New Crypto Exchanges: Testnet and Pre-Launch Trading Platforms

Browse new crypto exchanges in one place, including decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and perpetual trading platforms that are on testnet or newly launched. Each listing shows the blockchain, the type of exchange, whether an airdrop or points program has been announced, and links to the official website. Many of these exchanges run campaigns for early users, which you can also find in our Airdrop Hub. A listing is not an endorsement, so always check an exchange yourself before you use it.

Types of New Crypto Exchanges

The new crypto exchanges on this page fall into a few groups. Knowing the difference helps you understand what each platform does and what risks come with it.

  • DEX (decentralized exchange): you trade straight from your own wallet. The platform does not hold your funds, but you still need to read every wallet approval.
  • Perp DEX: a platform for perpetual futures, which let you trade price moves with leverage. Leverage can wipe out a position quickly, so these carry higher risk.
  • Order-book exchange: buyers and sellers place orders at set prices, like on a traditional exchange. Some new platforms use this model on a new blockchain.
  • Testnet platforms: a test version where tokens have no real value. Teams use it to find bugs, and some reward early testers, though a reward is never guaranteed.

Every listing on this page links to the official website, so you can read what the project says in its own words. We update listings when the team shares new details.

How to Check a New Exchange Before You Use It

New exchanges can be risky, and some are scams. Before you connect a wallet or deposit funds, check these points:

  • Open the exchange only through the official website link on its listing.
  • Never share your seed phrase or private key. No real exchange asks for it.
  • Use a separate wallet, and start with a very small amount or test tokens only.
  • Check who is behind the project, whether the code has been audited, and what the team says on its official social accounts.
  • Treat any exchange that promises guaranteed returns or asks you to send crypto first as a scam.
  • Do your own research. Listings are information, not financial advice.

New Crypto Exchanges FAQ

What is a new crypto exchange?

A new crypto exchange is a trading platform that has recently launched or is still in testing. It can be a decentralized exchange (DEX), where you trade from your own wallet, or a platform for perpetual futures trading.

What is a testnet exchange?

A testnet exchange is a test version of a trading platform. You trade with test tokens that have no real value, which lets the team find problems before the full launch.

Do new exchanges give airdrops?

Some say that early users may be rewarded, but most have not confirmed a token or a reward. Each listing shows what the team has said. A reward is never guaranteed.

Is it safe to use a new exchange?

It carries more risk than an established platform. Use only the official link, keep amounts small, and never share your seed phrase. Test tokens carry no financial risk, but wallet approvals still do.

Can I list my exchange on CryptoLaunchHub?
