Solayer is a restaking protocol natively built on Solana. OKX officially opened LAYER/USDT spot trading on April 25, 2025 at 6:00 PM (UTC+8). Here's the step-by-step guide.
1. Preparation: Have USDT in Your Account
The main trading pair for LAYER is LAYER/USDT, so you need USDT in your account.
If you already have USDT: skip this step and go to step 2.
If you don't have USDT yet: In the app, tap [Assets] → [Deposit], search for USDT. The system will generate a deposit address. Transfer USDT from another wallet or channel to this address. Critical risk: USDT exists on different networks like ERC-20, TRC-20, etc. You must select the exact same network shown on the OKX deposit page. Choosing a wrong network will lead to permanent loss of funds.
2. Find the LAYER Trading Pair and Place an Order
Once your funds are ready, you can buy.
Find LAYER: In the app's top search bar, type LAYER. From the results, select the LAYER/USDT spot trading pair.
Place an order: Choose a market order (immediate execution at the best available price) or a limit order (set a price you're willing to wait for). Enter the amount and confirm the order.
3. Confirm Your Asset After the Trade
After placing the order, go to [Assets] → [Spot Account]. If you see a LAYER balance, the purchase is complete. If the balance hasn't changed, check your order history in the order center to see if the order has been filled.

4. Key Risk Reminders
Verify the Contract Address: LAYER is an SPL token on the Solana chain. The contract address is LAYER4xPpTCb3QL8S9u41EAhAX7mhBn8Q6xMTwY2Yzc. Always double-check the address before trading to avoid counterfeit tokens.
Price Volatility of Newly Listed Coins: When LAYER first launched in April 2025, OKX implemented risk-control measures such as a 10,000 USDT limit per limit order and a temporary ban on market orders during the opening minutes. While these restrictions have been lifted, newly listed tokens can experience significant short-term price swings. Manage your position size carefully.
How to Confirm the Operation is Complete:
After a successful order, go to the OKX assets page and enter your spot account. If you can see a LAYER balance, the funding operation is complete. If the balance hasn't changed, check your order history to see whether the order was filled.
