A note from BitMEX

BitMEX invented the crypto perpetual swap. When we launched in 2014 with a simple mission: professional-grade crypto derivatives for everyone - very few people expected it to become the foundation of the modern crypto derivatives market. The 100x leverage perpetual swap, which BitMEX created, is now the most traded financial product in the industry, replicated by thousands of platforms worldwide.

Over 11 years, we never lost a single satoshi to a hack. That record stands.

To every trader who ever placed an order on BitMEX: this platform existed because of you. Thank you.
