OKX has launched OKX Crypto Rewards for customers across the European Economic Area (EEA), offering a secure, flexible way to earn yield on idle crypto assets such as USDC, BTC, SOL, and ETH, including an average historical annualised yield of around 3.5% on USDC.
The launch comes as recent regulatory changes have reshaped the European crypto landscape. Several major platforms have withdrawn or restricted stablecoin reward products for European users, leaving many customers holding idle assets with limited options to put them to work. OKX Crypto Rewards is built specifically to address this gap.
OKX Crypto Rewards provides liquidity for Spot Margin trading on OKX, enabling active traders to access the assets they need to open and manage positions. Customers’ idle assets are matched with vetted borrowers, and traders pay to borrow this liquidity in real time. This demand-driven market mechanism is what generates yield for Crypto Reward participants.
“Our European customers have made it clear: they want a compliant solution that doesn’t force them to sacrifice flexibility,” said Erald Ghoos, CEO of OKX Europe. “Crypto Rewards brings yield to European customers through a transparent lending model, while keeping assets liquid and accessible 24/7.”

For customers transitioning from platforms that have reduced yield offerings in Europe, Crypto Rewards provides a familiar yet more flexible alternative. For newer crypto holders, it offers a straightforward way to put idle assets to work without navigating complex DeFi protocols or committing to long-term lock-ups.
OKX Crypto Rewards is now available to eligible European customers via the OKX platform. Customers can activate Crypto Rewards with just a few clicks and begin earning hourly rewards immediately, while maintaining full control over their assets.
