HTX launches a grand 13th anniversary celebration: a $1 million prize pool and a hunt for "treasures of the future"
The cryptocurrency exchange HTX has officially launched a series of events dedicated to its 13th anniversary. The celebration began on August 13 at 08:13 Moscow time and will last exactly one month. The key feature of the anniversary campaign is a prize pool of $1 million, which will be distributed among participants who complete the tasks of a special "growth challenge."
The mechanics of the promotion are built around the concept of "treasures of the future." Users will need to complete 13 challenges covering various exchange products—from spot trading to Earn, margin trading, futures, P2P, and even TradFi instruments. It is important to note that the entry threshold is minimal: to activate the first "treasure," it is enough to post a birthday wish or purchase HTX worth at least 50 USDT. Spot trades of 130 USDT unlock access to the next level.
Reward progression: from basic gifts to the grand prize
The reward system is designed to motivate participants to complete all stages. The more "treasures" are lit, the more valuable the rewards:
- 3 treasures — a basic gift for getting started.
- 6 treasures — an expanded set of bonuses.
- 9 treasures — HTX tokens and random prizes.
- 11 treasures — the right to a daily cash reward (the activation window opens at 08:13 Moscow time, the quantity is limited, and distribution is on a first-come, first-served basis).
- 13 treasures — the main milestone. Participants receive substantial payouts in $HTX, and after publishing the campaign banner, a chance to compete for the super prize.
The grand prize includes a research grant of 2000 USDT, a fully paid trip to TOKEN2049 in Singapore (airfare and accommodation), as well as an exclusive limited-edition gift set released for the exchange's 13th anniversary.
Market analysis: why this matters
Such large-scale campaigns are not just a marketing move but an indicator of the platform's health. HTX, founded in 2013, has survived several market cycles and continues to actively compete for users. Notably, the promotion covers not only high-volume traders but also beginners, which indicates the exchange's desire to expand its audience.
From my expert point of view, participating in such challenges is beneficial, especially if you already actively use the exchange's products. The tasks do not require excessive risks—they simply reward you for your usual activity. However, it is worth remembering the rules of capital management: you should not increase trading volumes solely for the sake of rewards if this contradicts your trading strategy.
The anniversary campaign will run until 08:13 Moscow time on September 13, 2026. Given that "treasures" are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, especially for daily cash prizes, I recommend not postponing your start until the last day.
