How do exchanges stabilize their footing during extreme market conditions? Check out these key indicators

[BiTu] The market has been volatile this year, but some exchanges remain as solid as a rock. The CEO of a leading exchange mentioned an interesting point in the year-end summary: Financial freedom is not a pipe dream, but a state where the system can still remain reliable, verifiable, and give users the right to choose under stress testing.

Data speaks for itself. On the most chaotic day in October, the platform processed 1.72 million transactions per second, with order latency controlled within 20 microseconds—what does this number mean? Many people may not have experienced it, but compared to industry standards, this is a different level. Over the year, the platform maintained an asset redundancy of 3%-5%, with regular reserve proof publications, and the reserve rates of major cryptocurrencies have always exceeded 100%.

Security has also not been relaxed. Anti-fraud measures, self-custody, and compliance market expansion have been ongoing. The global trading volume increased by 16% year-over-year, and DEX volumes grew even more—262%. The user base also surpassed 120 million. In simple terms, during market turbulence, some platforms chose to tough it out, earning trust through data and transparency. This approach still offers valuable lessons for the industry.
