How do I kickstart my journey with DApps?

DApps have long been hosted on websites and programs disconnected from one another, and it can be a bumpy journey to access them. There's a crying need for a once-and-for-all gateway to help users jumpstart immediately.

To fill in this gap, OKX has integrated popular DApps for an accessible and inclusive user experience. Visit our Discover page and with a single click, users can search and enjoy DApps on OKX.
