In May, MEXC listed 214 new tokens, representing a 33.7% month-on-month increase and marking one of its most active listing periods to date. Trading volume associated with these new listings surged by 46.7%, while average trading volume per user increased by 45.09%. According to CoinMarketCap, MEXC’s total daily trading volume reached $4.1 billion, positioning it as the second-largest platform by trading volume among major crypto exchanges.
The top 10 newly listed tokens on MEXC in May averaged 2,300.95% in peak gains. Sectors such as AI, GameFi, and meme coins were among the strongest performers. The AI infrastructure token AGT posted a peak gain of 3,770.10%, closely followed by blockchain gaming project NXPC at 3,756.30%, and the PayFi protocol HUMA, which saw a 1,170.00% increase.
Meme coins continued to be a major force, particularly those from the Solana and BNB Chain ecosystems. GOONC surged 3,400%, B gained 3,001.20%, and MOONPIG rallied 753.33%, highlighting the ongoing influence of meme communities in driving liquidity and market excitement.
User incentives were also a focal point for MEXC in May. The exchange hosted 58 Airdrop+ campaigns, more than double the number from April, with a combined prize pool exceeding 3 million USDT and nearly 40,000 users participating. Notable campaigns included AIOT, which attracted over 7,000 participants with an average value of approximately 320 USDT per user, and HUMA, where users received 100 USDT in tokens followed by a 1,170% gain.
Launchpool events remained popular, with the ICEBERG pool offering an 8,488.44% APR. The ongoing EIN Launchpool, open until 17 July, continues to attract users due to its high rewards and relatively low participation.
MEXC, founded in 2018, serves over 40 million users across more than 170 countries. The exchange is known for its broad selection of trending tokens, regular airdrop opportunities, and low trading fees. The platform aims to support both new traders and experienced investors, offering secure and efficient access to digital assets, with a focus on simplicity and innovation.
