The second quarter of 2025 has once again placed the crypto market in the global spotlight. Exchanges compete for users, institutions expand their presence, countries seek balance between regulation and growth, and startups introduce increasingly bold innovations. Amid this turbulence, MEXC continues to stand out as one of the global leaders.
In this article, we’ll cover:
MEXC’s record-breaking results in Q2,
Ukraine’s progress toward comprehensive crypto legislation,

1.MEXC Wraps Up a Record-Breaking Second Quarter
Q2 2025 turned out to be one of the most successful quarters in MEXC’s history.
1.1. Explosive Growth in New Listings
Within just three months, MEXC listed 580 new tokens. This marks an all-time high for the exchange and highlights its commitment to innovation and accessibility.
Among the highlights:
FHE, INIT, KERNEL — infrastructure and AI-driven projects merging crypto with machine learning.
MOONPIG, GORK — meme tokens that gained extraordinary popularity and brought a new wave of users to MEXC.
Several Ethereum-based tokens, including LA, which skyrocketed by over 9100%.
This proves MEXC’s strongest competitive edge: speed and boldness in listings. While bigger exchanges often move cautiously, MEXC remains the first entry point for early access to high-potential projects.
1.2. A Rapidly Growing Global Community
MEXC’s global user base has surpassed 40 million traders worldwide. For context, in 2023 the exchange had about 10 million users — meaning its community has nearly quadrupled in just two years.

Southeast Asia (Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines),
Latin America,
Europe, including Ukraine.
Localized platforms, language support, and partnerships with regional projects are fueling this growth.

For traders, this means: more projects launching first on MEXC, ensuring unique early access opportunities.
1.4. Security and Proof of Reserves
MEXC invests heavily in trust and transparency:
Guardian Fund ($100M) ensures user compensation in case of hacks or system failures.
BTC Proof-of-Reserve at 127.59% (over 4,080 BTC) confirms full coverage of user assets.
Futures Insurance Fund has already distributed over $559M in user protection.

The framework will align with EU FATF standards.
This will integrate Ukraine into the broader European financial system.
2.2. The Position of the National Bank of Ukraine
NBU Governor Andriy Pyshnyy emphasized that crypto will not become legal tender. The hryvnia remains the only recognized means of payment in Ukraine.
