-4% employee growth in 12 months
Our take
With a vision of building an inclusive future of finance, San Francisco-based Okcoin is a cryptocurrency exchange that helps millions of people buy and sell Bitcoin, Ethereum, and countless other crypto assets. The company is multifaceted but notably offers institutional trading tools and APIs to various clients from asset managers to hedge funds.
Serving around 200 countries and territories, Okcoin is one the largest cryptocurrency platforms in the world. The company also stands out for its inclusivity efforts, dedicating capital to bringing more women into the cryptocurrency market with a goal of having 50% female customers by 2025.
Despite its success as a trading platform, Okcoin has not been immune to the downturn of bitcoin value in late 2022 and early 23. After Miamicoin and NYCCoin experienced a bout of low liquidity, Okcoin was forced to suspend their trade. Despite some of its hosted currencies experiencing a downturn, Okcoin continues to invest in NFT bodies and Web 3.0 organizations, indicating its continued robustness.
