Who We Are
At OKX, we believe that the future will be reshaped by crypto, ultimately contributing to every individual's freedom. OKX began as a crypto exchange giving millions of people access to crypto trading, and over time becoming among the largest platforms in the world. In recent years, we have developed one of the most connected Web3 wallets used by millions to access decentralized crypto applications (dApps). OKX is a trusted brand by hundreds of large institutions, seeking access to crypto markets on a reliable platform that seamlessly connects with global banking and payments. In 2024, OKX expanded into new markets including Australia, Brazil, UAE, Netherlands, Singapore and Turkey. In January 2025, we became the first global exchange to receive a MiCA licence in Malta.
We are deeply committed to shaping a fairer, more transparent and accessible society through blockchain technology. This is why we publish proof of reserves monthly, and continue to ship new innovative security features. Across our multiple offices globally, we are united by our core principles: We Before Me, Do the Right Thing, and Get Things Done. These shared values drive our culture, shape our processes, and foster a friendly, rewarding, and diverse environment for every OK-er.
