HTX
CoinstoreIn short: the difference
How HTX differs from Coinstore
HTX is an exchange with services around the trading. On the market since 2013, jurisdiction: Seychelles, its own HTX token.
Coinstore is a venue that lists early and often. On the market since 2020, jurisdiction: Singapore.
What HTX gives you
Early listings are not the only argument; HTX answers with its own: On the market since 2013, and the cheapest USDT withdrawal in our coverage — 0.001 over BTT. Spot across nearly six hundred pairs, perpetual futures, P2P in dozens of currencies, HTX Earn yield products, Primepool launches and copy trading. Thirteen networks to withdraw through.
Where HTX is strong
the cheapest USDT withdrawal we cover, a broad P2P, running since 2013.
What Coinstore gives you
Compared with an ecosystem, Coinstore leans on its own strengths: Running from Singapore since 2020 and competing on early listings. We track 423 USDT spot pairs with order-book sizes. Its coin reference returns the contract address, the withdrawal fee and the chain status — fuller than its peers in this group.
Where Coinstore is strong
contract addresses, withdrawal fees and chain status in one reference, order-book sizes in the snapshot, early listings.
What decides it
Fees, withdrawals and limits: where the gap shows
- Age. HTX has run since 2013, Coinstore since 2020 — a gap of 7 years. It guarantees nothing on its own, but the older venue has been through more market cycles.
- Jurisdiction. HTX sits in Seychelles, Coinstore in Singapore. It shapes both the checks you pass and what the venue has to disclose.
- Native token. HTX on HTX cuts fees and opens launches; Coinstore has no such lever.
- Strengths side by side. HTX: the cheapest USDT withdrawal we cover, a broad P2P, running since 2013; Coinstore: contract addresses, withdrawal fees and chain status in one reference, order-book sizes in the snapshot, early listings.
- Which job. HTX is for anyone who moves coins between venues often, while Coinstore is as a source of early listings and the second side in spot routes.
- Worth remembering. HTX: the spot fee is above the average here — keep it in your maths. Coinstore: the reference is served one coin per request, so we collect it in batches, and the ticker symbol has no separator — the venue stays out of triangular arbitrage.

What people ask most
Questions about HTX
HTX: How is a Prime tier reached? There are four criteria and any one can suffice: 30-day spot volume, contract volume, asset value as of the previous day, or the value of HTX tokens held as of the previous day. By spot volume, tier one starts at 30,000 USDT.
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: What does trading on HTX cost? The base spot rate is 0.20% both ways, above the average we cover. With Prime it falls to 0.0126% maker and 0.0218% taker. Contracts are 0.02% and 0.06% on USDT margin and 0.02% and 0.05% on coin margin.
Questions about Coinstore
Coinstore: How many pairs does Coinstore have? Our measurements see 423 USDT spot pairs. CoinMarketCap credits the exchange with 149 markets and roughly 96 million dollars of daily turnover.
Coinstore: How much does a USDT withdrawal from Coinstore cost? It depends on the chain: TRON costs 8 USDT, Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum and Avalanche 2–3, BNB Chain 1 and Polygon 0.15. A fiftyfold gap, so the chain is chosen before the withdrawal.
Coinstore: Why is Coinstore missing from triangular arbitrage? Its symbols come glued with no separator, so the boundary between coin and quote currency cannot be parsed reliably. We would rather show no route than a wrong one.
Both at once
When it makes sense to keep accounts on both HTX and Coinstore
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. A rare coin is bought where it exists and moved to the ecosystem — easier to hold, stake or sell into a deeper book there.
