OKX to support Optimism mainnet upgrade

Published on Jan 11, 2024Updated on Apr 11, 20242 min read

We are excited to announce we will be supporting the Optimism network’s mainnet upgrade.

  • The Optimism network upgrade and hard fork will take place at approximately 5:00 pm UTC on January 11, 2024.

  • Deposits and withdrawals of OP tokens and tokens belonging to its network will be suspended at 3:00 pm UTC on January 11, 2024.

  • We will resume deposits and withdrawals for impacted tokens on the OP network once the upgraded OP network is stable. We won’t be making a separate announcement once this is complete.

  • For the safety of your funds, do not make any further withdrawals or deposits of OP tokens and tokens belonging to its network during the upgrade period.


Please note:

  • The trading of OP tokens and tokens belonging to the OP networks won’t be affected during this network upgrade. Please be aware of the risks associated with the spot, margin, and derivatives trading of these tokens, and make sure you increase your margin to lower your risk.

  • You don’t need to do anything if you hold any OP tokens and tokens belonging to the OP network in your account. We will handle all technical requirements involved.
