Published: 2024-06-12 07:14:24 |

On 13 June 2024 at 04:00 UTC, BitMEX will update the base Taker and Maker fees on all its Spot markets. Both the Taker fee and the Maker fee will be set to 10bps (0.10%). These changes will apply to all new spot trades made on or after the stated date and time until further notice. Discounts on spot trading, such as BMEX Token staking discounts and referral discounts, will remain the same. This adjustment is an important update for traders using BitMEX’s spot trading services.

The fee changes announced by BitMEX are relatively minor and apply uniformly to both Taker and Maker fees, suggesting a neutral impact on market stability and trading activities. Historical precedents indicate that similar fee adjustments have not caused significant market disturbances. It is unlikely to create a bullish or bearish sway in trading behavior short-term.
