Layoffs at centralized crypto exchanges are not uncommon
Earlier there was MEXC (Milk Tea) $MX, then JU (Aggregation Coin) $JU, and more exchange layoffs are expected.
The false prosperity brought by a bull market leads to short-term staff expansion, and both hiring and layoffs are severe in token listings and contract business development.
These roles are essentially sales; during a market downturn, poor performance of exchanges leads to layoffs, which have little impact on the core business of the exchange.
If exchanges start mass layoffs of product managers, developers, etc., it raises concerns about the platform's operation, potential bankruptcy risks, and the safety of users' funds on the exchange.
On-chain decentralized exchanges (DEX) such as Hyperliquid $HYPE and ASTER $ASTER deliver a dimensionality reduction strike against centralized exchanges (CEX), with productivity per person dozens to hundreds of times higher.
Currently, leading DEX teams have fewer than 100 people, whereas CEXs often have thousands or even several thousand staff; for example, Hyperliquid's contract business already accounts for 10% of Binance's volume, highlighting the productivity gap.
A real-life story: a friend used a JU token giveaway to cover a flight and hotel in a Southeast Asian country, then went all-in with $70,000 worth of JU, and now only has about $5,000–$7,000 left.
FUD news about MEXC has started spreading again in our country. Folks, three months ago when similar rumors emerged, I said the same thing:
Even though MEXC hosts a large number of projects and is seen by some as a 'gem dump', it could now be the second most used exchange worldwide after Binance.
Looking at the MX token revenues, listing processes, and overall operations, it is clear that MEXC is financially very strong.
Claims that this exchange will go bankrupt or shut down are completely baseless, just hearsay. No one would shut the door on such a huge revenue stream with their own hands.
