Payward, a subsidiary of Binance, and MEXC discuss cooperation to jointly explore the new stage of the trading platform in the future
Muchamudu in Comoros, October 5, 2026 -MEXC, a pioneer of zero-fee digital asset trading platform, and Payward, Kraken's parent company, are negotiating to explore the possibility of cooperation between the two parties. The two platforms are working to study how exchanges can better serve users in an evolving global market.
The two companies will further discuss this issue at the TOKEN2049 Singapore conference. At that time, MEXC CEO Vugar Usi Zade and Payward co-CEO Arjun Sethi will attend the roundtable forum on the MEXC stage to discuss the next stage of the development of the trading platform and share more insights on inter-exchange cooperation.
Responding to market changes: From a single product to ecological synergy
This discussion comes at a time when the trading platform industry is facing multiple changes. Users are seeking broader access across cryptocurrencies and traditional financial markets; artificial intelligence is changing the way investors research and interact with trading tools; and social trading is opening up new avenues for discovery and market participation. In this context, exchanges are gradually focusing on moving beyond single products and focusing on how to more effectively integrate market access, infrastructure, liquidity and user experience.
As the platform evolves, exchange security and user asset protection will also become an important part of the dialogue.
Complementary advantages: Building differentiated competitiveness
In the process of continuous development of the exchange industry, each platform has established different advantages in terms of user experience, market access, infrastructure and trading capabilities. MEXC focuses on the retail user experience, deep liquidity and perpetual contract trading covering cryptocurrencies and traditional financial assets; while Payward brings global compliant financial infrastructure, professional trading capabilities and strong influence in the U.S. market. These differentiated advantages create space for exploring broader cooperation and are expected to create greater value for users.
Vugar Usi Zade, CEO of MEXC, said: "Users are increasingly looking for broader market access without adding complexity. The next phase of the transaction requires a strong user experience, liquidity, infrastructure and market access to collaborate more closely. As exchanges continue to evolve, the potential of cooperation within the industry to create more value for users has become increasingly prominent."
Outlook for TOKEN2049 Symposium
This TOKEN2049 Symposium will be held on the MEXC stage from 12:30 to 13:00 on October 7. The conference will discuss in depth trends reshaping the trading industry, how exchanges respond to changing user expectations, and the potential value of strengthened cooperation between platforms. In addition, discussions will cover the integration of crypto assets and traditional finance, the growing role of artificial intelligence in transactions, and possible evolution paths for global trading platforms as markets and infrastructure become increasingly connected.
