      Published: just now

      OKX, a global crypto exchange and onchain technology company, has launched its fully regulated centralised crypto exchange in France, enabled by MiCA passporting. The launch was marked by an exclusive screening of its short film, 'Mild Mild West', at a red carpet event in Cannes.
       

      French users now have access to spot trading, staking, trading bots, and more than 270 cryptocurrencies, including over 60 crypto-Euro pairs. OKX’s platform offers features such as crypto earn products, automated trading bots, and a roadmap of localised services tailored specifically for the French market. The company says it is focusing on regulation and customer experience, providing infrastructure with fully localised customer support.

      Erald Ghoos, CEO of OKX Europe, commented, “Launching our MiCA-compliant platform in France is a major milestone in our European expansion. France is a key market for us, and we're proud to offer a fully regulated, localised experience with seamless Euro access, low fees, and deep liquidity. We're committed to building trust through compliance, transparency, and world-class service tailored to the French crypto community.”

      To celebrate the launch, OKX hosted a red carpet event in Cannes featuring a screening of 'Mild Mild West', a film which challenges the “wild west” stereotype of the crypto industry and highlights its evolution towards regulation and trust. The film stars Vincent Cassel, Chazz Palminteri, and Bonnie Chen.
       

      The French launch follows a year of global expansion for OKX, which has reported a double-digit percentage increase in active users, a substantial rise in assets under management, and more than 30% workforce growth across the European Economic Area. OKX has recently hosted launch events in Berlin, Warsaw, and Madrid, and last year expanded into the Netherlands and Belgium.
       

      OKX is MiCA-compliant and was among the first global exchanges to meet the new regulatory standard, passporting its products and services via its licence from Malta. The company publishes monthly Proof of Reserves, with 31 consecutive monthly snapshots, aiming to set industry standards for transparency and user protection.
       

      OKX is trusted by more than 60 million customers worldwide and operates regional offices in San José, Dubai, New York, Hong Kong, Singapore, Türkiye, Australia, and across Europe. The company holds licences in the United States, UAE, EEA, Singapore, Australia, and other markets.
       

      The Cannes event and film screening are notable moves for a crypto exchange, highlighting OKX’s efforts to reshape perceptions around the industry’s regulatory maturity and transparency.

      Most FX and CFD brokers believe their reporting is accurate. Few can explain precisely how their volume figures are calculated, how spread revenue is derived, or how multi-currency denominations affect their net profit numbers. Inaccurate brokerage reporting is one of the industry's least discussed problems - management teams are making decisions, filing regulatory returns and reporting to stakeholders based on figures that contain systematic errors. This article explains why accurate brokerage reporting is genuinely complex, what the most common sources of error are, and what brokers can do to get their numbers right.
