Navigating Web3 tides with focused insights
Facing the sharp volatility and shrinking trading volume in the cryptocurrency market during Q1 2026, HTX DAO delivered an impressive token-burning “report card.”
According to its official announcement, HTX DAO successfully completed the Q1 2026 $HTX token burn on April 15. A total of 10,825,402,253,521.04 $HTX tokens were burned—valued at nearly $19.22 million. To date, HTX DAO has cumulatively burned and donated a staggering 110.32 trillion $HTX tokens.
Unfazed by Market Downturns: Demonstrating “Counter-Cyclical” Profit Resilience
This quarter, global macro sentiment weighed heavily on the crypto market, causing overall trading volume to decline 27% quarter-on-quarter. Amid widespread revenue contraction across the industry, $HTX demonstrated exceptional “counter-cyclical” resilience.
Data shows that despite the relatively sluggish market, the quarterly $HTX burn volume remained robust—exceeding 1% of the total supply. This indicates that the Huobi HTX platform continues to maintain efficient revenue conversion and sustain its high-frequency burning rhythm. Such strong performance amid headwinds has significantly boosted community and holder confidence.
Market capital flows further corroborate this trend. According to DefiLlama data, as of March 31, Huobi HTX ranked #1 globally on the centralized exchange (CEX) 24-hour net inflow leaderboard, attracting $54.14 million in net inflows on a single day—with a consistently stable overall inflow trend.
Over 11% Burned in Two Years; 5.5% Annual Deflation Rate Reinforces Asset Scarcity
Notably, since launching its burn program in 2024, cumulative $HTX burns and donations have surged past 11% of the total supply—achieving an astonishing average annual deflation rate of 5.5%. This significantly outpaces comparable tokens and most major crypto assets, establishing formidable scarcity barriers and foundational value support for $HTX.
Beyond deflation, demand-side drivers for $HTX are also strengthening.
In Q1 alone, $HTX successfully launched on Bit2Me—a regulated European exchange—expanding its user base and liquidity within compliant markets. Concurrently, HTX DAO launched a high-profile $HTX staking feature, enabling users to earn up to 10% APY while participating in governance—enhancing both holding incentives and lock-up commitment.
Additionally, effective April 1, $HTX became the sole fee-discount token on the Huobi HTX exchange, deeply integrating into core trading workflows—and providing robust support for the sustained execution of future burns and positive market expectations.
The “flying against the wind” performance in Q1 2026 serves not only as the strongest validation of $HTX’s deflationary model but also as a microcosm of Huobi HTX’s resilient ecosystem development. Looking ahead, as the deflationary mechanism continues gaining traction and the ecosystem expands steadily, $HTX’s “absolute scarcity” is poised for further amplification.
