- MEXC launched "RealStocks", a platform that lets users trade U.S. stocks spot‑on with zero platform fees and receive actual dividends.
- Atomic Vaults, a FINRA‑licensed broker‑dealer backed by Founders Fund and ARK Invest, supplies the regulatory and clearing infrastructure for RealStocks.
- MEXC announced three limited‑time incentive campaigns: a SpaceX(PRE) airdrop (May 28‑June 5) with a 200,000 USDT prize pool, a $1,000,000 stock prize pool for zero‑fee trading (June 2‑June 16), and a real‑time market data subsidy for new deposits during the first month.
- Vugar Usi, MEXC CEO, said the launch coincides with a historic wave of 2026 IPOs, giving crypto users the chance to become real shareholders of top tech firms.
- MEXC serves over 40 million users across 170+ markets, offering 0‑fee trading on more than 3,000 digital assets and now expanding into traditional equities.
Why it matters: Crypto traders gain direct, fee‑free access to U.S. equities and dividend payouts, while traditional broker‑dealers face fresh competition; the $1 M prize pool and data subsidies accelerate adoption, driving equity exposure among crypto investors.
