Take Your Trading Onchain with Perps and Spot

Onchain Perps and Spot are coming to the OKX app in our public beta. Eligible customers across Southeast Asia, Northeast Asia, the CIS region and MENA can explore selected stock, index and commodity markets around the clock, from the same OKX account they already use for crypto. A self-custodial Onchain Account can be set up in the app with a passkey.

The venues run on Exchange OS, built on X Layer. Order matching, liquidations and funding take place onchain. You can place trades, manage positions and review market rules in the familiar OKX mobile app.

Choose a Spot market or open a Perps position from your Onchain Account. You can move between the two trading venues in the OKX app, alongside Outcomes which uses the same Onchain Account.

This setup brings direct access to traditional markets, including equities, commodities and indices, all within one mobile interface. The Onchain Account is designed to support a unified balance across Spot, Perps and Outcomes, keeping your multi-asset exposure under a single, coherent balance.

The mobile trading screen provides familiar exchange controls. Use Buy and Sell or Open and Close modes, choose cross or isolated margin for Perps, and check your orders, positions and trade history in the app. Market Info gives you contract rules, position tiers and funding history to review before trading.

You can access the venues from your existing verified OKX account, with passkey setup, sponsored gas and account recovery built into the experience. Exchange OS runs the trading engine. Matching, funding, liquidations and settlement take place onchain, while you manage trades and positions directly from your phone.

From 15 October to 14 November, eligible users can test features and execution flows in public beta through the Season 3 points campaign. You can try live trading with free XP, follow weekly leaderboards, and compete for rewards under campaign rules without risking capital. XP serves as a campaign trading balance with no cash value.

Season 3 brings Outcomes, Perps and Spot into one competition with a 250,000 USDT shared reward pool. Eligible users join automatically, and rankings are based on eligible trading profit and loss, or PnL. You can follow your results on the season and weekly leaderboards. Completing daily tasks earns you extra XP; while these task-based points do not count as trading profit toward your PnL rank, they increase your overall balance, giving you more equity to open larger positions.

Real-asset trading will open after the competition ends. You will be able to fund your Onchain Account from your OKX exchange account, with Spot and Perps settling onchain in USDS pegged 1:1 to USDC. Campaign XP and positions will not become funded positions.

1. Open the OKX app on iOS or Android and go to Onchain Perps and Spot under the 'Trade' tab or go to Onchain under the 'Explore' tab.

2. Tap Enable Trading to enable your Onchain Account and claim your starter XP.

3. Select a Spot or Perps market, set your parameters, and place your trade.

4. Complete daily trading tasks to earn extra XP task points and advance on the weekly leaderboards.

Visit the campaign page in the OKX app to review your rank, daily tasks, and full reward rules.
