MEXC
HIBTIn short: the difference
How MEXC differs from HIBT
First in the pair, MEXC, is the place where new coins show up first. On the market since 2018, jurisdiction: Seychelles, its own MX token.
Second in the pair, HIBT, is a venue with bots and a Web3 side. .
What MEXC gives you
The rival’s service list is wide, yet MEXC wins on other things: Coins arrive here before they reach the majors: fifteen hundred spot pairs and over a thousand perpetuals, among the broadest selections we cover. P2P, savings and staking, Kickstarter and copy trading are all present. The spot maker fee is zero and USDT leaves free over Plasma.
Where MEXC is strong
a zero maker fee, free withdrawals on Plasma, early listings, 1500 spot pairs.
What HIBT gives you
Against an early-listing venue, HIBT plays a different game: HIBT is spot: just under five hundred pairs against USDT and noticeable turnover on the leading coins. Because the book is served a pair at a time, we keep the top hundred and fifty by turnover under watch, walked by a dedicated collector. Size comes with the best quotes, so how much a route can actually fill is visible too.
Where HIBT is strong
sizes at the best quote are open, nearly 500 USDT pairs, a relaxed request pace with no hard limits.
What decides it
Fees, withdrawals and limits: where the gap shows
- Native token. MX on MEXC cuts fees and opens launches; HIBT has no such lever.
- Strengths side by side. MEXC: a zero maker fee, free withdrawals on Plasma, early listings, 1500 spot pairs; HIBT: sizes at the best quote are open, nearly 500 USDT pairs, a relaxed request pace with no hard limits.
- Which job. MEXC is for anyone chasing new coins and working from a wide list, while HIBT is as an extra side in spot and triangular routes.
- Worth remembering. MEXC: among thousands of pairs many are very thin: check the book before size. HIBT: the book is served one pair per request, so only the top of the turnover list enters the scanners.

What people ask most
Questions about MEXC
MEXC: Can I trade without verification? Spot is available with daily withdrawal limits. Lifting them, and P2P, require verification.
MEXC: Is the spot fee really zero? Zero for the maker — an order that rests in the book and fills. Buying at market makes you a taker, paying the normal rate, though one of the lowest around.
MEXC: What is the maximum leverage on MEXC? Up to 500x on selected contracts — more than any other venue we cover. It is not a general figure: the real ceiling per instrument sits in the directory at contract.mexc.com/api/v1/contract/detail and falls as the position grows.
Questions about HIBT
HIBT: Why do the scanners show only some HIBT pairs? The exchange serves its book one pair per request. Walking five hundred pairs in one refresh is impossible, so we watch the top of the turnover list. Using the last trade price instead was not an option: you cannot buy at it.
HIBT: Why is HIBT missing from funding? The venue does have futures, but we found no open programmatic access to the funding rate, and without it the section is pointless.
HIBT: What does trading on HIBT cost? The base spot rate is 0.20% for maker and taker. A ten-tier discount programme takes it as far as 0.0125% maker and 0.03% taker at the top. The tier counts 30-day volume and balance, with a snapshot at 00:00 UTC+8.
Both at once
When it makes sense to keep accounts on both MEXC and HIBT
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.

Where these numbers come from
Prices are read straight from the venues and refresh automatically. There is no averaged rate here: each exchange has its own, which is why both are shown side by side.

Spot and futures every few seconds; fee tiers and withdrawal networks once a day.
What the numbers say
Where MEXC and HIBT diverge the most
MEXC gives 3× the choice on spot: 1,413 USDT pairs against 475. Our scanner reads P2P on MEXC only — 60 currencies. MEXC is the one of the two with a published USDT withdrawal: 0.0100 on BSC.
Where these numbers come from
Pair counts, withdrawal networks, fee rates and the P2P currency list come from the exchanges own public interfaces. Where a venue withholds a field, the table shows a dash and an explanation.
