Steadily Growing Trading Volume, Assets, and Organic Traffic
In the third quarter of 2025, HTX’s total trading volume rose by 25% quarter-over-quarter, while new registrations grew by 13%, expanding the platform’s user base to new highs. Total user assets on HTX reached $6.87 billion, up 6.4% from the previous quarter, solidifying the platform’s position as the world’s leading exchange.
Traffic metrics also reflected the platform’s rising influence, with total impressions up 7% to 13 million, page views up 37% to 46 million, and unique visitors up 43% to 19 million. The continued growth in organic traffic underscores HTX’s expanding global reach and user engagement.
High-Quality New Assets Become Wealth Boosters and Quarterly $HTX Burn Hits New High
Q3 also marked a breakthrough for new listings. HTX introduced 39 quality projects, including initial listings such as TREE, CAMP, WLFI, HOLO, LINEA, AVNT, ASTER, 0G, XPL, and FF. Many of these generated outsized returns for early participants. AVNT, ASTER, 0G, and XPL all presented a near doubling of investments. ASTER, featuring an innovative “no-MEV, low-slippage” model, surged by 400% after listing, becoming the quarter’s top performer. AVNT, a standout Base ecosystem token, delivered a threefold increase, while WLFI, a DeFi project backed by the Trump family, captured broad market attention. HTX’s steady stream of promising assets further reinforced its reputation as a launchpad for new opportunities and a premier destination for early-stage token listings.
On the tokenomics front, HTX DAO officially announced the completion of its Q3 $HTX burn on October 14, a total of 13,119,801,941,748 $HTX, worth over $27.03 million. This burn, up 11.19% quarter-over-quarter, sets a new record since the launch of the burn mechanism. Cumulatively, HTX DAO has now burnt approximately 85.88 trillion $HTX tokens, valued at $163 million. These ongoing deflationary measures continue to optimize token circulation and strengthen $HTX’s long-term value foundation. Meanwhile, HTX DAO is expanding its global developer ecosystem, focusing on CeFi–DeFi integration, RWA innovation, and other on-chain $HTX applications, empowering builders with resources, exposure, and sustainable growth opportunities.
Marketing Campaigns and Branding for Greater Global Influence
HTX maintained strong marketing momentum throughout Q3 with a series of high-engagement events, covering stablecoin trading, Ethereum’s 10th anniversary, the TRON brand, and trending assets like SOL, TRUMP, USD1, and WLFI. These events attracted over 100,000 registered participants and airdropped tens of billions of $HTX, enhancing platform activity and amplifying its global brand visibility.
In terms of brand exposure, HTX continued to expand both online and offline reach. At GM Vietnam, more than 1,300 users registered onsite, setting a strong tone for the quarter. During TOKEN2049 Singapore and the afterparty, HTX DAO and HTX Ventures achieved a combined brand reach of 254 million impressions, over 3,100 clients, and 800 industry professionals with the 12th-anniversary “Flame” element leaving a lasting impression. Meanwhile, Justin Sun attended the afterparty and awarded the top 3 performers at the Miss HTX Finals.
Product Upgrades and Forward-Looking Research
From a product standpoint, HTX introduced key product upgrades to enhance security and experience. Accounts now support YubiKeys, providing enhanced account protection. Spot trading received a comprehensive overhaul, while Collateral Swap 2.0 went live, offering multi-asset collateral and interest-free borrowing to support users’ diversified asset management needs.
HTX Ventures and HTX Research continued to publish influential insights throughout the quarter. HTX Ventures released a string of reports, including “Are Tokenized Stocks A Treat or A Trap?”, analyzing the emerging stock tokenization, regulatory trends, and institutional coordination for in-depth reading of the RWA sector. HTX Research published its flagship reports “The New Stablecoin Order: Restructuring Global Payments, Regulatory Legitimization, and the Capital War (Part I)” and “The New Order of Stablecoins (Part II): Exploring Stablecoin Public Blockchains — From Settlement Layer Reconstruction to Next-Generation Design Paradigms”, dissecting stablecoin payment reconstruction, regulatory progress, and blockchain-native settlement models. The reports have since become widely cited across the industry. Additionally, the midyear report “H1 2025 Key Industry Highlights: DAT Becomes the Standard, Perpetual DEX Aggregators Surge, Stablecoin Channels Dominate, and More” provided a comprehensive review of sectoral trends, highlighting TRON and HTX as key drivers in the evolving stablecoin and new asset markets.
