What is the HTX DAO cryptocurrency?

HTX DAO is a decentralized autonomous organization tied to the HTX crypto exchange (formerly Huobi, rebranded in September 2023) and the TRON ecosystem. The HTX governance token exists as a TRC-20 asset on TRON, with mirrored versions on Ethereum and BNB Chain. Since April 2025, HTX holders vote on-chain on proposals covering exchange committee governance and listing decisions.

Is HTX DAO related to the HTX exchange (formerly Huobi)?

Yes. HTX DAO is tied to the HTX exchange, which rebranded from Huobi in September 2023 after the exchange's 2022 acquisition. The exchange acts as the primary backer of HTX DAO and funds the HTX burn program from quarterly revenue. That concentration means the project's credibility and deflation mechanics depend on a single ecosystem partner in the TRON orbit.

How does HTX DAO governance and voting work?

HTX governance runs on a holding-based on-chain voting system launched on April 7, 2025. Holders vote through a TRON wallet under a "one token, one vote" three-tier structure. The first proposals, HIP-001 and HIP-002, were approved on April 17, 2025. "Listing Governance 2.0" extended community voting to exchange listing and delisting decisions in July 2025.

What is HTX's total supply and tokenomics?

HTX has a fixed total and maximum supply of 999,990,000,000,000 tokens (about 999.99 trillion) — per DropsTab data, matching the whitepaper's stated initial supply. The whitepaper allocates 19% to early contributors and the public, 19% to a Community Access Program, 17% to platform development, 15% to partnership and collaboration, and 30% across developer grants, research and development, and ecosystem support. No dated vesting schedule has been published.

Does HTX have a burn mechanism?

Yes. Ecosystem releases describe a buy-back-and-burn program funded by 50% of HTX exchange quarterly revenue. The program burned 11.3 trillion HTX in Q1 2025 and a record 13.62 trillion announced in January 2026, bringing cumulative burns to roughly 99.49 trillion — about 10% of total supply. These figures are project-reported, not independently audited, so continued deflation depends on the exchange maintaining its revenue commitment.

Is HTX (HTX DAO) the same token as Huobi Token (HT)?

No. HTX (HTX DAO) and Huobi Token (HT) are distinct assets with separate histories. Legacy HT holders had a voluntary conversion path into HTX, and Bitfinex completed an HT-to-HTXDAO swap for its users in January 2025. Bitfinex later delisted HTXDAO effective November 27, 2025 — exchange support for the token changes over time.

Where can you buy and trade the HTX token?

HTX trades against USDT on major centralized exchanges including HTX, Poloniex, MEXC, KuCoin, Bybit, Gate, and Bitget; WazirX additionally runs a local HTX/INR pair. Decentralized liquidity sits on SunSwap V2, PancakeSwap v2, and Uniswap V2 on Ethereum. No derivatives markets are tracked for HTX. Per DropsTab data, most HTX quoting happens on centralized venues, while DEX books remain shallow relative to the token's large supply.

What is the HTX token contract address on each blockchain?

The HTX token is issued on three blockchains under two contract addresses. On TRON, the HTX token contract address is TUPM7K8REVzD2UdV4R5fe5M8XbnR2DdoJ6. On Ethereum and BNB Chain, the same address — 0x61ec85ab89377db65762e234c946b5c25a56e99e — hosts the ERC-20 and BEP-20 versions. Holders can verify these contracts on Tronscan, Etherscan, and BscTrace.

Is HTX DAO legit, and what are the main risks?

HTX DAO's whitepaper states the DAO is not a legal entity and HTX tokens carry no claim on its assets. Access is prohibited for U.S. persons and OFAC-sanctioned users. The main risks are structural: burn figures are self-reported by the exchange ecosystem rather than independently audited, and the absence of a dated vesting schedule for community allocations leaves dilution timing opaque.
