ISTANBUL, May 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- OKX, the second-largest crypto platform by trading volume and a leading Web3 technology company, today announced that it plans to open an office in Türkiye in the coming months.

The announcement was made prior to the Blockchain Economy Istanbul Summit 2023, of which OKX is a Title Sponsor and Premium Partner. During the Summit, OKX President Hong Fang, Chief Innovation Officer Jason Lau and Chief Marketing Officer Haider Rafique will deliver keynotes and panels discussing Türkiye's importance for OKX's global expansion - and their belief in the country's potential for Web3 and blockchain innovation.

OKX President Hong Fang said: "Opening an office in Türkiye will be a crucial step for OKX as we move from a trust-based system to one that is trustless and empowers users to take control of their financial future. Türkiye is an important market for us, and we're excited to build strong relationships with our users and contribute to the development of its crypto ecosystem."

OKX Chief Innovation Officer Jason Lau said: "Türkiye is a growing center of innovation and blockchain expertise, with a user base that has a strong appetite for crypto. We believe that establishing a physical presence in Türkiye will help us better understand the needs of our Turkish users and contribute to the growth of its crypto community."
