Global cryptocurrency exchange MEXC has officially launched its own Prediction Market, aiming to capture the surging demand for event-based trading by offering zero fees and millisecond-level execution.
The new platform allows traders to speculate on the outcomes of real-world events, transforming global trends, policy shifts, and geopolitical developments directly into trading opportunities.
The Rise of Event-Based Trading
MEXC’s entry into this sector comes at a time when prediction markets are experiencing explosive growth.
According to data from The Block cited by MEXC, leading decentralized and regulated prediction platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi collectively processed over $18 billion in trades in February 2026 alone. This represents a massive 9x increase from their trading volumes in August 2025.
For crypto traders, these markets increasingly serve dual purposes: acting as a real-time gauge of public sentiment (information reference) and providing a tool to hedge portfolios against sudden macroeconomic or geopolitical shocks.
MEXC’s Feature Pitch
To differentiate itself from existing competitors, the MEXC Prediction Market is highlighting three key system enhancements geared toward active traders:
- Ultra-Low Transaction Costs: The platform currently charges zero trading fees and zero settlement fees, while promising minimal slippage across all event categories to maximize traders’ actual returns.
- Millisecond-Level Latency: MEXC claims its centralized infrastructure allows for trade execution speeds that are 30x faster than comparable products on the market, ensuring a seamless experience during highly volatile events.
- Centralized Security and Integration: Unlike purely on-chain prediction markets, MEXC’s offering is seamlessly integrated into its broader crypto trading ecosystem. This allows users to flexibly manage funds within a single account, backed by a CEX-grade security framework to mitigate on-chain operational risks.
Turning Uncertainty into Price
“Prediction markets turn uncertainty into price. The next frontier of trading isn’t just assets, it’s outcomes,” stated Vugar Usi, Chief Operating Officer of MEXC.
Usi emphasized that the platform is designed to give users the tools to move before outcomes become reality. “At MEXC, we’re transforming global events into real-time probability signals traders can act on instantly, with zero fees, millisecond execution… completing the full loop of judgment, trading, and risk management within a single account.”
The MEXC Prediction Market is now live on both the MEXC App and web platform. The initial batch of tradable markets covers a variety of categories, including geopolitical events, macroeconomic developments, and major crypto industry milestones.
