Expanded Leveraged Trading Pairs Now Live

Starting May 14, 2025, at 17:00 HKT, OKX users can access leveraged trading for multiple emerging blockchain assets across web, mobile app, and API platforms. This upgrade supports greater market participation by enabling margin-based positions on promising projects driving innovation in decentralized computing and smart contract ecosystems.

The newly supported leveraged trading pairs include:

These pairs allow traders to go long or short using borrowed funds, amplifying potential returns—though with increased risk due to price volatility. Leverage ranges from 1.01x up to 75x, depending on position size and account tier, following a dynamic tiered margin system designed to balance accessibility with risk control.

For full details on borrowing limits, collateral requirements, and tiered margin rules, users are encouraged to review the updated Margin Tiered Levels Guide.

Earn Passive Income with ICP, CSPR, and LAT via Savings

Beyond trading, OKX now supports Savings (formerly "余币宝") functionality for ICP, CSPR, and LAT. This feature enables holders to deposit idle tokens into flexible savings accounts and earn competitive interest rates based on real-time market demand for lending these assets.

This is particularly valuable for long-term holders who wish to generate yield without selling their positions. Interest accrual begins immediately upon deposit, with payouts distributed daily. Rates fluctuate according to supply and demand dynamics within the platform’s lending pool.

⚠️ Note on Initial Funding Rates
During the initial launch phase (before May 14, 2025, 24:00 HKT), funding rates were capped at 0.03% to prevent distortions caused by early market premium fluctuations. After this period, the cap reverted to the standard ±0.75%, with the first actual funding settlement occurring on May 15 at 16:00 HKT.

All perpetual contracts follow standard risk controls such as insurance funds, auto-deleveraging systems, and mark-price-based liquidation mechanisms to ensure fair and stable trading conditions.

For comprehensive guidance on contract specifications and trading mechanics, refer to the USDT-Margined Perpetual Swap Guide.
