1. Preparation: Register an Account and Deposit USDT

IOTX is supported on OKX with the IOTX/USDT spot trading pair, so your account must have sufficient USDT.

  • Register and complete identity verification: Download the OKX App or visit the official website to register, then follow the instructions to complete KYC.

  • Deposit USDT: In the app, go to [Assets] → [Deposit], search for USDT. The system will generate a deposit address; transfer USDT from another wallet to this address. You can also purchase USDT directly on OKX via bank transfer, credit card, etc. Bank transfers usually take 1–3 business days to process.

Key risk: USDT exists on multiple networks like ERC-20, TRC-20. Make sure to select the network that exactly matches the one shown on OKX's deposit page. Choosing the wrong network will result in permanent loss of your funds.

2. Find the IOTX Trading Pair and Place an Order

Once funds are ready, you can buy IOTX.

  • Locate IOTX: In the app's top market search bar, type IOTX, then select the IOTX/USDT spot trading pair from the results.

  • Place an order: Choose a market order (executed immediately at the best current price) or a limit order (set a price you're willing to wait for, and the order will be placed until filled). Enter the amount and confirm the order.

  • Completion indicator: After placing the order, go to [Assets] → [Spot Account] to see your IOTX balance; this confirms the purchase.

3. Critical Risk Reminders

Distinguish between spot and derivatives: OKX may also list IOTX derivatives alongside spot. If you search for IOTX in the "Derivatives Trading" section and open a position, you are using leverage to go long or short, not holding the actual token. Make sure you are on the "Spot Trading" page before placing your order.

Verify contract address: IOTX is the native token of the IoTeX network, and there is also a cross-chain version on BNB Chain with a different contract address. If you later need to withdraw IOTX from OKX to an on-chain wallet, be sure to select the correct network (IoTeX mainnet or BNB Chain) and double-check the contract address. Always obtain official addresses through the project's official website, and never copy them from social media platforms.

After a successful order, go to OKX's "Assets" page, enter "Spot Account". If you see the IOTX balance, the funding operation is complete. If the balance hasn't changed, check the "Order Center" to see if your order has been filled.
