The major cryptocurrency exchange HTX has officially launched a series of events dedicated to its 13th anniversary. The campaign, running under the slogan "Reliability, Proven by Time," started on August 13, 2026, at 08:13 Moscow time and will last exactly one month. During this period, participants will need to complete 13 growth challenge trials, ignite symbolic "treasures of the future," and unlock multi-level rewards, including a chance at the grand prize.

The mechanics of the promotion are designed so that rewards are earned for every step forward. The prize pool includes: a grant for future research worth 2000 USDT, a fully paid trip to the TOKEN2049 conference in Singapore with airfare and accommodation, exclusive limited-edition anniversary gifts, as well as daily cash payouts drawn at 08:13 MSK.

Accessible entry threshold and variety of scenarios

Many users wonder whether such challenges are designed exclusively for large traders. HTX took this into account and provided different ways to participate, so that both beginners and experienced users can find tasks suited to their trading habits. The entry threshold is minimal: to activate the first "treasure," it is enough to post an anniversary wish or purchase HTX for 50 USDT. Spot trades of 130 USDT unlock another treasure, while individual tasks are tied to specific products — Earn, margin trading, futures, P2P, online deposits, trading bots, and even TradFi.

The thirteen tasks cover various products and scenarios, so it is not necessary to take on all challenges at once. Each ignited treasure brings you closer to the next level of festive rewards.

From 3 to 13 treasures: rewards grow

The value of the promotion lies not only in the final prize but also in the intermediate stages. Users complete tasks, undergo systematic verification, and unlock multi-level privileges:

• 3 treasures — a basic growth gift.
• 6 treasures — an enhanced growth gift.
• 9 treasures — HTX tokens and other random rewards.
• 11 treasures — eligibility for a cash prize for the 13th anniversary. The claiming window opens daily at 08:13 MSK, quantities are limited, and distribution is on a first-come, first-served basis.
• 13 treasures — the main milestone. Participants receive significant rewards in $HTX, and after publishing the campaign banner, a chance to enter the grand prize drawing.

The grand prize includes a research grant of 2000 USDT, a fully paid trip to TOKEN2049 in Singapore, and a premium limited-edition gift for HTX's 13th anniversary.

$1 million prize pool: there are many ways to celebrate

In addition to the "treasures of the future," HTX is running a series of special events with a total prize pool of one million dollars. It covers spot, futures, margin trading, and other areas. There is no single path to prizes: both those who have come to the exchange for the first time and those familiar with its product ecosystem will find a suitable way to participate. The earlier you start, the more time you have to complete tasks and unlock higher levels of privileges.

Thirteen years of gratitude in real rewards

HTX's journey over thirteen years has run parallel to the development of the global digital asset industry. Some users made their first-ever digital asset trade here, while others have gone through several market cycles alongside the platform. Every contact, choice, suggestion, and review has turned the thirteenth anniversary not just into a brand milestone, but into a journey shared with users around the world. Rewards do not fully measure this support, but they give the company a tangible way to express gratitude to the community.

Join the celebration today

The thirteen growth challenge tasks are now open, and thirteen "treasures of the future" await their turn. The million-dollar prize pool, festive cash rewards, HTX payouts, and the grand prize are ready to be unlocked. The promotion will run from 08:13 MSK on August 13 to 08:13 MSK on September 13, 2026. HTX invites the global community to take on this challenge together: one completed task — one ignited treasure of the future.

About HTX

The company was founded in 2013 and has grown from a virtual asset exchange into a blockchain ecosystem that encompasses digital asset trading, derivative financial instruments, research, investment, and project incubation. HTX operates as a global gateway to Web3 and relies on global infrastructure to provide secure services. The company's growth strategy is built on four principles: global expansion, a thriving ecosystem, the wealth effect, and security and regulatory compliance.

My analysis: Such anniversary campaigns are not just marketing, but a well-thought-out tool for retaining audiences and stimulating activity in a highly competitive exchange environment. Tying tasks to different products (from spot to TradFi) looks like a smart move for cross-selling and engaging users in the ecosystem. However, it is worth carefully reviewing the reward accrual terms at intermediate levels — that is often where restrictions are hidden that could reduce the real value of participation.
