OKX integrates BitGo for secure U.S. institutional trading

OKX now lets U.S. institutions trade via BitGo’s custody, boosting security and efficiency by removing the need to pre-fund exchange accounts.

OKX has integrated BitGo's off-exchange settlement platform for institutional clients in the United States. This allows institutions to trade on OKX while keeping their assets securely held in BitGo's regulated cold custody, eliminating the need to pre-fund exchange accounts before trading. The integration enhances capital efficiency, reduces counterparty risk, and streamlines the trading process. By consolidating custody, execution, and settlement into a single workflow, it supports compliance with regulatory standards and addresses the increasing demand for secure institutional crypto trading infrastructure. This move is part of OKX's broader U.S. expansion strategy, reflecting industry trends toward more secure and flexible custody solutions and responding to growing institutional interest in efficient, regulated trading environments.
