Overall platform status
- We recently launched our OTC Desk, allowing customers to trade large volumes of crypto with low slippage, deep liquidity and quick executions, all with minimal market impact.

Earn status
OKCoin Earn is DeFi made simply. You can deposit crypto in top DeFi protocols via Earn and start earning yield, minus the hassle and gas fees.
- Stacks: Stacking on Earn is temporarily paused as we make a product update to better align the process with the Stacks protocol. STX deposits on Earn have all been returned to customers. Stay tuned for more information on when the next Stacking cycle will open for deposits. Read our update for more details on why we’re pausing Stacking.
- All other DeFi protocol offers on Earn are functioning as usual. On OKCoin Earn, you can currently deposit stablecoins DAI, USDT and USDC into DeFi protocols Yearn and Compound to earn up to 13% APY, with no gas fees. Visit Earn to get started.
