MEXC
BloFinIn short: the difference
How MEXC differs from BloFin
MEXC is a venue that lists early and often. On the market since 2018, jurisdiction: Seychelles, its own MX token.
BloFin is an exchange that lives on leverage. On the market since 2023, jurisdiction: Marshall Islands.
What MEXC gives you
Next to a derivatives terminal, MEXC answers with something else: Built for anyone chasing new listings: tokens show up earlier than on the big venues, and the choice is wide — fifteen hundred spot pairs and more than a thousand perpetual contracts. P2P, yield products, Kickstarter launches and copy trading round it out. Maker costs nothing, and Plasma withdrawals of USDT are free.
Where MEXC is strong
a zero maker fee, free withdrawals on Plasma, early listings, 1500 spot pairs.
What BloFin gives you
Early listings are not the only argument; BloFin answers with its own: A young exchange leaning into derivatives: 528 perpetuals, 504 spot pairs, futures fees from 0.02%. Copy trading is the headline product, and funding rates for all contracts come in one batch — which is exactly why the venue is in our funding section.
Where BloFin is strong
funding rates for every contract in one response, low futures fees, a network reference with withdrawal fees for 503 coins.
What decides it
Fees, withdrawals and limits: where the gap shows
- Age. MEXC has run since 2018, BloFin since 2023 — a gap of 5 years. It guarantees nothing on its own, but the older venue has been through more market cycles.
- Jurisdiction. MEXC sits in Seychelles, BloFin in Marshall Islands. It shapes both the checks you pass and what the venue has to disclose.
- Native token. MX on MEXC cuts fees and opens launches; BloFin has no such lever.
- Strengths side by side. MEXC: a zero maker fee, free withdrawals on Plasma, early listings, 1500 spot pairs; BloFin: funding rates for every contract in one response, low futures fees, a network reference with withdrawal fees for 503 coins.
- Which job. MEXC is for anyone chasing new coins and working from a wide list, while BloFin is as the futures leg against spot and as a funding rate source.
- Worth remembering. MEXC: among thousands of pairs many are very thin: check the book before size. BloFin: no contract addresses, thinner spot liquidity than the top five, and a website that sometimes asks for a browser check.

What people ask most
Questions about MEXC
MEXC: Does MX give a discount? Yes: the spot taker falls from 0.05% to 0.04%, and on contracts the maker from 0.01% to 0.008% and the taker from 0.04% to 0.032%. Where the fee is already zero it adds nothing. The "50% for 500 MX" promotion has been suspended since 9 February 2026.
MEXC: What is the minimum order on MEXC? It belongs to each pair. The spot filters LOT_SIZE, PRICE_FILTER and NOTIONAL come from api.mexc.com/api/v3/exchangeInfo; contract parameters come from a separate directory with the contract size and minimum volume.
MEXC: Why does MEXC list so many coins? It deliberately chose an early-listing strategy. That is its main distinction and its main risk: real projects sit next to pairs turning over a thousand dollars a day.
Questions about BloFin
BloFin: Is BloFin part of the funding section? Yes. The venue returns rates for every contract in one response, with the interval and the next settlement time, so its rates refresh in the common cycle without a lag.
BloFin: What are BloFin fees? Futures cost 0.02% maker and 0.06% taker for a regular user, spot costs 0.1%. By tier the maker rate falls to zero and the taker rate to 0.035%.
BloFin: What are the USDT withdrawal fees? TRON — 1 USDT, Ethereum — 0.5, BNB Chain — 0.15, Polygon — 0.05, Solana — 0.5, Arbitrum — 0.2. We collect the full reference for 503 coins ourselves and show it in the table at the top of this page.
Both at once
When it makes sense to keep accounts on both MEXC and BloFin
Nothing stops you from opening an account on both: it is free, and a pair of venues almost always beats any single one on price. The coin is bought where it already trades, moved across and shorted with a contract on the other — that locks the price while the transfer runs.
