Crypto exchange OKX is reportedly focusing on a U.S. initial public offering (IPO) with the aim of expansion in the American market.
The venture is seen as influenced by the resurgence in public listing efforts within the crypto industry.
Crypto exchange Circle’s blockbuster IPO raised roughly $1.1 billion and its stock price soared nearly fourfold, injecting renewed optimism in the crypto sector.
OKX Chief Marketing Officer Haider Rafique said the company would “absolutely consider an IPO in the future”. He added the listing would “likely be in the U.S.”
While the suggestion of a potential IPO signals to OKX’s ambitions to tap into the U.S. capital markets, so far, no official filing or timeline has been disclosed by the company.
OKX expanded its operations and established a regional headquarters in San Jose, California in April this year.
The newly appointed U.S. CEO Roshan Robert described the move as a commitment to expanding access to digital assets “in a secure, transparent, and compliant way.”
OKX is one of several major crypto firms reportedly preparing for potential public listings.
As the U.S. crypto regulatory landscape evolves after the re-election of President Donald Trump, OKX’s potential entry into public markets may become a trendsetter for the industry’s next phase of mainstream financial integration.
