MEXC recorded the deepest combined BTC and ETH futures order book depth within the 0.03% price band and posted the lowest median slippage for a $300,000 silver (XAG) futures sell order among all exchanges surveyed, according to TokenInsight's Crypto Exchange Liquidity Report for September 2026.

The September 2026 edition of the report provides a systematic assessment of liquidity performance across nine major global crypto exchanges, measured against three core metrics: order book depth, trading slippage, and bid-ask spread. Its coverage spans BTC and ETH across both spot and futures markets, as well as XAU (gold) and XAG (silver) futures. These metrics are core benchmarks of execution quality: depth measures resting volume near the mid-market price, slippage captures the gap between the expected and actual fill price of an order, and the bid-ask spread reflects the immediate cost of trading.

Top-Tier BTC and ETH Spot Liquidity

In spot markets, MEXC's combined BTC and ETH order book depth reached approximately $1.35 million within the tightest 0.01% price band, tying with one other exchange for the deepest spot liquidity recorded in the report. At the wider 0.03% band, the exchange's combined BTC and ETH spot depth stood at $3.58 million, ranking second among the surveyed venues. For a $500,000 BTC spot sell order, MEXC posted the report's lowest median slippage at 0.005%.

Near-Touch Futures Depth Leads at $21.03M

Within the 0.03% price band, MEXC's combined BTC and ETH futures depth reached $21.03 million, the deepest among the nine exchanges surveyed. The figure highlights the exchange's strength in concentrating executable liquidity close to the mid-market price — depth in this band means sizable orders can be matched against resting liquidity at prices near the mid-market.

Consistent ETH Futures Execution Across Order Sizes

MEXC delivered strong ETH futures execution across both tested order sizes, recording median/P90 slippage of 0.003%/0.007% for a $500,000 sell order and 0.008%/0.013% for a $1 million sell order, placing it among the best-performing results in the report. Testing at both sizes shows how execution holds up as order tickets double, a relevant reference point for larger traders sizing positions.

Lowest Silver Futures Slippage at 0.002%

In XAG futures, MEXC recorded a median slippage of 0.002% for a $300,000 sell order, the lowest among all surveyed exchanges. The exchange also posted a combined XAU and XAG futures depth of $2.39 million within the 0.01% band and led the market in XAG-specific order book depth. The report's benchmarking of gold and silver futures alongside BTC and ETH underscores the overlap between crypto venues and traditional financial instruments, aligning with MEXC's positioning as a gateway to TradFi-linked opportunities.

Cross-Market Liquidity Findings

TokenInsight's report highlights MEXC's strong liquidity and execution performance across both crypto and precious-metals markets, particularly in near-touch order book depth and trade execution. According to the findings, these capabilities provide a foundation for a more efficient trading experience as users access opportunities across global markets. MEXC has stated that it will continue to strengthen its liquidity infrastructure and trading capabilities to provide users with broader and more efficient market access. With its standardized depth, slippage, and spread framework, the report also gives readers a consistent yardstick for comparing execution quality across major venues over time.

The full results are detailed in the TokenInsight Crypto Exchange Liquidity Report for September 2026. The announcement is also available as a press release on the MEXC blog.
