MEXC and CoinGecko Report: CEX TradFi Volume Surges Over 100-Fold as 83.3% of Users Plan to Trade More

MUTSAMUDU, Comoros, July 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — MEXC, a pioneer in 0-fee digital asset trading, in collaboration with CoinGecko, today released How Crypto Exchanges Are Reshaping Traditional Asset Trading, a new report examining the rapid expansion of traditional financial assets on centralized crypto exchanges and the corresponding shift in global investor behavior.

MEXC and CoinGecko Report: CEX TradFi Volume Surges Over 100-Fold as 83.3% of Users Plan to Trade More
MEXC and CoinGecko Report: CEX TradFi Volume Surges Over 100-Fold as 83.3% of Users Plan to Trade More

Key Takeaways:

  1. TradFi trading volume across six major centralized exchanges increased from $3.46 billion in January 2025 to $393.15 billion in June 2026, representing growth of more than 100-fold. Perpetual futures accounted for 98.5% of total June volume.
  2. U.S. stocks overtook precious metals as the largest TradFi category in June. Monthly volume surged 337.4% to $189.84 billion, capturing a 48.3% market share, while precious metals volume declined 48.2% from its March peak to $122.59 billion.
  3. MEXC’s monthly TradFi trading volume increased approximately 59-fold, from $1.54 billion in November 2025 to $91.12 billion in May 2026. MEXC held the second-largest monthly market share among the six exchanges for five consecutive months from January to May 2026.
  4. MEXC ranked first among the six exchanges in precious metals trading for two consecutive months, recording $72.12 billion in April and $85.15 billion in May.
  5. Among crypto-native users, 61.9% have already begun trading traditional assets on a crypto exchange.
  6. Among users with traditional-finance experience, 74.2% have moved some or all of their traditional-asset trading activity onto crypto exchanges.
  7. Across all respondents, 83.3% plan to further increase their traditional-asset trading volume on crypto exchanges

The report combines an analysis of trading activity across Binance, MEXC, Bitget, OKX, Gate and Bybit with findings from MEXC’s global survey of 6,185 users across 13 languages. It shows that crypto exchanges are evolving beyond crypto-only platforms into multi-asset trading gateways covering equities, precious metals, and commodities.

TradFi Trading Becomes a $393 Billion Market

TradFi trading on crypto exchanges has moved rapidly from a niche segment into a major derivatives market. Combined monthly volume across the six exchanges rose from $3.46 billion in January 2025 to $393.15 billion in June 2026.

The growth was driven overwhelmingly by perpetual futures, which generated $387.39 billion in June, compared with $5.75 billion in spot volume. Perpetuals therefore accounted for approximately 98.5% of total activity, showing that users currently engage with traditional assets on CEXs primarily through leveraged and highly liquid trading products.

U.S. Stocks Overtake Precious Metals

Precious metals drove the market’s first major growth phase, reaching a peak of $236.76 billion in March 2026. By June, however, volume had declined 48.2% from that peak to $122.59 billion.

At the same time, U.S. stock volume rose 337.4% month over month, from $43.40 billion in May to $189.84 billion in June. U.S. stocks accounted for approximately 48.3% of total TradFi volume and overtook precious metals as the largest asset category for the first time.

The shift was led by growing interest in semiconductor stocks, major technology companies and anticipated listings such as SpaceX, and suggests that the CEX TradFi market is expanding beyond its early dependence on gold and silver.

Investor Migration Accelerates

The survey shows that user migration is taking place in both directions. Crypto-native investors are expanding into traditional assets, while experienced TradFi users are moving existing activity onto crypto exchanges.

Among respondents, 61.9% of crypto-native users have already traded traditional assets on a CEX, while 74.2% of TradFi-experienced users have transferred some or all of their activity. Across the full sample, 83.3% plan to trade more.

Users cited always-on access, lower friction, faster execution and the ability to manage multiple asset classes through one account as key advantages.

MEXC Expands Its TradFi Offering

MEXC identified TradFi as an important growth area early. Its monthly TradFi volume increased approximately 59-fold to $91.12 billion in May, while the platform ranked second among the six exchanges for five consecutive months.

MEXC also ranked first in precious metals trading in April and May, supported by strong liquidity in gold and silver products.

“Traditional assets are becoming a core part of how users engage with crypto exchanges, rather than an experimental product category,” said Vugar, CEO of MEXC. “MEXC identified this shift early and has built a strong position in areas such as precious metals and commodities. As user demand expands into U.S. equities, indices and other global markets, we will continue introducing new products and strengthening our trading infrastructure so users can access more opportunities through a single platform.”

MEXC plans to continue expanding its TradFi product suite in response to changing user demand. The platform will focus on broadening asset coverage, developing deeper liquidity and reducing the friction involved in moving between crypto and traditional markets.

