Crypto exchange HTX said on Thursday that monthly TradFi futures trading volume surpassed $1 billion in May after it expanded the offering to 75 assets, according to its May 2026 performance report.
The exchange added 51 assets during the month, 42 of which were stock-linked contracts. The TradFi lineup now covers AI semiconductors, consumer finance, new energy and advanced technology, with names including AMD, ARM, JPM, NFLX and pre-IPO proxy contracts for SpaceX, OpenAI and Anthropic.
The products are USDT-margined perpetual futures, giving crypto-native users 24/7 access to stock- and commodity-linked exposure without moving capital off the exchange.
Overall futures trading volume rose 5% month-over-month, HTX said. Total platform volume was up 3.11%.
HTX also released its latest Merkle Tree proof-of-reserves data on June 1, showing reserve ratios above 100% across major digital assets. The exchange said it has now published 44 consecutive monthly PoR reports.
HTX also launched a User Appreciation Program running from June 1 to June 15 with an airdrop valued at over $10 million. CoinMarketCap data cited in the report showed HTX ranked first among major centralized exchanges in seven-day net capital inflows as of June 10, with over $27.5 million.
