MEXC vs Bitget
Two tier-two venues competing on price and listings.
MEXC
The cheapest fees and the longest listing tail, with the trade-offs that implies.
Bitget
The copy-trading specialist with a large protection fund.
If you are here, you are looking for a second account: somewhere to catch early listings or run cheap maker flow. Neither of these should be your primary custody venue.

Are zero-fee exchanges actually free?
No. Promotional maker rates are real, but the cost moves into the spread and into slippage on thin books. On anything outside the majors, expect the realised cost to exceed the headline fee.
