As of the most recent HTX sync, the cheapest BUY price is ¥6.78 and the highest SELL price is ¥6.79 across 10 active payment methods. The full per-payment-method breakdown is in the table above.
What payment methods does HTX support for CNY?+

Is USDT trading legal in mainland China?+
No. The People's Bank of China and 9 other ministries jointly banned all crypto trading and mining for mainland residents in September 2021. The ban includes services provided by overseas exchanges to mainland users. Hong Kong is separate and operates under its own crypto regulatory framework.
Can mainland Chinese residents trade USDT through P2P?+
It happens despite the ban, but bank AML systems aggressively monitor and freeze accounts flagged for crypto transfers. Underground P2P operates via face-to-face cash trades or via overseas exchange accounts (Binance/OKX still serve mainland users informally). Risk-reward is meaningfully worse than for users in friendlier jurisdictions.
Is HTX the same as Huobi?+
Yes. HTX rebranded from Huobi in late 2023 after the Justin Sun-led ownership transition. The platform, P2P market, and merchant pool carried over; only the brand changed. Domain redirects from huobi.com to htx.com remain active.
Is HTX P2P safe to use?+
HTX uses standard escrow — crypto is locked in HTX custody until the seller confirms fiat receipt. Counterparty risk is on the off-platform payment rail. Always check merchant completion rate (≥95%) and order count (≥1000) before large trades, regardless of platform.
How does OpenRate get this HTX CNY data?+
For HTX we crawl their public P2P API every 60 seconds and write merchant-level ad data to our Postgres. The aggregate per-payment-method numbers above are reconciled against p2p.army's TOP1 snapshot every 30 minutes.
