Create the Account First

New users: register via https://www.htx.com/invite/en-us/1f?invite_code=gi5t3223 (code gi5t3223), then open profile → security before doing anything else.

Must-Enable Options

Authenticator-based 2FA, withdrawal confirmation by email or SMS, and device management all belong on from day one.

  • Authenticator app 2FA
  • Withdrawal whitelist
  • Login alerts
  • API key restrictions

The HTX-Specific Setting Worth Extra Attention

Anti-phishing code, withdrawal whitelist, and account-recovery support for legacy Huobi logins — set this up before you rely on it under pressure, not during an incident.

Preferences

Set your display currency, theme, and language. Keep security emails on even if you disable marketing emails.

API Keys

Only create API keys if you actually run a bot or use HTX Prime. Restrict IPs and disable withdrawal permission on the key.

Review Monthly

Check the device list and API key list on HTX once a month — remove anything you no longer recognize.

What Makes HTX Different Day to Day

HTX's bigger differentiator is Prime listings and a long operating history — most people never look past the signup flow to notice it.

Layer that on top of the HT fee discount, and the cost picture on HTX looks different from a generic exchange checklist.

a VIP tier ladder carried over from years of operating history in Asia round out the product, but none of it replaces reading the live fee schedule before you size a trade.

  • Watch for: registering a brand-new HTX account instead of recovering an old Huobi-era login, and losing referral credit by signing up twice
  • Also watch for: joining an HTX Prime sale without checking the vesting or unlock schedule for the new token
  • Security basics still apply: 2FA, anti-phishing code, withdrawal whitelist, and account-recovery support for legacy Huobi logins
