MEXC rolls out Futures Earn.
Earn up to 15% APR on idle futures balances.
MEXC just dropped a new passive income tool called Futures Earn — and it’s an interesting twist. Instead of leaving your margin balance doing nothing, the exchange now pays you interest on USDT and $USDC sitting in futures accounts. That includes free cash, margin for open trades, even assets locked in pending orders.
The system has two layers:
🔹 Base APR on all balances
🔹 Bonus APR (up to +12%) depending on the net value of your open positions
Together, the cap is 15% annualized yield — not bad for funds you’d have on the platform anyway. For now, it’s available on USDT-M and USDC-M perps, with COIN-M to come later.
My feeling? It’s clever marketing — rewarding traders for keeping capital parked. But comme toujours, “yield” on CEX products comes with counterparty risk. The 15% carrot is nice, but never forget who’s holding your chips.
