PRESS RELEASE.
A Year in Review: Initial Listings Are Not Accidental, but Strategic
Through partnerships with premium projects and sustained focus on initial listings, HTX repeatedly positioned itself as a market front-runner. Many assets first listed on HTX were later adopted by major exchanges such as Binance, allowing HTX users to benefit not only from lower entry prices, but also from cross-platform valuation premiums.
1. Macro Narratives: Early Positioning Before Consensus Forms
2. Community Sentiment and Ecosystem Cycle: Capturing the BSC and CZ Narrative
3. Forward-Looking Narratives: Early Coverage over AI Agent, DeFAI, and Payment Sectors
HTX positioned itself ahead of the explosion in AI Agent and DeFAI narratives. PIPPIN, listed in January, achieved a 95x peak increase by November, becoming one of the most representative wealth-creation assets in the AI Agent sector.
Furthermore, HTX has taken the lead in listing assets that fully cover the emerging x402 sector. By being the first to list the Base leader project PING and the Solana-based x402 leader PAYAI, HTX witnessed a phased doubling in the assets’ value following Coinbase’s launch of the x402 V2. Consequently, HTX has become the sole trading platform to support the core assets of this specific track.
Beyond high-heat narratives, HTX maintained a strategic focus on infrastructure-driven, application-oriented sectors.
Outlook 2026: Tapping Value-Driven Assets and Doubling Down on Initial Listings
HTX, highlighting longtermism, is building a secure, transparent, and self-sustaining asset ecosystem, positioning itself as a reliable global platform for value discovery.
