OKX Becomes First Global Exchange to Receive Pre-Authorization for MiCA Compliance

Centralized crypto exchange OKX revealed on Jan. 23 that it has secured pre-authorization for compliance with the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, which aims to establish a regulatory framework for cryptocurrency across the EU. OKX’s full MiCA license will allow the platform to support at least 260 trading pairs and expand its services to the continent’s 400 million users. The pre-authorization marks a key step in OKX's European expansion, part of OKX’s broader strategy to maintain compliance as it continues to grow in one of the most highly regulated markets for cryptocurrency.
