<a href="https://www.mexc.com" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MEXC</a>, a pioneer in 0-fee digital asset trading, today released its Ecosystem &amp; Growth Report for the second quarter of 2026. In Q1, users mostly bought gold and other hedges against macro risk. In Q2, their attention turned to AI projects and US stocks, and MEXC spent the quarter building products for exactly that demand.
Users can now back a company before its IPO,<a href="https://www.mexc.com/learn/article/how-to-trade-stock-futures-on-mexc/1" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> trade stock futures</a> on it, hold tokenized shares, and buy real US stocks and ETFs, all inside one MEXC account. Every piece of that path launched or grew during the quarter.
SpaceX was still a private company when MEXC ran two SPACEX(PRE) subscription rounds. More than 74,000 entries put over 173 million USDT into them, and demand for the second round reached more than 30 times the amount on offer. That demand mirrors a wider market trend:<a href="https://www.coingecko.com/research/publications/tradfi-on-crypto-exchanges-report-2026" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> CoinGecko reports</a> that tokenized pre-IPO trading volume surged 1,060%, with SpaceX accounting for the largest share of activity.
The company then completed the largest IPO on record on June 12. Users kept trading it on MEXC after the listing, and SpaceX perpetual futures collected more than 7.1 billion USDT in volume in the weeks that followed. One name went from private to public within a quarter, and users traded at every stage.
<a href="https://www.mexc.com/campaigns/Stocks" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">RealStocks</a> launched on June 1 and added the last piece, real shares. Eligible users buy actual US stocks and ETFs through a licensed securities broker partner, and the shelf covers more than 7,000 names.
More than 120,000 users signed up in the first month, and over half of the new accounts moved on to a first deposit. By June 18, the product had settled dividends on 34 stocks and ETFs, the kind of payout only real share ownership carries.
Micron's June earnings lifted trading volume in its MEXC futures by approximately 142% in a single day. The activity spilled into related AI memory names, SanDisk, SK hynix, and a DRAM ETF. One earnings report moved a whole supply chain on the platform, because users now trade US market news the moment it breaks.
<blockquote>"My first quarter as CEO had one goal, and that was to move MEXC from a crypto exchange toward a gateway for every market users care about," said Vugar Usi, CEO of MEXC. "Q2 put real numbers behind the word gateway, from Pre-IPO demand to actual dividend payouts."
</blockquote>
The quarter's ten biggest new-token gainers averaged +4,956%, and six of the ten were AI agent projects. Only one meme coin made the list, a clear reversal of the first quarter, when memes ran the gain rankings.
The AI winners build practical systems. They settle transactions between agents, place trades for retail users, and verify identities, so the money went to projects that already do that work. The most-traded list leaned the same way, with four AI and infrastructure names to three meme names.
During the quarter, MEXC appointed Vugar Usi as Chief Executive Officer and marked its 8th anniversary with a brand upgrade built on two promises:<a href="https://www.mexc.com/0fee-infinite" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> 0 Fees and Infinite Opportunities</a>. The upgrade marks the company's move from a traditional exchange toward a universal gateway for global markets.
A partnership brought the USD1 stablecoin into MEXC's trading and product suite, and the first USD1 event drew more than 161,000 participants, with new users alone pushing $2.4 billion through futures. A TradingView integration now sends perpetual futures orders straight from the chart, so users move from analysis to execution without a tab change.
<a href="https://prediction.mexc.com/prediction-markets/all" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">The Prediction Market</a> added a Combo feature on June 9, which folds several event predictions into a single position. Average daily volume in the Prediction Market grew more than 6,700% from early to late June, and daily users rose more than 3,200%.
The June<a href="https://www.mexc.com/proof-of-reserve" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> Proof of Reserves</a> put the average reserve ratio at 156.5%, which means the platform holds more assets than users have deposited, with Bitcoin backed at 269%. Between May and June, the risk team identified 4,394 illicit networks; a separate intervention effort blocked roughly 303,000 USDT in suspected fraudulent transfers.
