What HTX gives you
The terminal is strong on contracts, but HTX has its own ground: A 2013 veteran with a record-low exit: 0.001 per USDT on BTT, lower than anyone else we cover. Just under six hundred spot pairs, perpetual contracts, P2P in dozens of currencies, Earn savings and staking, Primepool for new coins and copy trading; thirteen networks to choose from.
Where HTX is strong

Copy trading is the centrepiece here, more developed than on most, with statistics and trader rankings. There are spot bots, Wealth savings, P2P and cheap withdrawals — 0.01 on Aptos.

What decides it
Fees, withdrawals and limits: where the gap shows
- Age. HTX has run since 2013, BingX since 2018 — a gap of 5 years. It guarantees nothing on its own, but the older venue has been through more market cycles.
- Jurisdiction. HTX sits in Seychelles, BingX in Singapore. It shapes both the checks you pass and what the venue has to disclose.
- Native tokens. HTX has HTX, BingX has —: holders usually get fee discounts and access to launches.
- Strengths side by side. HTX: the cheapest USDT withdrawal we cover, a broad P2P, running since 2013; BingX: mature copy trading, 990+ perpetuals, cheap withdrawals.
- Which job. HTX is for anyone who moves coins between venues often, while BingX is for anyone trading futures and mirroring other traders.
- Worth remembering. HTX: the spot fee is above the average here — keep it in your maths. BingX: a moderate spot listing — rare coins are usually found elsewhere.

What people ask most
Questions about HTX
HTX: Why did Huobi become HTX? A 2023 rebrand. The name changed, but the venue itself is still one of the oldest on the market — it has run since 2013.
HTX: How large is the HTX token discount? On spot, 25%: the base 0.20% becomes 0.15%. On contracts the discount is smaller, up to 10%. A separate discount card does not automatically stack with the token discount.
HTX: Is there P2P here? Yes, with the exchange holding escrow: while a trade runs, the seller's coins stay frozen.
Questions about BingX
BingX: How can a VIP tier be reached faster? Besides volume, the venue accepts proof of status from another exchange, a trading history and asset value — that route can lift a user two tiers at once. A temporary pass grants a tier for a trial period.
BingX: How is copy trading here different? In how it is presented: BingX builds a public feed around trades where you can follow traders without copying them. The statistics are open — return, drawdown, style and history are all visible.
BingX: Are there trading bots? Yes, grid strategies on spot are configured right in the interface, with no third-party service.
Both at once
When it makes sense to keep accounts on both HTX and BingX
You do not have to pick one. Two accounts give you a fallback when the coin or network you need exists only on the other venue. Spot and earn stay on the ecosystem, contracts on the terminal. Moving between them costs pennies on the right network.
