I recently reviewed an industry report on cryptocurrency professionals in 2025. Combining it with real-world observations, I want to share some insights and experiences with friends who are interested in entering the exchange industry.



If we only consider salary and career development prospects, a leading exchange is indeed the top choice for many. However, honestly, competition in some departments has become quite fierce. While a well-known exchange offers good pay, it enforces a strict elimination system at the bottom, and the employee count has remained below 2000 for a long time. Looking at Bybit, the work pressure is relatively moderate, but the number of open positions has never been very large, and the overall size is around 2000 employees.

Regarding international platforms, Coinbase, Crypto.com, Kraken, and similar foreign companies tend to have an atmosphere closer to Western internet companies, and the cost-performance ratio for career development is quite high. However, these companies all have relatively strict English language requirements.

Among the Mexc group of exchanges, aside from Mexc itself, the compensation for other projects is generally average, with high staff turnover. Staying for more than half a year is considered a sign of being a "long-term employee." Interestingly, despite high turnover, Matcha retains some stable team members because it offers relatively better pay.

Bitget adopts a rotating work schedule (big week and small week), but its salary levels are still competitive, and the overall work pace is quite fast. As for Gate, there's a joke in the industry—its cost-performance ratio really needs to be carefully considered.

BingX is one of the few companies that can maintain reasonable pay without excessive competition, and the workplace atmosphere is relatively relaxed. Additionally, VOOX, XT, Bitunix, and FameEX are smaller in scale, so there is limited sample information.

Overall, choosing which exchange to join depends on personal priorities regarding salary, career development, work intensity, and company culture. There is no absolute "best answer."

Now I finally understand the "supply and demand curve" of exchanges. From an ROI perspective, BingX, which is both non-competitive and pays users, is indeed a rare species. The last-place elimination system turns the workplace into an eternal bear market, making everyone feel insecure... According to economic logic, this is a typical case of "inefficient resource allocation." Bybit's gentle atmosphere sounds like the last bastion of Web3 decentralization spirit in the workplace, but the scarcity of positions is indeed a floor price issue. The English requirements for foreign companies are essentially for natural screening; thresholds are like moats, and this approach is worth learning. Mexc's half-year tenure still counts as "long-term employee"? This liquidity perfectly exemplifies the bear market philosophy... personnel fluctuate just like coin prices. Gate is often joked about in the industry; sometimes, cost-effectiveness can determine life ROI even more than salary.
