OKX announced on October 6 that Circle, Qube Research & Technologies, Ripple and SC Ventures by Standard Chartered completed a strategic investment at a $25 billion pre-money valuation. OKX describes the financing as an extension of the round led by Intercontinental Exchange, rather than a separate operating partnership alone.

The announcement names investors and valuation but does not disclose the amount invested, ownership percentages, security terms or closing cash proceeds. It links the investors to stablecoin issuance, liquidity, collateral and custody relationships already connected to OKX. Those commercial links may deepen, but the financing announcement does not by itself establish new volume, revenue or customer adoption.
