- OKX launches fully regulated exchanges in Germany and Poland, aligned with MiCA
- Over 270 cryptos and 60+ EUR trading pairs supported with SEPA integration
- Germany leads EU crypto growth; Poland positions itself as a rising crypto hub
- MiCA compliance may attract institutions and shift the public narrative
OKX just made its European play official, launching fully compliant centralized exchanges in Germany and Poland, complete with MiCA alignment and SEPA support.
That’s not just a territorial grab — it’s a statement.
The new exchanges will give European users access to 270+ cryptocurrencies and 60+ crypto-to-euro pairs, all backed by local banking infrastructure. SEPA integration means users can fund and withdraw directly in euro without juggling wallets or workarounds.
There’s also the regulatory layer that matters more than ever. By securing the first full MiCA license in the region, OKX is setting a precedent for what crypto could look like inside Europe’s evolving regulatory framework: secure, transparent, and, importantly, institutional-grade.
Germany, already forecasted to lead Europe’s crypto market growth through 2030, looks like the natural first frontier.
Poland, meanwhile, is quickly catching up — especially after the recent election of pro-Bitcoin leader Karol Nawrocki, signaling a potential shift in national policy toward digital assets.
This isn’t just another exchange trying to slap a few KYC features on an offshore model. This is a bet on Europe’s future — a version where crypto isn’t fighting regulation, but fully plugged into it.
