OKCoin’s reach in the U.S. extends to 24 states

  • OKCoin added four more states to increase their overall reach to 24 states in the U.S.
  • OKCoin used to be one of the top three major crypto exchanges in China before stringent regulations forced them to shift bases.

OKCoin announced that they are going to expand their reach in the United States by adding four more states. This increases their reach to over 24 states in the region. This development has come soon after the exchange filed a money transmittal license (MTL). OKCoin used to be one of the top three major crypto exchanges in China, however, stringent regulations forced them to shift their operations overseas.

In the U.S., OKCoin’s service is currently available to users in Alabama, Georgia, Missouri, and Montana. The list of supported states also includes Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Wisconsin.

OKCoin accepts US dollars deposits and withdrawals and provides trading against Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Litecoin (LTC), Ethereum (ETH) and Ethereum Classic (ETC). More trading pairs will be supported in the future.
