> Selected spot pairs will carry zero maker fees for three months, and a trading challenge will offer a 50,000 USDT prize pool.

HTX has scheduled Monday, Nov. 9, to begin spot trading for several U.S. stock tokens and exchange-traded fund products, tying the market opening to a fee promotion and trading challenge.

The fee waiver will apply to maker transactions completed on designated U.S. stock-token spot pairs. Qualifying trades will carry no fee for three consecutive months.

The trading challenge offers participants a chance to share a 50,000 USDT prize pool and compete for an iPhone Duo grand prize. Early registration is open to users seeking to secure campaign eligibility.

The early-registration period ends Sunday, Nov. 8, at 10:59 a.m. ET (15:59 UTC), one day before HTX’s planned start of spot trading.
