OKX Goes Live In The US After Setting Up New Headquarters in San Jose, California

The world’s sixth-largest crypto exchange by daily trading volume is now accessible to the American market.

In a statement, OKX says that it is accelerating its expansion in the US with the official launch of its centralized exchange and web3 wallet in the country.

The move enables existing OKcoin customers to migrate to the OKX platform, though new user registration won’t be available until later this year.

The Seychelles-based firm says the measured rollout will help ensure a secure onboarding process for customers.

OKX has also set up its headquarters in San Jose, California, and appointed former Barclays Investment Bank director Roshan Robert as the new US CEO as part of its US strategy.

Says Robert,

“This expansion in the United States is not only the expansion of the business map, but also a solemn commitment to ‘responsible growth’. In the face of the evolving regulatory environment, we are working closely with regulators and policymakers to ensure sound operation on a transparent and compliant basis.”

The exchange says it positions itself at the heart of Silicon Valley’s innovation system by setting up the new California headquarters.

“This strategic move strengthens OKX’s regional operations, enabling it to recruit top-tier talent, foster cutting-edge product development, and expand its presence in the world’s largest financial market.”
