Binance Annual Revenue Grew 10x Over the Past 2 Years, While OKX’s Grew 4x

Binance‘s and OKX‘s annual revenue grew 10x and 4x over the past two years, respectively, while Huobi’s quarterly revenue fell by -98% since the second quarter of 2021, as reported by CryptoQuant.com.

Binance

Binance’s quarterly revenue started to grow exponentially in 2021 and maintained its growth throughout the year. The exchange’s annual revenue reached around $12 billion in 2022.

However, the exchange’s trading volumes started to fall at the end of 2022, which also lowered the estimated quarterly revenue. In December 2022, Binance lost 90,000 Bitcoin (BTC) from its reserves in a single week. According to data from Jan. 9, the exchange saw $12 billion worth of withdrawals in the previous two months. The exchange’s trading volume also hit its two-months low on Dec. 23, reaching $9.39 billion.

OKX

According to CryptoQuant, OKX’s revenue recorded 4x organic growth over the past two years.

The exchange burns its native token OKB or repurchases them based on spot trading fee revenue. The burned OKB tokens recorded an increase of 600% in 2021, increasing from $12.5 million to $87.5 million. The token’s spot trading volume also recorded a parallel growth, reaching almost $3 billion on January 2022.

Huobi

In the meantime, Huobi Global’s quarterly revenue has been recording a steady decrease since April 2021.

In April 2021, the exchange recorded $1.25 billion in revenue, only to drop below $250 million by 2022. Based on the data, the exchange is expected to come even closer to zero in quarterly revenue by 2023.

The exchange decided to retreat from China in November 2021, even though it was the dominant exchange in the Chinese market at the time. In October 2022, Huobi’s founder sold his shares, which corresponded to 60% of the company. On December 2022, the community was informed that Huobi was struggling with the winter conditions and could start layoffs.

Even though Huobi’s CEO denied these claims on Jan. 2, the exchange said it was planning to lay off 20% of its staff on Jan.6. On Jan.5, over $60 million worth of crypto left Huobi’s reserves within 24 hours. On Jan.9, Huobi Korea announced that it is separating itself from Huobi Global to become an independent entity.

  • Hyperliquid Policy Center Urges US SEC and CFTC to Adopt Unified Perpetual Contract Framework

    On August 25, the Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) submitted comments to the US SEC and CFTC, stating that the two agencies have been striving to find answers regarding the classification of perpetual contracts over the past year. HPC believes that perpetual contracts for stocks, which possess traditional features of futures contracts, can be classified as securities futures. HPC urges the US SEC and CFTC to establish a unified classification system for perpetual contracts, based on the characteristics of each contract and its trading methods, grouping similar products together regardless of whether they reference Bitcoin, crude oil, or individual securities. HPC calls for the US SEC and CFTC to take the following four actions: 1. Confirm that the definition of securities futures includes the established features of futures contracts, allowing cash-settled stock perpetual contracts with these features to be listed as securities futures. 2. Retain the flexibility that trading venues currently have in making product listing decisions. 3. Maintain consistency in classification between the two agencies so that perpetual contracts, regardless of the underlying asset, receive the same threshold classification. 4. Modernize the securities futures framework to revitalize the category and adapt to new product structures.