The full report, with breakdowns by asset class, exchange, and user type, is available at the link.

About MEXC

MEXC is the world’s fastest-growing cryptocurrency exchange, trusted by more than 40 million users across 170+ markets. Built on a user-first philosophy, MEXC offers industry-leading 0-fee trading and access to over 3,000 digital assets.

Xinhua Silk Road: Multi-pillar growth story gains traction in E China’s Longkou

BEIJING, July 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In the tidy workshops of a local new energy battery manufacturer in Longkou City of Shandong Province, smart production lines are busy with cell processing, module assembly and end product testing.

With its second generation of sodium-ion batteries coming off the production line recently, Shandong Dejin New Energy Science and Technology Co., Ltd. received sufficient orders from home and abroad.

Scheduled to fulfill these orders by November, the Longkou-based company produces 85 percent of the ordered batteries widely used in energy storage stations, new energy vehicles and special equipment for overseas buyers.

Currently, its upgraded high-end battery products available for mass production at its two manufacturing bases are undergoing multi-scenario performance testing and are expected to be officially released within the next year.

Such bustling production scenes of the local manufacturer offer a chance for people to feel the heartbeat of Longkou’s multi-pillar-featuring industrial layout where emerging and upgraded traditional industries jointly underpin its high-quality growth fundamentals.

For years, the county-level city has delved into developing strategically emerging industries such as new energy and new materials and managed to cultivate a batch of sci-tech innovation-driven backbone enterprises.

By encouraging local high-tech businesses to seek breakthroughs in related core technologies, Longkou saw overall upgrading across certain emerging industrial chains and accelerated the smart and green transformation of traditional industries.

For instance, a fully automated industrial pallet production project in Nanshan Industrial Park of Longkou is poised to vitalize the existing production system of a local chemical producer as recycled modified plastic product manufacturing well practices the green development philosophy.

Designed with nine smart production lines, the project is capable of producing as many as three million pieces of recycled plastic-based industrial pallets upon operation after the current equipment testing.

While bolstering emerging industries and upgrading traditional sectors, Longkou also made efforts to advance intelligent agriculture, farm produce deep processing and agricultural tourism to strengthen the pillars of its local economy.

Nowadays, characteristic industrial clusters for new energy batteries, high-end aluminum materials, digital economy and auto parts have taken shape there, pooling nearly 500 related enterprises which generate over 250 billion yuan of gross output value annually for the city with the largest number of listed companies across all county-level localities across Shandong.

Bruce Rockowitz’ #legend Unveils AI-First Strategy to Redefine Luxury Media

By

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 29 July 2026 – #legend, Asia’s leading luxury lifestyle print and digital platform, has announced its AI-first transformation strategy across editorial, commercial, and audience development operations. The move positions #legend at the forefront of a rapidly shifting media landscape, where premium publishing must evolve as quickly as the readers it serves.

As audiences increasingly consume content through AI-powered search, personalized recommendations, and immersive digital experiences, #legend is investing in artificial intelligence to enhance editorial excellence, deepen audience engagement, and create greater value for readers, luxury brands, and business partners.

“AI is not replacing creativity; it is enhancing it,” said Bruce Rockowitz, Chairman of Legend Publishing. “Luxury has always been about delivering exceptional experiences. By embracing AI, we can better understand our audience, produce richer content more efficiently, and connect brands with consumers in more meaningful ways.”

Central to the transformation is a new AI-powered editorial ecosystem built to support journalists and creative teams. Editors will be assisted with research, multilingual translation, trend analysis, and workflow efficiencies, freeing them to concentrate on the original storytelling and high-quality journalism that have defined the publication since its founding.

Readers will also notice a more personalized experience. #legend will introduce intelligent content discovery across its digital platforms, surfacing articles, luxury products, travel destinations, events, and business insights tailored to individual interests. For the brand’s commercial partners, this translates into more targeted, measurable, and meaningful marketing opportunities backed by real audience data.

For luxury brands working with #legend, AI-powered analytics will offer a clearer window into audience behavior, campaign performance, and emerging consumer trends, enabling stronger strategies and more accountable investment.

The company will also accelerate the production of premium marketing content, social campaigns, newsletters, video and multilingual editorial through generative AI, supporting its continued growth across Asia without compromising the editorial standards the brand is known for.

Recognizing that readers increasingly discover content through conversational AI rather than conventional search, #legend is investing in publishing infrastructure built for this new reality. By strengthening structured content, digital discoverability, and intelligent search capabilities, the platform is cementing its place as a trusted voice for luxury and lifestyle content wherever readers choose to find it.

Across the business, the benefits are expected to be tangible: faster production cycles, stronger reader engagement, sharper advertising performance, and more confident, data-informed decision-making at every level of the organization.

