MEXC Launches Opportunity Compass as 53.7% of Crypto Users Move Into Stocks, Knowledge Gaps Remain

Mutsamudu, Comoros, September 9, 2026 – MEXC, a pioneer in 0-fee digital asset trading, today officially launchedOpportunity Compass, a global markets education initiative aimed at advancing the market understanding as crypto and traditional finance become increasingly connected.

Guided by the core message, “Know the Market, Know Your Opportunities,” the initiative is designed to help crypto-native users build a more systematic understanding of traditional and crypto markets while bringing together perspectives from across the broader financial and digital asset ecosystem.

The initiative comes as crypto users increasingly look beyond digital assets. Recentresearch from MEXC and CoinGecko found that trading volumes for traditional financial assets on crypto exchanges reached $1.45 trillion in the first half of 2026, nearly 10 times the total recorded for all of 2025.

Key findings from MEXC’s user survey include:

• 53.7% of respondents have already invested in stocks, showing that stock investing is becoming increasingly relevant to crypto-native users.
• Among users who have not used stock investment products, 43.1% cited insufficient investment knowledge as a key barrier.
• Among users who previously used stock products but stopped, 48.3% said limited investment knowledge was one of the reasons they discontinued participation.
• Among current stock investors, 44% said individual stock price movements influenced their participation, while 34% pointed to the AI boom as a key driver.
