The cryptocurrency landscape in 2025 is drastically different than just a few years ago.

Founded in 2018, it now serves 36 million users across 200 countries, boasting over 3,000 listed tokens and daily volumes that consistently rank within the global top 10. But is MEXC staying on course with these trends or simply trying to cover too much ground? This review takes a closer look.
