MEXC, a leading zero-fee digital asset trading platform, has released the first-month trading insights for its newly launched RealStocks product. The feature allows eligible users to purchase real US stocks and ETFs through a licensed securities broker partner. Launched on June 1, 2026, RealStocks quickly showed distinct trading patterns, with one event-driven name—SpaceX (ticker: SPCX)—capturing massive consensus and AI-related interest spreading beyond the most obvious tickers.
According to the data, SPCX accounted for 29.70% of June’s total trading volume and 29.06% of trading users, finishing far ahead of every other asset. The simultaneous rise in both metrics indicates that SpaceX attracted not just heavy volume from a narrow group of aggressive traders, but also broad participation from a wide user base placing modest orders—making it the firmest consensus holding of RealStocks’ opening month.
Seven AI-related assets—AAOI, MU, NVDA, MRVL, DRAM, AVGO, and SNDK—together accounted for 23.67% of total trading volume. These names span GPU compute, memory and storage, data center networking, and optical communications, reflecting how investor interest traveled well beyond the single best-known compute name and followed data center demand into its supply chain—a pattern that echoes the wider AI capital rotation seen across markets in June.
Three distinct trading structures emerged over the month:
- Well-known large caps: AAPL, MSFT, INTC, and GOOGL drew broad participation and widened overall user coverage.
- Core hot assets: SPCX, NVDA, MU, TSLA, SNDK, and MRVL combined wide participation with heavy activity.
- Narrower industry-chain names: AAOI, DRAM, STRC, and AVGO reached the top 10 by volume without reaching the top 10 by users, meaning fewer traders each contributed more. MRVL exemplifies this split, drawing 2.12% of trading users but 3.15% of volume.
Similar themes surfaced on both RealStocks and MEXC’s futures products: SPCX, MU, NVDA, SNDK, and MRVL ranked in the top 10 by volume for both. However, concentration diverged sharply. RealStocks’ top 10 assets made up 57.71% of volume versus roughly 84.94% for futures, leaving 42.29% of RealStocks volume spread across everything outside the leaderboard. AAOI, DRAM, TSLA, and AVGO placed high on RealStocks but ranked lower on futures, and STRC has no corresponding futures product.
“Futures follow the news cycle. RealStocks showed conviction as a portfolio product,” said Vugar Usi, CEO of MEXC. “More than 40% of first-month volume sat outside the top ten names. That is portfolio building, not headline trading. Our users finally got real access to this market and they used it like investors.”
RealStocks supports USDT funding, charges 0 trading fees, and delivers the ownership rights attached to real shares—including eligible dividend distributions. The product is supported by Atomic Vaults Securities (AVS), a FINRA-registered broker-dealer, providing access to real U.S. equities through regulated securities infrastructure. Over 120,000 users signed up during the first month; more than half of those new accounts went on to make a first deposit. As of July 27, 2026, RealStocks had settled dividends for 154 stocks and ETFs.
Alongside RealStocks, MEXC offers more than 260 stock and index futures products, tokenized US equities, and a Pre-IPO Launchpad—covering derivatives, on-chain exposure, and early-stage opportunities within a single account.
