Toobit, the global cryptocurrency and derivatives exchange, has been named “Global Exchange of the Year” by the FinanceFeeds Awards 2026, recognizing its rapid growth, product innovation, and commitment to delivering a secure and intelligent trading experience for millions of users worldwide.
The award comes as Toobit continues to strengthen its position as one of the industry’s fastest-growing exchanges. Today, the platform serves more than 4 million active traders across global markets and processes over $30 billion in daily trading volume, offering a comprehensive ecosystem that combines cryptocurrency trading with traditional financial market exposure.
Designed for traders seeking both flexibility and advanced technology, Toobit provides access to spot and derivatives markets alongside more than 200 TradFi trading pairs, including one of the industry’s largest selections of tokenized Stock Futures. The platform also offers leverage of up to 500x on selected products, allowing experienced traders to implement sophisticated trading strategies across both digital assets and traditional financial instruments.
What the Award Represents
The Global Exchange of the Year award is really about breadth. Crypto exchanges are no longer just places to buy and sell tokens. The strongest global platforms now sit at the meeting point of crypto, derivatives, tokenized stocks, event contracts, prediction markets, and automated trading. Winning in this category means serving traders across different regions, products, and experience levels without turning the platform into a confusing mess.
It also reflects how quickly the exchange business has changed. A few years ago, listing more coins and offering higher leverage could set a platform apart. Today, traders expect much more: deep markets, fast execution, reliable copy trading, proof of reserves, strong custody, and tools that can handle both digital assets and traditional markets. Global exchanges are being judged on how well all of those parts work together, especially when markets are volatile and trading activity spikes.
At its core, Global Exchange of the Year recognises an exchange that can operate at scale while still feeling usable. It points to the platforms broad enough to cover global markets, technical enough for experienced traders, and simple enough that users can move between products without getting lost.
Building an AI-First Trading Experience
Artificial intelligence has become a defining pillar of Toobit’s product strategy. The exchange integrates AI throughout the trading experience, providing users with tools that help simplify research, identify opportunities, and improve decision-making in fast-moving markets.
Among its flagship innovations is Synapse, an AI-powered market analysis engine that delivers automated trading insights and market intelligence. The platform also introduced the AI Agent Trade Kit, an open-source framework designed to connect AI-driven conversations directly with live market execution, allowing developers and traders to build more intelligent automated workflows.
“Being recognized as Global Exchange of the Year is a tremendous honor and reflects the confidence that millions of users have placed in our platform,” said Kelly, Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer at Toobit. “Our vision has always been to build an exchange that combines innovation, security, and accessibility while preparing traders for the future of digital finance. As AI, blockchain, and traditional markets continue to converge, we remain committed to delivering the technology and infrastructure that our global community needs to succeed.”
“Toobit distinguished itself through the range of markets it brings together and the technology supporting them. Its combination of derivatives, tokenized Stock Futures, AI-led analysis, copy trading, and newer formats such as Event Contracts shows a clear understanding of where trading platforms are heading. More importantly, those capabilities are presented within an infrastructure designed to support substantial global activity rather than functioning as disconnected additions,” added FinanceFeeds EIC Nikolai Isayev.
Alongside its AI capabilities, Toobit continues to expand its product ecosystem through features including zero-slippage copy trading, Event Contracts, and Prediction Market, giving users multiple ways to participate in both crypto-native and traditional financial opportunities from a single platform.
Toobit has also invested heavily in building a secure trading environment. The exchange holds an ISO/IEC 27001 certification covering its information security management systems. It also uses a proprietary security framework known as Bee-Safe, which includes cold-wallet storage, multi-signature approvals, monitoring systems, encryption, and transaction-risk controls. Toobit publishes Proof of Reserves data showing that selected customer assets are backed at more than 100%.
Toobit operates through entities registered in jurisdictions including the Cayman Islands and Poland. It also holds a US money services business registration with FinCEN.
These safeguards complement the platform’s broader philosophy of maintaining a fair and accessible marketplace where traders can operate with confidence, regardless of market conditions.
