Seychelles, February 10, 2025 — MEXC, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange, has launched a landmark celebration of Bitcoin’s continued market dominance with a trading event titled “Buy BTC for $1“, symbolically pricing Bitcoin at $1 to commemorate its journey from around $1 in 2011 to over $100,000 in 2024. The celebration features a massive 350,000 USDT prize pool, demonstrating MEXC’s commitment to rewarding its community.
This initiative, running from February 9 to 12, 2025, comes at a notable moment in Bitcoin’s transformation. The leading cryptocurrency’s extraordinary trajectory has reshaped the financial landscape, evolving from a niche digital asset to a major investment vehicle. MEXC has been instrumental in this evolution by providing professional-grade trading infrastructure and robust liquidity for various market participants. In 2024, MEXC not only ranked among the top global exchanges with an 11.6% spot market share but also recorded the highest year-over-year growth in derivatives trading among major exchanges.
Eligible KYC-verified users, both new and existing, can participate in the “Buy BTC for $1” event through Futures trading on MEXC’s platform. The event’s 350,000 USDT prize pool will be distributed among participants based on their trading volume, with higher trading volumes increasing their chances of winning a larger share.
“Even amid recent turbulence in the crypto market, Bitcoin remains the cornerstone of crypto investment. Currently, Bitcoin serves as the main driver of the mainstream adoption of cryptocurrency, with its price breaking the $1 mark in February 2011 and surpassing $100,000 in December 2024, continuing its upward trend. This new event is a prime example of how we create exciting, unique opportunities for our users, enabling them to engage with the market at an unimaginable price point. It’s an exciting way for both seasoned traders and newcomers to benefit from the incredible potential of Bitcoin,” said Tracy Jin, Vice President at MEXC.
