Dear BitMEX Users,
Today, we share with a very heavy heart that BitMEX exchange will shut down its operations, effective 23 September 2026 at 04:00:00 UTC.
The owner and operator of BitMEX, HDR Global Trading Limited, has made the difficult decision to close operations following a strategic review of the business.
It may not look the same today, but we are proud of our 11+ year legacy and the role we played in shaping the crypto industry. We invented the 100x leverage perpetual swap, which for most of you, was the first step to your crypto trading journey. It is now the most traded financial product in the crypto industry, adopted by thousands of users and exchanges. And we remain proud of our robust security infrastructure, which has allowed us to maintain a flawless track record of 0 customer funds lost to hacks in our entire operating history.
We want to reassure you that your assets remain fully safe and under your control during this transition period. This announcement is just to give enough time to ensure a smooth withdrawal process for everyone.
From today we strongly encourage all users to close their positions and withdraw their funds as soon as convenient. For more details on the full process, please read our blog: https://t.co/OOHeh6xHm8
BitMEX was once home to some of the greatest traders today. Our team has dedicated tremendous effort and passion into building the platform into what it is, and we are glad to have reached some of you during your time with us. To everyone who has traded, supported, and grown alongside us - thank you for your trust over the last 11 years.

- Long/short to buy/sell future tokens
- Hedge with no liquidation risk
- Decentralized settlement
[Updated] In response to community feedback, the short positions settlement window has been adjusted to within 4 hours post-TGE, while the long positions settlement opens 4 hours post-TGE.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you already know the four pillars of Veera’s onchain neobank.
They’re interconnected, actions in one strengthen the others, turning everyday activity into a compounding financial loop.
No fragmentation. Just one unified experience, across chains.
2013. The world was loud and moving fast. We started building.
From one idea to now over 50 million people around the world — every step shaped who we are.
Gate 13: The Journey. This is where it all began.
In 2013 after my postdoc, I chose to build on blockchain when it was barely a thing. No roadmap. No team. Just conviction.
13 years later, over 50 million users and weathered every cycle. Year 13 feels less like an anniversary, but more like a new starting point.
2013我博士后临了,决定进入大众还不熟悉的区块链领域。那时候没团队,没蓝图,只有信念
13年后,起起伏伏,我们有了5000多万用户。第13年,不只是为了庆祝,而是新的起点
