Figure Heloc BingX crosses 40 million users and leans into growth with its Beyond the Alpha campaign

BingX has closed out 2025 with a milestone that puts it firmly on the map among the world’s largest crypto exchanges. The platform has surpassed 40 million global users, doubling its user base year over year, and is marking the moment with a new initiative called “Beyond the Alpha.” The campaign is less about celebrating a number and more about signaling where BingX sees the next phase of crypto trading heading.
The growth comes at a time when the industry is maturing quickly. Users today expect more than just access to spot and futures markets. They want better tools, clearer risk controls, and platforms that can keep pace with both technology and regulation. BingX’s rapid expansion suggests it has found traction by leaning into those expectations rather than chasing short-term hype.
A big part of that strategy has been its push toward AI-driven trading. Earlier this year, the exchange committed $300 million toward building what it describes as an AI-native crypto platform. That effort has already attracted millions of early users to tools like BingX AI Bingo and BingX AI Master, which aim to surface market insights and decision support in a more intuitive way. Instead of replacing traders, the focus has been on helping them make sense of increasingly complex markets.
At the same time, BingX has experimented with blending centralized and decentralized models. Its Chainspot product introduces a CeDeFi-style approach, combining the speed and liquidity of a centralized exchange with on-chain transparency. While hybrid models are still being tested across the industry, the move reflects a broader search for balance between efficiency and trust.
On the trading side, the platform has continued to build depth. BingX now ranks among the top global derivatives venues, with upgrades designed to give traders more control over risk and execution. Features like Separate Isolated Margin Mode and deeper TradingView integration are aimed squarely at active users, while newer offerings such as pre-market futures and real-world asset index perpetuals point to a willingness to explore emerging market structures.
Spot trading has also evolved. With more than 1,100 trading pairs and connections to over 170 blockchain ecosystems, BingX has positioned itself as a place where new tokens often appear early. Faster listing pathways and curated access to emerging projects have helped keep spot markets active, especially among users looking beyond the largest assets.
One of BingX’s longest-running differentiators has been copy trading, and that product continues to scale. The platform’s copy trading community now includes hundreds of thousands of traders, with volumes that reflect real engagement rather than passive participation. The latest iteration, Copy Trading 2.0, focuses on cleaner workflows and greater customization, making it easier for users to follow strategies that actually fit their risk appetite.
Security and transparency have remained a constant theme alongside growth. BingX has maintained publicly verifiable proof of reserves since 2022 and backs that with a $150 million Shield Fund. Industry certifications, including ISO 27001 and PCI DSS for its fiat operations, are meant to reinforce that user protection is being treated as infrastructure, not marketing.
For its community, BingX has also expanded education and support. Updates to its VIP program and a refreshed BingX Academy reflect a broader effort to serve both high-volume traders and newcomers navigating crypto for the first time. Beyond the platform itself, the company has invested in Web3 startups through BingX Labs and supported social initiatives across Asia, signaling a longer-term view of its role in the ecosystem.
“Reaching 40 million users is more than just a number,” said Vivien Lin, Chief Product Officer at BingX. “It reflects the trust our users place in us and motivates us to keep pushing forward.”
The “Beyond the Alpha” campaign brings that message into focus, pairing user rewards with creative storytelling, including BingX’s first branded music video. As the platform moves into its next chapter, the emphasis seems clear: growth is only meaningful if it comes with better tools, stronger safeguards, and a clearer sense of where crypto trading is headed next.