Through it all, the qualities that built #legend’s reputation remain non-negotiable. Authentic storytelling, trusted journalism, and premium experiences are not features of the old model to be discarded. They are the foundation upon which everything new will be built.

“Our future lies at the intersection of innovation and creativity,” Rockowitz added. “By combining human expertise with intelligent technology, we are building a smarter media platform that will continue to inspire readers, empower brands, and shape the future of luxury publishing in Asia.”

Chinese Commerce Chamber Urges Businesses in Laos to Cut Ties with Scam Networks

By

A picture used for illustration purpose only.

The General Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Laos has told its members to check their businesses, properties and services to make sure they do not help online scam networks operate.

The chamber issued a notice warning companies that scam operations have harmed victims and damaged the reputation of Chinese businesses in Laos.

It asked businesses to inspect properties they control, including offices, factories, warehouses, dormitories and commercial buildings, and check whether criminals use them for illegal activities.

The chamber also told companies to screen tenants carefully and avoid providing suspected scam groups with office space, internet connections, equipment, recruitment services or financial support.

Businesses that discover suspicious activities should report them to Lao authorities and the chamber. Companies that help scam networks could lose their chamber membership and face legal action.

Cybercrime Crackdown Expands Across Laos

The warning comes as Laos expands its crackdown on online fraud, cybercrime and illegal gambling networks. Police have arrested hundreds of suspects in recent raids, including Chinese nationals accused of involvement in scam operations. 

A Ministry of Public Security order issued on 15 July directs authorities to intensify efforts against cybercrime, fraud, money laundering, human trafficking, illegal labour, and online gambling. The order establishes task forces, requires authorities to report suspicious activities, and requires CCTV operators to provide footage to police when requested. It also warns against supporting scam or gambling operations, with violators facing fines and asset confiscation. 

On 14 July, police arrested 122 suspects during coordinated raids on seven rented houses in Sisattanak district. The suspects included Chinese, Malaysian, Brazilian, Myanmar, Uruguayan, and Pakistani nationals. Authorities said one property alone housed 34 Chinese nationals. 

Two separate operations in early July led to the arrest of 28 Chinese nationals allegedly linked to an online gambling network at SanJiang Market and 26 Chinese nationals accused of running a fake South Korean stock investment scam promoted through social media.

Authorities have also transferred large numbers of Chinese suspects to China for further legal action. On 24 June, Laos handed over 170 Chinese nationals through the Boten International Border Checkpoint after police accused them of operating telecommunications and online scam schemes while living and working illegally in Laos.

RiceField Launches August Campaign as Singapore Prepares to Grade Cooking Oils by Saturated Fat

The Singapore brand is encouraging households to look beyond price and habit when choosing cooking oil, as saturated fat accounts for 36% of residents’ total fat intake.


SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 29 July 2026 – RiceField Rice Bran Oil is launching a month-long consumer campaign to encourage Singapore households to take a closer look at the nutritional composition and everyday versatility of their cooking oil.

The campaign comes ahead of Singapore’s extension of Nutri-Grade requirements to cooking oils from mid-2027. Under the new measures, prepacked oils will receive grades from A to D according to their saturated-fat content, helping shoppers compare products within the category.

The Ministry of Health identified cooking oil as a key source of saturated fat in Singapore diets. Saturated fat currently accounts for 36% of total fat consumed by residents, above the recommended maximum of 30%. Hypertension affects 37% of residents, while 31.9% have high blood cholesterol.

RiceField’s 2L rice bran oil carries the Healthier Choice Symbol with the approved descriptor, “Lower in Saturated Fat”. Per 100ml, its nutrition panel lists 21.8g of saturated fat, compared with 38.2g of monounsaturated fat and 30.6g of polyunsaturated fat. It also contains 7.5mg of Vitamin E per 100ml and product-tested Gamma Oryzanol.

Interest in rice-derived ingredients has also been reflected in recent scientific research. A 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis examined 11 randomised controlled trials involving 572 participants. Across the trials, rice bran interventions were associated with average reductions of 15.13mg/dL in triglycerides, 11.80mg/dL in total cholesterol and 15.11mg/dL in LDL cholesterol, with rice bran oil showing greater effects than whole rice bran in subgroup analysis. The researchers called for further long-term studies across more diverse populations. These findings relate to rice bran interventions generally and are not product-specific treatment claims.

“Since 2000, RiceField has been introducing Singaporeans to the goodness of rice bran oil, but many still know it mainly as an oil for frying,” said Ally Ng, Marketing Director at Tong Seng Produce Pte Ltd. “As more attention is placed on what goes into everyday cooking oils, we hope to help families understand their choices and discover how rice bran oil can fit naturally into modern cooking, from stir-fries, marinates, to homemade salad dressings and even, as a moisturising body oil.”

