On August 4, 2025, WEEX, a leading cryptocurrency exchange successfully completed its second-quarter burn of WEEX Token (WXT), in line with its token burn schedule. The total amount burned was 60,509,555 WXT, representing approximately 0.61% of the token’s total supply, valued around 2 million USD at the time of burning, reflecting the continued commitment of WEEX to its long-term growth and tokenomics structure.
The Burn Continues: WEEX’s Strategic Token Burn Schedule
WEEX conducted its first-ever token burn on January 31, 2025, burning a significant 4,000,000,000 WXT (40% of the total supply). Moving forward, the company plans to conduct quarterly burns, typically completed at the start of each quarter. WEEX will allocate 20% of its quarterly profits from trading fees, including futures and spot trading, listing charges, and other sources, to buy back and burn WXT tokens, reinforcing its commitment to creating a deflationary mechanism for the token.
Unlocking Value: The Benefits of Holding and Burning WXT
As the platform’s native token, WXT enhances user engagement and loyalty, driving WEEX’s growth and competitiveness by offering exclusive benefits, reducing trading fees, and incentivizing long-term holding. WXT holders will be eligible for periodic airdrops of new tokens, boosting their exposure to new profiting opportunities. The amount of WXT held will also influence a user’s VIP status, offering more exclusive privileges and lower trading fees. Additionally, trading agents who hold WXT tokens will receive higher profit-sharing rates, incentivizing active participation in the platform.
The WXT token burn mechanism serves as a key element of WEEX’s growth strategy, reducing the token supply to support long-term value appreciation. Since its launch at $0.01 in August 2023, the price of WXT has skyrocketed by 340%, reaching $0.034 at the time of writing, reflecting increasing market confidence. In alignment with platform revenues, a positive cycle is formed that not only rewards loyal users but also fosters sustainable growth for both the platform and the token’s value.
A Vision for the Future: WEEX’s Path to Global Market Leadership
WEEX has achieved significant milestones so far in 2025, including expanding its global team to over 500 members, establishing an international studio in Dubai, and securing a BSP license. Leveraging these strategic moves and its market leading futures liquidity, WEEX aims to reach over 10 million global users and exceed $10 billion in daily trading volume, positioning the platform for continued growth and success. The WXT burn program plays a vital role in this vision, creating a healthy ecosystem that benefits both the platform and its beloved users.
