OKX launches regulated crypto exchanges in Germany and Poland
OKX enters EU with regulated German, Polish exchanges
Crypto exchange OKX has formally entered the European Union’s regulatory fold with the launch of two fully compliant centralized exchanges in Germany and Poland.
The move underscores OKX’s strategic expansion into regulated markets as it continues to bolster its global footprint.
Localized platforms with broad offerings
The newly launched exchanges are tailored to serve both retail and institutional users. OKX now provides customers in Germany and Poland access to more than 270 cryptocurrencies and over 60 crypto-to-euro trading pairs, supported by deep liquidity and competitive fee structures.

In addition to spot trading, the platforms also offer staking services and euro-based deposits and withdrawals, positioning them as full-service exchanges for local and regional users. OKX emphasized that the new platforms include localized customer support and seamless fiat integration, both of which are designed to align with European regulatory expectations and user experience standards.
Strategic regulatory compliance in the EU
OKX’s expansion into Germany and Poland follows a broader industry trend of digital asset exchanges seeking legitimacy through licensing in major financial jurisdictions. The company’s fully compliant status in both countries ensures that it adheres to EU financial regulations, positioning it as a trustworthy partner for European crypto users.
According to company statements, the exchanges also integrate with OKX’s expanding ecosystem of DeFi-inspired financial products, offering users a bridge between centralized and decentralized trading tools.
Implications for the market
As the regulatory landscape in Europe continues to tighten under MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation), OKX’s proactive compliance and expansion may give it a competitive edge over less-regulated rivals. The company’s dual rollout could serve as a model for other global platforms looking to navigate the evolving regulatory terrain.
Additionally, we informed that OKX invites to join VIP program with reduced trading fees.
