The cryptocurrency exchange BitMEX accelerated the delisting of 65 derivative contracts and spot trading pairs in July, far exceeding the 19 that were delisted in the first six months of this year. The platform attributed the delisting to "insufficient trading interest" and stated that this move is related to its decision to close the exchange. Previously, BitMEX announced that it would officially cease operations on September 23, but did not disclose the specific reason for the closure.Restructuring advisor Roshan Dharia stated that the shutdown of BitMEX reflects the structural pressures faced by mid-sized centralized exchanges: liquidity continues to concentrate on leading platforms, while compliance costs are continuously rising. Earlier, the on-chain analysis platform Bubblemaps revealed that 75% of the total supply of BitMEX tokens BMEX (originally intended for employee incentives, ecosystem growth, and long-term reserves) was never allocated as planned, with the only claim occurring in November 2022. After the shutdown announcement, the price of BMEX dropped by approximately 95%.

Binance founder Zhao Changpeng paid tribute to BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes. It's unfortunate to see BitMEX shut down. Some thoughts:BitMEX was the first to launch 100x cryptocurrency trading back in 2014. Futures contracts had existed before this, making Friday trading exceptionally busy. BitMEX only accepted Bitcoin deposits, supported only one chain, allowed withdrawals once a day, and required multi-signature wallets. These seemingly inconvenient restrictions actually protected them from hacker attacks.After 18 months of struggle, the four founders ultimately admitted to violating the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) a month before the trial. They were each fined $10 million and placed under house arrest. No one went to prison as a result. However, their business ultimately could not withstand the "cryptocurrency war" initiated by the Biden administration.In the end, the liquidation process of BitMEX appeared orderly, and users were able to withdraw their assets. Tribute to Arthur Hayes.

Bitget appeared as a sponsor at the WikiFX exhibition. Bitget CFD Chief Analyst Lewis Huang delivered a speech titled "One Account, Invest Globally: The Cross-Asset Trading Revolution in the UEX Era," pointing out the core pain points faced by active traders today: "Opportunities are global, but capital is fragmented."In response to this situation, Bitget proposed the concept of the panoramic exchange UEX. Lewis Huang stated that what traders need is not more apps, but a highly integrated trading ecosystem. Relying on the Bitget UEX architecture and cross-asset margin mechanism, users only need one account, one KYC verification, and a unified capital pool to configure diverse assets such as cryptocurrencies, U.S. stocks, foreign exchange, precious metals, and global indices. This helps traders quickly seize opportunities when macro trends arise, achieving a global, cross-asset one-stop layout.
