OKX Brings Pre-IPO Futures Trading to European Market
Crypto exchange OKX has expanded its European trading capabilities by introducing pre-IPO perpetual futures contracts linked to OpenAI and Anthropic.
The platform offers up to 10x leverage on long and short positions, allowing traders to speculate on the private market valuations of the two artificial intelligence firms without requiring actual equity ownership.
This move comes after the conclusion of MiCA's transition phase in July, which saw a fourfold increase in X-Perps trading volume in Europe.
OKX has also activated trading for 100 tokenized stock and ETF products, including major names like Google, Nvidia (NVDA), Palantir (PLTR), and the SPY and QQQ exchange-traded funds. These digital representations operate continuously, including periods when conventional equity markets remain closed.
