A New Chapter: Building the Next Generation of Financial Infrastructure Our partnership with Intercontinental Exchange marks an important moment for OKX and for the broader evolution of digital asset markets. ICE has built and operated some of the most important financial infrastructure in the world, including the New York Stock Exchange and global derivatives and clearing platforms. Their decision to invest in OKX, and join our board, reflects a shared belief that digital asset technology will play an enduring role in the future of financial markets. For OKX, this partnership also represents a new chapter in how we approach the United States. In many ways, we view our presence in the U.S. as a blank sheet of paper — an opportunity to build thoughtfully, engage constructively with regulators and institutions, and contribute to the development of market infrastructure that meets the standards of the world’s most sophisticated capital markets. Financial markets are entering a period of structural transformation. Blockchain technology allows assets to move and settle globally with unprecedented efficiency. Artificial intelligence is reshaping how markets analyze information and manage risk. At the same time, expectations around safety, transparency, and investor protection remain as important as ever. The next generation of financial infrastructure must bring these elements together. One area where we see tremendous potential is the development of tokenized securities and digital representations of traditional assets. In the future, issuers may be able to bring securities directly to global investors through modern digital infrastructure, while still benefiting from the governance, market structure, and regulatory frameworks that have long defined traditional exchanges. Working alongside ICE and the broader New York Stock Exchange ecosystem gives us a unique opportunity to explore how these models can evolve responsibly. Our focus is not simply on new technology, but on building durable infrastructure for the global financial system. This includes improving market structure, strengthening risk management and clearing frameworks, expanding institutional access to digital assets, and creating platforms that protect consumers while enabling innovation. OKX today serves more than 120 million people globally and operates under licensing frameworks in major financial jurisdictions. Over the past decade, we have built high-performance trading systems, onchain technologies, payment systems and security frameworks capable of supporting large-scale global markets. As digital assets continue to mature, we believe collaboration between technology innovators and established financial institutions will be essential. Our partnership with ICE reflects this principle. Together we will explore how traditional exchange infrastructure and digital asset technology can complement each other to build stronger, more efficient markets. This investment is not an endpoint — it is the beginning of a deeper collaboration. Our goal is to help shape the next chapter of financial markets, where digital and traditional infrastructure work together to expand access, strengthen trust, and support innovation across the global economy. okx.com/en-us/learn/ok…

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink told the World Economic Forum he thinks the movement toward tokenization and digitization is necessary. We need to move very rapidly to doing that. With one common blockchain, we can reduce corruption. The "one common blockchain" Larry Fink referenced could plausibly be Ethereum, based on BlackRock's ongoing initiatives and public statements emphasizing Ethereum's role in asset tokenization. BlackRock has repeatedly positioned it as a key platform for their tokenization efforts, including launching products like the BUIDL tokenized money market fund directly on Ethereum, which has grown to over $2 billion in total value locked. There's no second best!
After reviewing the Senate Banking draft text over the last 48hrs, Coinbase unfortunately can’t support the bill as written. There are too many issues, including: - A defacto ban on tokenized equities - DeFi prohibitions, giving the government unlimited access to your financial records and removing your right to privacy - Erosion of the CFTC’s authority, stifling innovation and making it subservient to the SEC - Draft amendments that would kill rewards on stablecoins, allowing banks to ban their competition We appreciate all the hard work by members of the Senate to reach a bi-partisan outcome, but this version would be materially worse than the current status quo. We’d rather have no bill than a bad bill. Hopefully we can all get to a better draft. We'll keep fighting for all Americans and for economic freedom. Crypto needs to be treated on a level playing field with the rest of financial services so we can build this industry in a safe and trusted way in America.
World Mobile is on a mission to close the global connectivity gap. Achieving that requires a truly global footprint and strong local partners. We’re partnering with @OOKCLabs, whose presence across the Middle East and China brings valuable community reach as we continue scaling real-world connectivity through Web3 and DePIN. This collaboration reflects a shared long-term focus on community-led growth and expanding access across key markets worldwide. More to come.
