Established in 2017 (formerly known as OKEx). There is very little information available about the founder (Star Xu) and the exchange's management. It was registered in the Seychelles and is owned by Aux Cayes FinTech Co. Ltd.
The exchange ranks among the largest exchanges in both spot and derivative trading.
OKX not only offers a standard package of services, but also operates a decentralised exchange.
The company is intensively working on legalisation issues: it has announced its readiness to work on the development of MiCa standards, and has applied for licences in Hong Kong and France.
Fees and spreads are among the lowest in the industry. The exchange offers its own token, OKB.
Its site provides a lot of materials for beginners.
