OKX has introduced OKX Shield, a discretionary goodwill programme offering eligible users tiered reimbursement in cases of unauthorized third-party account takeovers, such as incidents involving phishing or malware. The programme is not insurance or a compensation scheme and is available to KYC-verified users who maintain specified security measures; reimbursement limits range from up to USD 100,000 for regular users to USD 500,000 for VIP account holders. Activation requires users to complete six defined security steps within the OKX app or website, and coverage remains active only as long as these conditions are continuously met. The programme limits each user to a single reimbursement claim across all OKX entities and excludes cases involving user-authorized transactions or certain types of negligence. OKX Shield is positioned as a complement to the broker’s Proof of Reserves transparency initiative.
