UPDATE 15 October 2025: 50x.com officially announced permanent cessation of operations and entered liquidation. A final withdrawal deadline of October 15, 2025 was set, after which the system was to be completely disabled. The main domain still serves a static page (HTTP 200) but the exchange is confirmed dead.

Accordingly, we have marked this exchange as "dead" and moved it to our Exchange Graveyard.

50x.com (previously STeX) is a cryptocurrency exchange registered in the Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, a group of islands in the Caribbean Sea. It has been active since 2018.

The 50x.com-trading platform is available in the English, Russian and Korean language.

50x.com claims to be the “1^st aggregator of crypto liquidity”, and states that you can “trade over 10,000 coin[s] cross rates in one place”. We have not been able to verify any of these statements, but we do know that they are at least not the only aggregator of crypto liquidity.

With liquidity aggregation, we mean that the exchange offers the opportunity for its traders to benefit from the order books also from other cryptocurrency exchanges. This creates an unusually deep order book and expands the range of digital assets possible to trade at the exchange and ensure fair pricing of the trades.

Different exchanges have different trading views. And there is no “this overview is the best”-view. You should yourself determine which trading view that suits you the best. What the views normally have in common is that they all show the order book or at least part of the order book, a price chart of the chosen cryptocurrency and order history. They normally also have buy and sell-boxes. Before you choose an exchange, try to have a look at the trading view so that you can ascertain that it feels right to you. The below is a picture of the trading view at 50x.com:

To our knowledge, US-investors are permitted to trade at this exchange. However, any US-investors interested in trading here should form their own opinion on any issues arising from their citizenship or residency.

This exchange charges flat fees of 0.20%, meaning that it doesn’t matter whether you are a taker or a maker. You get charged 0.20% of the order value anyways.

0.20% is slightly below the global industry average, which is arguably around 0.25%.

50x-com charges a withdrawal fee amounting to 0.0005 BTC when you withdraw BTC. This is substantially below the global industry average BTC-withdrawal fee, being 0.00053 BTC according to this empirical study.

All in all, both the trading fees and withdrawal fees at 50x.com are in line with or even below the industry averages, which is great.

50x.com (previously STeX) does not accept any deposits of fiat currency. This means that new cryptocurrency investors (i.e., investors without any previous holdings of cryptocurrencies) can’t trade here. In order to purchase your first cryptocurrencies, you need a so called entry-level exchange, which is an exchange accepting deposits of fiat currency. Find one by using our Exchange Finder!
