OKX Launches in the US Market: A New Era for Crypto and Web3 Innovation

Insights from Roshan Robert, CEO of OKX US

Over the past decade, I've had the privilege of leading initiatives that deepened my understanding of blockchain's transformative potential. Witnessing the industry's evolution from its infancy to today's pivotal moment—where crypto intersects with traditional finance—I'm thrilled to join OKX as CEO of its US operations. My mission is to expand OKX's presence in the US, providing secure, transparent, and compliant access to digital assets.

OKX Goes Live in the US: Making Crypto More Accessible

Today marks a milestone: OKX's centralized exchange and Web3 wallet officially launch in the US, with our regional headquarters now established in San Jose, California.
