OKX has officially launched fully regulated platforms in Germany and Poland, strengthening its presence in Europe and marking a significant milestone in its regional expansion strategy.
This move reflects the company’s broader ambition to solidify its role as a trusted, compliant crypto exchange across the European Union.
Through these newly launched exchanges, users in both countries now gain access to over 270 cryptocurrencies, including more than 60 crypto-Euro trading pairs. With competitive fees and deep liquidity, the platforms offer full regulatory compliance, supporting seamless Euro deposits and withdrawals to ensure easy access to digital assets.
To lead its expansion efforts, OKX has appointed Moritz Putzhammer as General Manager for Central Europe and the Nordics and Gabriel Manduca as General Manager for Eastern Europe. These appointments are expected to enhance OKX’s operational capabilities, regulatory alignment, and local engagement, as both leaders bring extensive experience across centralized and decentralized finance sectors.
“Germany and Poland are strategic growth markets for us,”
said Erald Ghoos, CEO of OKX Europe.
“By launching regulated platforms tailored to local needs, we’re delivering enhanced security, advanced tools, and broader access while reinforcing our commitment to compliance.”
Building on this momentum, the new platforms cater to both retail and institutional customers. Services include spot trading, staking, automated trading bots, and earn products. OKX has also localized the entire user experience from its app and website to customer support, providing users with intuitive tools and simplified buy/sell features designed for ease of use.
To commemorate the launch, OKX held exclusive events in Berlin and Warsaw, where it debuted Mild Mild West, a short film that challenges the outdated “wild west” image of crypto and highlights the industry’s growing regulatory maturity.
Adding to its growing list of initiatives, OKX also announced the launch of a new wrapped Bitcoin asset, xBTC, along with new yield-generating products linked to the token. This development comes as Bitcoin hits a new all-time high, surpassing $111,000.
