Huobi Monthly Recap – September 2018

It has been a busy month at Huobi! As you can see, September was a month packed full of events, and big announcements from Huobi Group. For October and the rest of the calendar year, we have a lot more planned, so stay tuned!

Here are the key highlights for the month of September 2018:

HADAX 2.0 Upgraded to Huobi NEXT

We are pleased to announce the re-naming of HADAX 2.0 to Huobi NEXT!

Adhering to the concept of providing innovative digital assets with a development platform and opportunities to showcase projects, HADAX has constantly upgraded the voting mechanism of community voting ever since it was launched. With HADAX 2.0, Huobi has proved to a certain extent the feasibility to select quality projects through community voting. Therefore, Huobi Group has decided to upgrade HADAX to Huobi NEXT and combine it with Huobi Global from a long-term strategic perspective.
