OKX, a leading global fintech company and crypto trading platform, today announced the launch of stock contracts, allowing traders in available regions, including Ukraine, to gain 24/7 access to leading stocks and indices using cryptocurrency as margin.
All USDT-denominated contracts offer up to 5x leverage and are traded 24/7, allowing clients to react to earnings reports, macroeconomic events, and important announcements in real time, even when traditional markets are closed. Additional contracts will be announced in the coming weeks.
The launch includes contracts for:
The full list of the «Magnificent Seven»: Nvidia (NVDA), Tesla (TSLA), Apple (AAPL), Alphabet (GOOGL), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN) and Meta (META).
Crypto sector: MSTR (MicroStrategy), COIN (Coinbase), HOOD (Robinhood), CRCL (Circle).
Technology leaders: PLTR (Palantir), INTC (Intel), MU (Micron Technology), SNDK (SanDisk).
Index instruments: SPY (S&P 500)
With stock contracts, traders can use BTC, ETH, USDT, and assets involved in the Auto Investing feature as collateral. Assets used as margin continue to generate income while maintaining open positions, allowing traders to efficiently use capital and gain access to global stock markets.
«For the past eight years, we have focused on building a robust infrastructure and deep liquidity for digital asset markets,» said OKX founder and CEO Star Xu. «With the launch of stock contracts, we are expanding this infrastructure to provide access to global stock markets, allowing traders to store their crypto portfolios. This is an important step towards integrating a wider range of real assets on our platform.»
OKX offers true single cross-margining for crypto and stock futures. While other platforms require funds to be transferred between separate accounts and limit collateral to USDT, OKX clients can use their entire portfolio — including USDT, BTC, ETH, and staked assets — as margin for all positions in a single account. Staked asset balances continue to generate income while securing open positions.
This launch is the first step in a larger strategy to expand the platform’s portfolio of stock contracts, markets, and tokenized real assets. In the coming months, we plan to add new equity-based products and expand access to real assets.
OKX is a fintech company with a mission to modernize finance and markets. Today, over 120 million people worldwide use its services to invest, transact, and trade digital assets across a variety of financial instruments, including spot, futures, and decentralized markets. As one of the largest platforms in the world, OKX is known for its exchange, wallet, and on-chain ecosystem, which is used by both retail investors and large institutional players.
