Standing at the midpoint of 2025, Huobi HTX is accelerating toward its goal of becoming a global top-tier cryptocurrency exchange with steady progress, a clear strategy, and an innovative spirit.
Navigating Web3 tides with focused insights
The overall cryptocurrency market is currently experiencing high-level volatility, with Bitcoin fluctuating around $107,000 and market sentiment remaining cautious. Against this backdrop, Kaiko, a leading crypto data firm, recently released its Q2 2025 Spot Exchange Report, revealing that Huobi HTX stood out among 45 major global exchanges. The platform rose two spots from the previous quarter, successfully entering the global top eight and becoming the exchange with the largest ranking improvement within the Top 10.
Beyond its improved overall ranking, Huobi HTX demonstrated notable progress across multiple dimensions in May—including trading performance, brand initiatives, new asset listings, product innovation, security enhancements, and user services. Below is a comprehensive review of Huobi HTX's achievements for May.
Rising Rankings Across Major Platforms, Strong Core Metrics, and Breakout Brand Campaigns Drive Stable Growth
According to Kaiko’s evaluation across governance, commercial operations, technology, and security, Huobi HTX ranked second globally in both “Commercial” and “Technology” categories, while its “Security” performance was also highly recognized, placing it among the industry leaders.
Besides Kaiko, Huobi HTX has consistently climbed in rankings across multiple authoritative crypto data platforms. On CoinGecko, it surged from 13th to 7th place. On CoinMarketCap (CMC), its ranking steadily improved from 15th to 9th, solidifying its status as a top-tier exchange among global Web3 users. On DefiLlama, a platform focused on the North American market, Huobi HTX maintained a stable 6th position. On CryptoRank, widely used by users in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) region, it held a strong 3rd place. This sustained rise in global rankings reflects Huobi HTX’s deep commitment to user asset security, innovative product development, globalization strategy, and service excellence.
Operationally, trading activity on Huobi HTX saw significant growth in May: the number of traders increased by 11% month-on-month, trading volume rose by 33%, and platform assets grew by 11% MoM—marking four consecutive months of positive growth. These figures indicate growing user confidence in Huobi HTX’s trading environment and increasingly stable capital inflows.
On the branding front, Huobi HTX hosted a special "Pizza Day 15th Anniversary" event in May, linking the iconic crypto holiday with Justin Sun’s attendance at a Trump-hosted dinner. The platform launched a large-scale integrated campaign titled “Share the $200,000 Crypto Feast.”
During the event, user and trading metrics soared across the board: over 239,000 new users joined, spot trading participation increased by 28.6% MoM, and multiple services including futures trading and earn programs saw strong growth. The platform distributed approximately 752,350 USDT in rewards, with the Pizza Day red packet event attracting more than 210,000 participants—some receiving up to 99 USDT each—sparking a wave of platform-wide crypto enthusiasm. Huobi HTX has now officially launched its “12th Anniversary Celebration” plans, featuring multi-service, cross-scenario collaborations and an expanded lineup of activities to reward both new and existing users.
