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 cryptocurrency regulatory policies, OKX moved its operational headquarters overseas, and is now registered in the Republic of Seychelles.
After China strengthened its regulation of virtual currencies in 2021, several trading platforms gradually withdrew their Chinese users. OKX issued an announcement regarding regulatory policies in mainland China, stating that it would withdraw its offices in mainland China, but the platform services would 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.
