MEXC Launches Stock Futures: Trade Top U.S. Stocks Using USDT

MEXC is making waves again, this time by giving traders a bold new way to access the U.S. stock market. With the launch of Stock Futures, you can now trade price movements of top American companies like Apple, Nvidia, Tesla, and more—all using USDT. The best part? No trading or funding fees for a limited time.

If you’ve been looking for a frictionless, crypto-powered way into U.S. equities, this is it.

Key takeaways:

  • Trade U.S. stocks using USDT with up to 5x leverage
  • Zero trading and funding fees for a limited time
  • No 3rd parties or brokers needed, fully crypto-native access via MEXC

Trade the U.S. Stock Market with Crypto

MEXC’s Stock Futures let you speculate on the price of real U.S. stocks without owning the actual shares. These are USDT-margined perpetual futures that mirror the performance of well-known companies like COIN, HOOD, NVDA, AAPL, AMZN, GOOGL, META, TSLA, and MCD.

It’s real-time, high-leverage stock trading, but without the need for a broker or bank account.

Key Features of MEXC Stock Futures

  • Trade in Sync with Wall Street: The new Stock Futures align with official U.S. market hours. When Wall Street opens, so does your trading window. Outside those hours, you can still manage your margin or cancel orders—but new trades will wait until markets reopen.
  • 0 Fees, 5x Leverage: For a limited time, MEXC is waiving both trading and funding fees. Combine that with up to 5x leverage, and you’ve got serious profit potential—if you play it smart.
  • Fair Prices, Anchored to Reality: Each Stock Future is priced based on its underlying U.S. stock, meaning you’re trading close to the real-world value—not some off-market estimate.
  • Simple, Crypto-Native Access: No broker? No problem. Just use your USDT to trade. MEXC’s interface is designed like its Perpetual Futures platform, so if you’ve traded crypto derivatives before, you’ll feel right at home.

How Stock Futures Differ from Tokenized Stocks

You might’ve heard that MEXC recently launched xStocks, Solana-based tokenized U.S. equities like COINX/USDT and NVDAX/USDT. These are already live on the Spot market.

So what’s the difference?

  • xStocks give you exposure to tokenized shares via spot trading. They behave like traditional crypto tokens and are useful for longer-term holding or investing.
  • Stock Futures, on the other hand, are derivatives—perfect for short-term trades, hedging, and leveraging price swings, with no need to hold the underlying asset.

Both offer U.S. stock exposure, but Stock Futures are built for speed and strategy. xStocks are more about building a diversified, tokenized portfolio.

Stock Futures are Big News

This isn’t just another feature drop. MEXC is one of the few platforms offering leveraged U.S. stock trading in crypto, without KYC, and now with two distinct ways to access the U.S. market:

  1. Spot trading with xStocks
  2. Perpetual trading with Stock Futures

It’s a big leap forward for crypto-native finance and a major win for global traders who’ve been locked out of traditional stock investing.

If we don’t count tokenized stocks, the only other major crypto exchanges with stocks trading are Bybit and PrimeXBT. PrimeXBT doesn’t have a great deal of stocks on offer, but does also have a no-KYC policy, therefore can be used by just about anyone. On the other hand, Crypto.com and Kraken both have stocks trading, but only in the United States.

In short, with both tokenized stocks and stock futures, MEXC becomes one of the best options for traders who want exposure to traditional markets.

Ready to Trade U.S. Stocks with USDT?

Here’s how to get started:

  1. Visit MEXC website or update the MEXC app to version 6.17.0 or higher
  2. Log in and navigate to the new Stock Futures section
  3. Choose your stock, select long or short, and set your leverage
  4. Trade during U.S. market hours and manage positions with real-time price tracking

With zero fees, 5x leverage, and instant access using just USDT, there’s no easier way to tap into the American market. If you wish to trade smart and short the top on Nvidia’s eventual downturn, consider doing it on MEXC!
