OKX is now live, MiCA-compliant, secure, and designed for French users. Enjoy 270+ cryptos, 60+ crypto-EUR pairs, and seamless Euro access.
All eyes on our launch party in Cannes with an exclusive Mild Mild West premiere.
Welcome to a new era of money.
Bybit is focusing on liquidity aggregation and multi-language support. OKX is pushing localized products, euro trading pairs, staking, bots, and region-specific support.
This is the first wave of MiCA-native infrastructure going live. It’s not about announcing “intent” anymore—it’s about being ready. And being live.
The takeaway is simple: the MiCA era has begun. And those who adapt early, win.
