When it comes to trading crypto, choosing the right exchange can make all the difference. Hata is built for traders who want lower fees, better security, and more trading options — all while being fully regulated in Malaysia.

Here’s why Hata stands out from the rest :

Malaysia’s Only Dual-Licensed Crypto Exchange

Hata is Malaysia-born and the only crypto exchange with dual licensing :
✅ Regulated by the Labuan Financial Services Authority (LFSA)
✅ Recognized by the Securities Commission Malaysia

This means stronger security, compliance, and trust, making Hata the safest place for Malaysians to trade crypto.


50% Lower Broker Fees – Keep More of Your Profits

Why pay more when you don’t have to? Most exchanges charge 2% or more in broker fees. At Hata, we keep it simple : just 1%.

That means you :
✔️ Keep more of your profits
✔️ Trade bigger
✔️ Grow your portfolio faster


Zero Fees for Market Makers – Trade for Free

Other exchanges take a cut from every trade. We don’t.

📌 On Hata Malaysia Exchange, market makers pay zero fees — on all pairs.

What’s a Market Maker?

Market makers provide liquidity by placing limit orders instead of taking existing ones. This stabilizes prices and improves trading efficiency. In return, they get zero trading fees on Hata.

How to Become a Market Maker on Hata :

  1. Place limit orders on the order book at your chosen price.

  2. If your order isn’t instantly matched, you qualify as a maker.

  3. Use the “post-only” mode to ensure your order stays as a maker order.
