MEXC launches annual 0808 brand event with Stock Season and $500,000 prize pool

MEXC, a pioneer in 0-fee digital asset trading, has introduced MEXC 0808: Stock Season, the first edition of its annual brand celebration centered on 0 Fees and Infinite Opportunities. Early bird registration is now open ahead of the main campaign launch on August 8, with participants able to compete for a share of a $500,000 prize pool.

The launch positions MEXC 0808 as an annual brand milestone built around the company’s 0-fee trading commitment and broader market access strategy. MEXC said zero fees are not limited to a single campaign period, but reflect a value it delivers throughout the year by reducing trading costs and expanding access to more markets. Each August 8, the company said, it will spotlight that commitment through new products, market opportunities and user rewards. In 2025, MEXC said its 0-fee strategy saved 3.44 million users more than 1.1 billion USDT in trading fees.

For this year’s first 0808 theme, MEXC is highlighting Stock Season, which it said reflects the rapid growth of stock trading on crypto exchange infrastructure. A recent report jointly released by MEXC and CoinGecko found that U.S. stock trading volume across six major centralized exchanges rose 337.4% month over month to $189.84 billion in June 2026. The report also said U.S. stocks accounted for 48.3% of total TradFi trading volume and became the market’s largest traditional asset category for the first time.

“0808 brings together the two values at the center of MEXC, 0 Fees and Infinite Opportunities. It represents more than a campaign. It is a celebration of the values that define MEXC,” said Vugar Usi Zade, CEO of MEXC. “Our commitment to 0 Fees is about removing barriers, while Infinite Opportunities is about helping users access more markets, more products and more ways to participate in the global financial system. Every year, MEXC 0808 will showcase how we continue delivering on those commitments. Through Stock Season, we are giving users more ways to discover and participate in opportunities across the global equity market.”

MEXC said it has expanded its stock offering to support access through multiple product formats and investment stages. Alongside RealStocks, which provides access to more than 7,000 U.S. stocks and ETFs, the exchange offers more than 200 stock and index futures products, more than 200 tokenized U.S. equities, and Pre-IPO Launchpad opportunities. According to the company, these products give users access to real shares, derivatives, tokenized exposure and early-stage investment opportunities through a single account. MEXC also said its stock and index futures trading volume increased approximately 261% month over month in June 2026.

To mark Stock Season, MEXC will offer 0 Fees across Stock Futures, Tokenized Stocks and RealStocks, aiming to lower participation costs during one of the year’s most active market periods.

Early bird registration runs from August 5 at 08:08 UTC to August 8 at 08:07 UTC.
