🏦 About CoinEx – Who’s Behind the Exchange?
Before we dive into the registration steps, let’s take a moment to understand what makes CoinEx one of the most trusted global cryptocurrency exchanges.
CoinEx was founded in December 2017 by Haipo Yang, a young entrepreneur and early Bitcoin investor who first encountered Bitcoin in 2011 and joined the crypto community in 2013.[reference:0] Prior to founding CoinEx, Yang built the ViaBTC mining pool from scratch – he wrote the entire codebase and launched it in just two months.[reference:1]
The exchange is backed by ViaBTC, one of the world’s leading mining pools, which provides CoinEx with mature blockchain infrastructure and strong technical capabilities.[reference:2][reference:3] With over 10 million users across 200+ countries and regions, CoinEx has grown into a tier-1, award-winning exchange recognized for its reliability, accessibility, and user-first philosophy.[reference:4][reference:5]
