development goals [9].

MEXC Ventures operates as a comprehensive fund dedicated to driving innovation in the crypto sector through investments, M&A, and incubation. The fund has previously invested in platforms such as TON and Aptos, and continues to prioritize initiatives with strong ecosystem-building potential. Through this investment, MEXC is reinforcing its role as a trendsetter in the global digital asset industry, combining its technological resources with Triv’s established market presence in Indonesia [10].
