OKX加密貨幣交易所正式在美國啟動運營

OKX是塞舌爾總部的加密貨幣交易所，已正式啟動了在美國的業務。

OKX, the Seychelles-based cryptocurrency exchange, has officially launched its operations in the United States. The rollout includes the centralized trading platform and the OKX Wallet, now accessible to U.S. users, as part of the company’s broader expansion plans, which saw it setting up a regional hub in San Jose, California.

OKX是位於塞舌爾的加密貨幣交易所，已正式在美國啟動了其業務。推廣包括集中式交易平台和OKX錢包，現在是美國用戶可以訪問的，這是該公司更廣泛的擴展計劃的一部分，該計劃使其在加利福尼亞州聖何塞建立了區域樞紐。

This move comes just two months after OKX paid over $500 million to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to settle a case where authorities said the company had been operating in the country without a proper license. The DOJ claimed that OKX had allowed Americans to trade on the platform despite internal rules stating otherwise.

此舉是在OKX向美國司法部（DOJ）支付超過5億美元以解決當局表示該公司在該國沒有適當許可的情況下經營的案件的兩個月。司法部聲稱，儘管內部規則說其他規則，但OKX允許美國人在平台上進行交易。

In February, Aux Cayes FinTech Co., Ltd., an affiliate of OKX, settled with the DOJ after a lengthy investigation. The case focused on services provided to U.S. users without a money transmission license. As part of the settlement, the company paid a total of about $505 million, which included $84 million in civil penalties and around $421 million in revenue from U.S. users that had to be forfeited.

2月，OKX的分支機構Aux Cayes Fintech Co.，Ltd。經過長時間的調查，與司法部定居。該案件的重點是在沒有貨幣傳輸許可證的情況下提供給美國用戶的服務。作為解決方案的一部分，該公司總共支付了約5.05億美元，其中包括8400萬美元的民事處罰和約4.21億美元的收入，這些收入必須被沒收。

The DOJ stated that OKX had policies designed to prevent U.S. residents from joining the platform. However, some employees allegedly assisted users in circumventing these restrictions by advising them to provide false information.

司法部表示，OKX的政策旨在防止美國居民加入平台。但是，據稱一些員工通過建議他們提供虛假信息來協助用戶規避這些限制。

“The company violated U.S. laws despite its own internal controls,” said a DOJ spokesperson. “This settlement will deter other companies from similar violations and help ensure that those who wish to provide financial services in the United States do so in compliance with the law.”

司法部發言人說：“儘管該公司自己的內部控制權違反了美國法律。” “這項和解將阻止其他公司的類似違規行為，並幫助確保那些希望在美國提供金融服務的人遵守法律。”

OKX noted that the accounts linked to the settlement have been removed from the platform and that user funds were not affected during the investigation.

OKX指出，鏈接到和解的帳戶已從平台中刪除，並且在調查過程中沒有影響用戶資金。

Shift From OKCoin to OKX Platform

從OKCoin轉移到OKX平台

OKCoin users in the U.S. will be switched to the main OKX platform as part of the rollout. OKCoin is a U.S.-accessible exchange that is linked to OKX. The company said the migration will provide users with better trading conditions, such as increased liquidity and lower fees.

作為推出的一部分，美國的OKCoin用戶將切換到主要OKX平台。 OKCoin是一個可訪問的交易所，鏈接到OKX。該公司表示，遷移將為用戶提供更好的交易條件，例如增加流動性和較低的費用。

This change will occur in a phased manner, with OKX introducing services gradually before going fully live nationwide later in 2025. Customers will be notified as their accounts are transitioned.

這種更改將以分階段的方式進行，OKX逐漸引入服務，然後在2025年晚些時候全國范圍內完全播放。隨著其帳戶的過渡，將通知客戶。

Leading the charge as CEO for OKX’s U.S. operations is Roshan Robert, who brings a wealth of experience from his previous role as the CEO of CLST, a leading digital asset firm. Robert's background also includes positions at major financial institutions like Morgan Stanley and Barclays, where he held leadership roles in capital markets and derivatives.

Roshan Robert是OKX美國運營首席執行官的指控，他從前擔任領先的數字資產公司CLST的首席執行官中帶來了豐富的經驗。羅伯特的背景還包括摩根士丹利和巴克萊等主要金融機構的職位，他在資本市場和衍生品中擔任領導職務。

Moreover, Robert was a founding member of Hidden Road, a digital asset firm that was recently acquired by Ripple (XRP). His deep understanding of both the traditional finance sector and the emerging cryptocurrency market makes him uniquely qualified to spearhead OKX's expansion in the U.S.

此外，羅伯特（Robert）是《隱藏道路》（Hidden Road）的創始成員，這是一家數字資產公司，最近被Ripple（XRP）收購。他對傳統金融部門和新興的加密貨幣市場的深刻理解使他具有獨特的資格，可以使OKX在美國擴張

Focus On Compliance And U.S. Strategy

專注於合規和美國戰略

OKX has devised a comprehensive compliance plan as part of its entry into the U.S. market. The company's framework includes customer identity verification procedures, sophisticated tools to detect and prevent money laundering, geographic access controls to ensure compliance with local regulations, and advanced market monitoring systems to mitigate any potential market abuse.

OKX已製定了一項全面的合規計劃，作為其進入美國市場的一部分。該公司的框架包括客戶身份驗證程序，用於檢測和防止洗錢的複雜工具，地理訪問控制以確保遵守當地法規以及高級市場監控系統，以減輕任何潛在的市場濫用。

In a statement, Robert highlighted OKX's commitment to responsible expansion.

羅伯特在一份聲明中強調了OKX對負責任擴張的承諾。

"We are focused on building responsibly in the U.S. and cooperating fully with regulators to meet all requirements. We are working to provide a trusted and transparent platform for digital asset traders in this important market."

“我們專注於在美國負責任地建設，並與監管機構完全合作以滿足所有要求。我們正在努力為這個重要市場中的數字資產交易者提供一個可信賴的透明平台。”

Crypto Industry Sees Renewed Interest In U.S.

加密行業看到對我們的興趣重新興趣

The move by OKX comes as crypto firms are showing renewed interest in the U.S. market. Changes in the political landscape, such as the current administration's approach to digital assets, have led to more companies restarting operations in the country.

OKX的舉動是因為加密公司對美國市場表現出了新的興趣。政治格局的變化，例如現任政府的數字資產方法，導致越來越多的公司重新啟動該國的運營。

Recently, CoinList announced its return after several years, and other major exchanges, including Binance, are also reported to be considering a U.S. comeback. OKX's expansion places it among a growing list of firms aiming to gain a foothold as regulatory conditions continue to evolve.

最近，COINLIST宣布幾年後宣布其返回，據報導，其他主要交易所（包括二元）也正在考慮美國復出。 OKX的擴張將其列入越來越多的公司列入，旨在隨著監管條件的不斷發展而贏得立足點。
