How to Earn Tether With BitMEX EARN

If you purchase USDT via Banxa on BitMEX and deposit it into EARN between 1 and 7 December, you’ll get a full rebate of Banxa fees paid on the subscribed USDT.*

How is the estimated APR calculated?

Your estimated interest rate is calculated by taking the difference between your redemption amount and input amount, and annualised by using the time difference between the maturity and start date. Please note that the APR indicated is only an estimate, and the redemption amount you will receive at maturity is determined and fixed at trade confirmation. 

What happens after the BitMEX EARN maturity date?

The redemption amount will be transferred to your BitMEX wallet shortly after the maturity date and time. You don’t have to do anything at all – simply sit back and earn!

Is BitMEX EARN safe?

Yes, BitMEX EARN is the only product of its type in the market in that it’s 100% backed by the BitMEX Insurance Fund – one of the largest funds in the industry.
