Global cryptocurrency platform OKX has expanded its presence in Europe by officially launching a centralized exchange in Germany and Poland, enhancing access to regulated digital asset trading in the region.
270+ Cryptocurrencies and 60+ Euro Pairs Now Live
The new exchange platform enables users in both countries to trade more than 270 cryptocurrencies, including over 60 trading pairs against the euro. This makes OKX one of the most comprehensive crypto offerings currently available in the European market.
Euro deposits and withdrawals are supported via local options, including SEPA transfers, making the platform more convenient for regional users.
MiCA Regulatory Compliance Builds Institutional Trust
One of the most critical aspects of this launch is OKX’s alignment with the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulatory framework, the first comprehensive set of crypto rules across the European Union.
OKX has secured the first full MiCA license for its European operations—a milestone expected to attract institutional partners and deepen investor confidence in compliant digital asset trading.
Erald Ghoos, CEO of OKX Europe, stated that meeting MiCA standards ensures “secure and transparent services” and underlined the importance of supporting local languages, payment methods, and fiat access in promoting crypto adoption.
Germany and Poland: Strategic Gateways to the EU Market
With Germany and Poland being two of the EU’s most digitally engaged economies, OKX’s strategic move taps into high-potential markets. The exchange is designed to serve both retail and institutional users seeking reliable and secure access to a regulated crypto environment.
The new platform’s fiat-crypto bridge, combined with MiCA compliance, positions OKX as a leading exchange for euro-based trading in the region.
