In short: the difference
First in the pair, BigONE, is an exchange with services around the trading. On the market since 2017, jurisdiction: Seychelles, its own ONE token.
Second in the pair, HIBT, is a venue with bots and a Web3 side. .
What BigONE gives you
Compared with an ecosystem, BigONE leans on its own strengths: A veteran of this comparison: the exchange opened in 2017, put together by a team that came out of Yunbi. The list holds some nine hundred spot pairs and a hundred perpetual contracts, each with an open funding rate, accrual interval and mark price. Margin, leveraged tokens and staking all work here, and the ONE token cuts the fee. The venue publishes everything, down to the size at the best quote.
Strong sides: ~900 pairs and 100 contracts, best quotes with sizes, an open network directory with withdrawal fees, the ONE token for discounts.
What HIBT gives you
The rival’s service list is wide, yet HIBT wins on other things: A spot venue with nearly five hundred USDT pairs and meaningful turnover on the major coins. The book is served one pair per request, so we keep the top hundred and fifty by turnover under watch and walk them with a dedicated collector — that is where nearly all the volume sits. Best quotes arrive with their size, so the execution ceiling is computable here too.
Strong sides: sizes at the best quote are open, nearly 500 USDT pairs, a relaxed request pace with no hard limits.
What decides it
- Native token. ONE on BigONE cuts fees and opens launches; HIBT has no such lever.
- Strengths side by side. BigONE: ~900 pairs and 100 contracts, best quotes with sizes, an open network directory with withdrawal fees, the ONE token for discounts; HIBT: sizes at the best quote are open, nearly 500 USDT pairs, a relaxed request pace with no hard limits.
- Which job. BigONE is as an additional venue in spot routes and funding, while HIBT is as an extra side in spot and triangular routes.
- Worth remembering. BigONE: the top of the book is thin: on major coins the best price often holds only a hundred dollars or two. HIBT: the book is served one pair per request, so only the top of the turnover list enters the scanners.
Which one fits you
BigONE — as an additional venue in spot routes and funding.
HIBT — as an extra side in spot and triangular routes.
What people ask most
BigONE: How many pairs and contracts does BigONE have? By our measurements around nine hundred spot pairs and a hundred perpetual contracts. The figures are live and refresh with the data.
BigONE: Does BigONE take part in your arbitrage sections? Yes, all of them. The exchange serves best quotes together with their sizes, so we can compute both the spread and the ceiling it fills at — which matters especially on a venue like this.
BigONE: Why are spreads on BigONE often large? Because the top of the book is thin: the size at the best price is often a hundred dollars or two. The percentage on screen is real, but it fills only for that much. Use the «depth» button before trading.
HIBT: How many pairs does HIBT have? By our measurements nearly five hundred spot pairs against USDT. The scanners use the top hundred and fifty by turnover — the ones where a spread can actually fill.
HIBT: Why do HIBT routes show a question mark instead of a transfer status? The exchange does not openly publish networks, fees and deposit/withdrawal statuses. We will not present a guess as a fact.
HIBT: Why is HIBT missing from funding? The venue does have futures, but we found no open programmatic access to the funding rate, and without it the section is pointless.
Both at once
Most people end up keeping both: one for daily trades, the other for what the first one lacks. It makes sense to split the jobs: spot and earn on one, bots and launches on the other. Balances are pre-funded, so no transfer is needed at the moment of a trade.
