MEXC Adds Auto-Funding, Recurring Buys to RealStocks Stock Platform

The recurring-investment feature is the most significant change for long-term holders, said a person familiar with the product. It removes the need to place manual orders each cycle, which matters for users who treat stock purchases as a regular allocation rather than a one-off trade.

MEXC runs a parallel tokenized stock product for users who want blockchain-based exposure. The difference between the two is settlement: RealStocks delivers actual shares through a brokerage intermediary, while tokenized stocks are synthetic tokens that track the underlying price. The exchange also offers stock futures and a Pre-IPO Launchpad for early-stage allocations.

In July, MEXC offered zero-fee trading on 995 pairs and said the program saved users $112 million in fees. The exchange's 0808 Stock Season event is live through August, with zero fees on RealStocks, tokenized stocks and stock futures, plus a $500,000 prize pool.

MEXC claims 40 million users across 170 markets and lists more than 3,000 digital assets. The exchange has pushed into cross-asset trading as crypto-native platforms compete for users who want a single interface for stocks, crypto and tokenized products.
