  BitMEX may be buying BTC as part of its risk management strategy. Holding BTC allows BitMEX to hedge against potential losses in other cryptocurrencies or traditional assets. It provides a diversification opportunity and helps mitigate the impact of market volatility.

  While I cannot speak on behalf of BitMEX, it's common for exchanges like BYDFi to buy BTC to meet customer demand. BTC is the most widely recognized and traded cryptocurrency, and exchanges need to have sufficient BTC reserves to facilitate trading and provide liquidity to their users.
