Digital asset exchange Hata has announced that it has surpassed RM100 million in trading volume since its launch.
The milestone coincides with Bitcoin’s price exceeding US$100,000, reflecting increased activity in the cryptocurrency market.
Hata’s trading volume highlights its ability to handle growing demand, supported by its infrastructure and market liquidity.
The platform caters to both retail and institutional investors, offering a regulated environment for digital asset trading.
Bitcoin’s recent rally, driven by increased institutional participation and rising retail interest, has fueled optimism across the global and Malaysian crypto markets.
The surge reflects broader market dynamics that have positioned cryptocurrencies as a key area of financial innovation.
Hata operates as a dual-licensed exchange in Malaysia, adhering to regulatory standards for trading activities.
The global crypto market capitalisation has now exceeded US$2.79 trillion, with Bitcoin maintaining a dominant position.
This environment has contributed to rising demand for platforms facilitating digital asset trading.
