MEXC vs WEEX

MEXC collects new coins, WEEX collects leverage and contracts. Different jobs, usually done on different venues.

Compared by the numbers

Collected straight from the exchanges. Volume is deliberately left out: venues count it differently, and on some the top of the list is tokenised equities. The last row is our advertisement scanner’s coverage, not the venue’s full currency list, which is wider.

In short: the difference

How MEXC differs from WEEX

First in the pair, MEXC, is a venue that lists early and often. On the market since 2018, jurisdiction: Seychelles, its own MX token.

Second in the pair, WEEX, is an exchange with a strong futures side. On the market since 2018, jurisdiction: Singapore, its own WXT token.

What MEXC gives you

The terminal is strong on contracts, but MEXC has its own ground: The early-listing venue: fifteen hundred spot pairs and over a thousand perpetuals, among the broadest we cover. New coins land here before they reach the majors. There is P2P, savings and staking, Kickstarter launches and copy trading. The spot maker fee is zero, and USDT withdrawals on Plasma are free.

Where MEXC is strong

a zero maker fee, free withdrawals on Plasma, early listings, 1500 spot pairs.

What WEEX gives you

Against an early-listing venue, WEEX plays a different game: In a short time it gathered volume that some veterans lack: seventeen hundred spot pairs and a thousand perpetuals. There is P2P in dozens of currencies, copy trading, yield products and the WXT token. The venue maintains a public user protection fund and states its size openly.

Where WEEX is strong

1700 spot pairs and 1000 contracts, a broad P2P, a public protection fund.

What decides it

Fees, withdrawals and limits: where the gap shows

  • Jurisdiction. MEXC sits in Seychelles, WEEX in Singapore. It shapes both the checks you pass and what the venue has to disclose.
  • Native tokens. MEXC has MX, WEEX has WXT: holders usually get fee discounts and access to launches.
  • Strengths side by side. MEXC: a zero maker fee, free withdrawals on Plasma, early listings, 1500 spot pairs; WEEX: 1700 spot pairs and 1000 contracts, a broad P2P, a public protection fund.
  • Which job. MEXC is for anyone chasing new coins and working from a wide list, while WEEX is for anyone who needs a wide choice of pairs and a live P2P in their currency.
  • Worth remembering. MEXC: among thousands of pairs many are very thin: check the book before size. WEEX: eleven withdrawal networks — fewer than the largest venues.

Which one fits you

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 MEXC good for arbitrage? For same-venue arbitrage, yes, thanks to the zero maker fee. For cross-venue you must watch volume: on thin pairs a visible price gap is often unfillable.

MEXC: What does trading on MEXC cost? The spot maker fee is zero. Under the zero-fee programme both sides are free; under the later standard model the taker pays 0.05%. The rate on your own fee page takes priority. Contracts are 0.01% maker and 0.04% taker as standard.

Questions about WEEX

WEEX: How is a VIP tier reached on WEEX? Meeting one of three conditions is enough: 30-day volume, a WXT balance held for a day, or average asset value over five days. Tier one on spot takes $500,000 of volume, or 5,000 WXT, or $10,000 of assets.

WEEX: What is the protection fund? A public thousand-bitcoin reserve. Its addresses are published and the balance can be checked on-chain. It is not a full audit of the exchange.

WEEX: Is it true that WEEX offers 400x leverage? Yes, but only on the first risk step. On the gold contract 400x holds up to a 50,000 USDT position; beyond that the ceiling falls to 100x, 50x, 20x and 10x while the maintenance margin rises from 0.15% to 50%.

Both at once

When it makes sense to keep accounts on both MEXC and WEEX

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. 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.

Live numbers

Live MEXC and WEEX prices side by side

The table above is built from our own market snapshots: USDT pairs, perpetual contracts, P2P ads and currencies, withdrawal networks and the cheapest one. MEXC and WEEX can be compared on facts rather than promises.

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.

How often they refresh

Spot and futures every few seconds; fee tiers and withdrawal networks once a day.

What the numbers say

Where the gap between MEXC and WEEX is widest

WEEX lists 11 networks for USDT, MEXC lists 8 — that is freedom of route when you move funds. Spot breadth is a draw — close to 1,487 USDT pairs on both. Our scanner reads P2P advertisements on WEEX in 89 currencies and on MEXC in 22. Contract counts sit side by side — 1,073 or thereabouts on each. MEXC asks less to move USDT — 0.0100 over BSC; WEEX comes to 0.0150 OPTIMISM.

What this comparison is built on

Pair counts, withdrawal chains, fee tiers and P2P currencies are taken from the venues own public references, not from our judgement. Where a venue does not publish a field, we say so plainly instead of filling in a number.
