Half of 2026 has already passed.
Over the past six months, the crypto industry has continued to advance amid change: the macro market has gradually recovered, AI technology has rapidly evolved, user trading habits have continuously shifted, and innovative products like Prediction Markets have surged in popularity, signaling that the digital assets sector is entering a more mature and diverse phase of development.
During this cycle, CoinUp has also encountered various voices and phased discussions from the market. Yet it is precisely this feedback that has strengthened our commitment to our long-term development direction.
Faced with a constantly changing market environment, CoinUp remains committed to one goal:
Continuously building a safer, more professional, and smarter digital asset trading platform to help every user easily participate in the Web3 world.
Looking back over the past six months, we have continuously enhanced our platform’s core capabilities, expanded our product ecosystem, actively grown our global market presence, and taken a significant step in our AI strategy. These achievements would not have been possible without the trust and support of every user, partner, and community member along the way.
The platform's overall strength continues to improve.
Improving platform capabilities has never been an overnight process.
In the first half of 2026, CoinUp continued to optimize its liquidity system, matching engine, order book depth, and risk control capabilities, continuously enhancing the platform’s overall stability and trading experience.
Driven by continuous product improvements and the expanding global user base, the platform’s overall trading activity has grown steadily. Spot trading volume has increased by approximately 150% year-over-year, while contract trading volume has risen by about 120% year-over-year. Platform liquidity and trading efficiency have further improved, consistently delivering a more stable and efficient trading experience to users worldwide.
With consistently growing trading volume, continuously improved product capabilities, and steadily advancing global expansion, CoinUp has long remained among the top 30 digital asset trading platforms worldwide and continues to earn recognition from users, partners, and the industry community globally.
Currently, CoinUp supports over 700 spot trading pairs and more than 100 futures products, with daily trading volumes consistently reaching billions of dollars and continuing to attract new users from numerous countries and regions worldwide.
Meanwhile, we continue to enhance our platform’s security and transparency through $3 billion in reserve assets, Proof of Reserves (PoR), and multi-layered security measures, providing users with a more transparent, secure, and trustworthy trading environment.
Maintaining a top 30 global ranking is not our destination, but a new beginning.
Looking ahead to the second half of the year, CoinUp will continue to strengthen its platform capabilities, driven by product innovation, technological advancement, liquidity development, and global operations, steadily moving toward its goal of becoming a top 20 digital asset trading platform worldwide.
We always believe that true competitiveness comes from long-term accumulation, not short-term growth.
Continuously enrich the product ecosystem
On the product side, CoinUp completed eight major app updates in the first half of 2026 and rolled out over 20 product and feature enhancements, covering multiple scenarios including trading experience, asset management, security systems, and account management.
We have launched Copy Trading to enable more users to participate in the market more easily; introduced Prediction Markets to expand more interactive trading scenarios by integrating with global hot events such as the World Cup; additionally, we continue to advance products like Simple Earn, Launchpad, Launchpool, and IEO to provide users with more opportunities to engage in the early development of high-quality projects.
In the first half of this year, CoinUp officially launched US stock trading, further expanding the range of tradable assets on the platform and enabling users to invest in both digital assets and global stock markets from a single platform, continuing to promote a more convenient and efficient one-stop experience for global asset allocation.
At the same time, we are officially launching the U Card, enabling users to truly “Earn on-chain, Spend in real life” by connecting on-chain assets with real-world spending scenarios.
We hope that digital assets will not only exist in wallets but also be truly integrated into daily life.
CP AI+ Strategy
AI is not just a trend—it's CoinUp's long-term strategy.
If the past few years saw the crypto industry transforming finance, today, AI is redefining how people interact with finance.
Therefore, this year we officially launched the CP AI+ strategy. For CoinUp, CP AI+ has never been a standalone product, but rather a long-term strategy integrated throughout the entire platform ecosystem.
In the future, AI will be gradually applied to core scenarios such as market analysis, trading assistance, strategy generation, risk management, and asset allocation, helping users reduce learning costs and improve decision-making efficiency.
Whether you're a professional trader or a newcomer to Web3, we want AI to make trading simpler and smarter.
Community Building and Long-Term Value
As of June 2026, we have conducted over 20 online campaigns and 9 offline brand events, reaching key markets such as Hong Kong, China, and Thailand.
Online, we continuously drive user engagement around themes such as the World Cup, Prediction Markets, Launchpool, and IEOs; offline, we connect product experiences, industry exchanges, and local communities through brand IPs like CoinUp Journey, Growth Hub, and CP Talk.
CoinUp's long-term growth depends not only on its products, but also on the collective participation of every user, partner, and community member.
In the first half of this year, we officially established the CoinUp Foundation to carry out long-term initiatives in areas such as educational support, community philanthropy, and Web3 adoption.
I believe that technological advancement should ultimately serve more people. We also strive to build a more open, healthy, and sustainable Web3 ecosystem through consistent action.
Looking ahead
In the future, CoinUp will continue to invest in product innovation, AI strategy, global community building, and user experience, continuously improving digital asset trading infrastructure and exploring more real-world use cases to make it easier for more people to enter the Web3 world.
At the same time, a new chapter in the brand’s story is beginning.
As the brand upgrade initiative progresses, CoinUp will enter a new phase of development, embracing a more international brand image, a more comprehensive product ecosystem, and a more open global strategy for the future.
Over the past six months, it has been a period of growth.
In the future, we look forward to going further together with every user, partner, and community member.
Thank you for being part of CoinUp.
The best is yet to come. 🚀
