Introduction#
OKX (formerly known as OKEX) was founded in 2017 and is a leading global Bitcoin trading platform, founded by Xu Mingxing (former CTO of Dou Ding Network).
Similar to Binance, OKX initially set its headquarters in Beijing, China. With the adjustment of domestic regulatory policies on cryptocurrencies, OKX moved its operational headquarters overseas, and its current registered headquarters is located in the Republic of Seychelles.
After the strengthening of virtual currency regulations in mainland China in 2021, several trading platforms gradually withdrew Chinese users. OKX issued an announcement regarding regulatory policies in mainland China, declaring the withdrawal of its offices in mainland China, but the platform services remain open to Chinese users.
As of now, OKX still supports Chinese users in completing registration and trading operations.
This article provides the latest version of the OKX account registration and usage guide for investors in need.