With a light, neutral taste and high smoke point, RiceField can be used for common Asian cooking methods including stir-frying, pan-frying and deep-frying, as well as roasting and uncooked preparations.

The campaign follows RiceField’s Singapore Retail Festival activation at Ngee Ann City Civic Plaza from 17 to 19 July, where 426 participants explored the oil through salad-dressing and lavender body-oil workshops.

From 1 to 31 August 2026, shoppers who purchase 2L of RiceField Rice Bran Oil will receive a complimentary 2-in-1 Oil Spray & Dispenser (worth $8) while stocks last. RiceField is available at CS Fresh, FairPrice, Giant, Shell Select, Sheng Siong and Umart, as well as through Foodpanda, RedMart, Shopee and the official @ricefield.oil TikTok Shop.

InMobi’s unified intelligence engine delivers 2x revenue growth and a 40% improvement in ROAS, while the expanded InMobi Accelerate and Alliance network unlocks broader advertising reach


SHANGHAI, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 29 July 2026 – InMobi Advertising, the agentic advertising platform from global technology company InMobi, today announced a major expansion of its China business, introducing new AI-powered cross-screen and full-funnel advertising capabilities to help Chinese brands and developers grow both domestically and internationally. The company will showcase its latest commerce and advertising monetisation solutions at ChinaJoy 2026.

As Chinese enterprises transform into global brands, they face challenges on two distinct fronts. Domestically, navigating search, social and content ecosystems dominated by powerful closed platforms requires deep local relationships and market expertise. Internationally, consumer attention is increasingly fragmented across mobile devices, lock screens and connected TV, while advertising is often planned and bought in isolated silos, resulting in disconnected user experiences, higher churn and unpredictable returns on advertising spend.

New AI-Powered Cross-Screen Advertising CapabilitiesDrive Measurable Results

To support Chinese brands expanding globally, InMobi has introduced a unified advertising solution that combines its global programmatic exchange, strategic OEM partnerships with industry leaders including Samsung, Motorola and Google, and Glance, its flagship consumer platform. Together, these assets create an AI-optimised framework that connects mobile, lock screen and connected TV experiences, reaching more than 2.5 billion devices through 70,000+ apps integrated with the InMobi SDK.

Powered by InMobi’s unified intelligence framework, the framework is already delivering strong business outcomes, including over 2x revenue growth, and an almost 40% improvement in return on advertising spend (ROAS). Publishers integrating through the InMobi SDK are also achieving almost 3-5x greater revenue compared with API-only integrations.

At the centre of this ecosystem is Glance, which reaches approximately 250 million active users globally and provides Chinese advertisers with access to one of the world’s most engaged consumer surfaces through AI-powered discovery and commerce experiences.

Expanded InMobi Alliance Network Enhances Market Access

Alongside its AI-powered cross-screen innovations, InMobi continues to expand InMobi Accelerate and Alliance business, through which advertisers can access search and social inventory through InMobi’s strategic partnerships with Microsoft Advertising, Baidu, and Yandex, among others, helping advertisers access premium inventory and audiences across domestic and international markets. Since 2023, media flow through InMobi Accelerate and Alliance has increased rapidly in China, reflecting growing demand from Chinese advertisers seeking growth opportunities across domestic and overseas markets. Globally, InMobi Accelerate and Alliance manages more than US$2.5 billion in media flow.

“Chinese enterprises are entering a new phase of growth, with ambitions that extend well beyond individual markets or channels,” said Abhay Singhal, Co-founder of InMobi. “Our role is to bring together the platform access, consumer reach and AI-led intelligence they need to grow with greater consistency. Through InMobi Accelerate and Alliance, and our cross-screen, full–funnel capabilities via agentic AI and Glance, we are helping businesses connect fragmented touchpoints and turn them into more meaningful consumer engagement and measurable outcomes.”

Expanding Support for China’s Booming Short-Drama Industry

InMobi is also expanding its focus on the fast-growing short-drama industry, one of China’s most dynamic digital content categories. According to National Radio and Television Administration in 2025, the market surpassed RMB100 billion (US$14.7 billion) in 2025 and now includes more than 800 Chinese short-drama apps operating internationally.

As competition intensifies, user retention has become as important as user acquisition. Leveraging AI-powered retargeting, lifecycle marketing and audience intelligence capabilities, InMobi helps publishers re-engage viewers, recommend relevant content and improve long-term monetisation. The company plans to deepen its engagement with the short-drama ecosystem through creator partnerships, joint marketing initiatives and proprietary audience solutions that support sustainable growth in global markets.

Meet InMobi at ChinaJoy 2026

Attendees, media and industry partners are invited to visit InMobi during ChinaJoy 2026 to learn how the company is helping Chinese brands and developers accelerate growth across domestic and global markets.
