🇺🇸 TOKEN2049 IS COMING TO NEW YORK 🇺🇸 16-17 June 2027

Alpaca is expanding our regulatory presence to Singapore, furthering our global regulatory footprint! 🇸🇬 Our Southeast Asian headquarters, Alpaca Securities Pte. Ltd. (“Alpaca Singapore”), has received In-Principle Approval (IPA) from the @mas_sg for a Capital Markets Services (CMS) license! Once fully licensed, Alpaca Singapore plans to provide local brokerage and custodial services, acting as a regulated local counterparty for financial institutions and fintechs across the region. “As financial institutions across Southeast Asia look to meet growing customer demand for international investing, Singapore is a natural hub for connecting the region’s investors to global markets. This milestone strengthens our ability to support institutions locally with global brokerage infrastructure, regional expertise, and a strong regulatory foundation. We’re excited to help our partners expand the markets and investment products available to their customers and shape the next era of investing across Southeast Asia,” said Rohit Mulani, President of Alpaca Southeast Asia. Disclosure: An in-principle approval (IPA) reflects MAS' view that a license may be issued to the applicant upon the fulfillment of specified conditions and provided there are no material adverse developments affecting the applicant. An IPA does not constitute a license for Alpaca Securities Pte. Ltd. to provide brokerage and custodial services at this juncture. MAS reserves the right to rescind the IPA in circumstances where it considers appropriate.

Dear BitMEX Users, Today, we share with a very heavy heart that BitMEX exchange will shut down its operations, effective 23 September 2026 at 04:00:00 UTC. The owner and operator of BitMEX, HDR Global Trading Limited, has made the difficult decision to close operations following a strategic review of the business. It may not look the same today, but we are proud of our 11+ year legacy and the role we played in shaping the crypto industry. We invented the 100x leverage perpetual swap, which for most of you, was the first step to your crypto trading journey. It is now the most traded financial product in the crypto industry, adopted by thousands of users and exchanges. And we remain proud of our robust security infrastructure, which has allowed us to maintain a flawless track record of 0 customer funds lost to hacks in our entire operating history. We want to reassure you that your assets remain fully safe and under your control during this transition period. This announcement is just to give enough time to ensure a smooth withdrawal process for everyone. From today we strongly encourage all users to close their positions and withdraw their funds as soon as convenient. For more details on the full process, please read our blog: bitmex.com/blog/bitmex-closu… BitMEX was once home to some of the greatest traders today. Our team has dedicated tremendous effort and passion into building the platform into what it is, and we are glad to have reached some of you during your time with us. To everyone who has traded, supported, and grown alongside us - thank you for your trust over the last 11 years. The BitMEX Team
