If your withdrawal is stuck in risk review, it usually means the system sees something unusual about this transaction or your current environment. It is protecting you, not blocking you.

First, check three things: whether you have completed face verification, whether the withdrawal address shows a risk warning, and whether you recently changed security settings often. In most cases, this is "passive risk control" and you need to confirm your action.
Common Triggers and Solutions
Case 1: The receiving address is new or has been flagged by the community. If you have never sent funds to this address before, or if it is marked on-chain as fraud or a blacklisted address, the system will block it. Check whether the address is correct. If it belongs to someone you know or your own wallet, refreshing the page and completing face verification usually works.
Case 2: Your behavior suddenly changed (IP / device / frequency). Logging in with a new device, or in a city you have never used before, and making a large withdrawal can trigger system protection. To fix this, complete face verification in the app, or wait for the limit to be removed automatically.
Case 3: Account security settings are incomplete. If KYC is not finished, or Google Authenticator is not bound, withdrawals may be limited. Usually you can complete verification in the app's "Security Center."
Case 4: You triggered "withdrawal protection" or "address risk warning." If the system says "this address is risky," the page usually has a "confirm and continue" option. You need to tap it. After that, you may be asked to complete face verification or enter a verification code.
What You Can Do Now
When risk control appears, first read the page message. It will tell you whether to provide more materials or do face verification. If there is no clear instruction, go to the app's "Security Center" and check for pending verification tasks. If you complete face verification and it is still stuck, keep screenshots and the withdrawal ID, then contact OKX online support.

Important Note
Any risk control measure is buying you time to make a decision. The platform will not keep your funds because of risk review; it only temporarily limits this transaction. Do not trust any third party that claims to "speed up review," and never give anyone your Google Authenticator code or withdrawal password.
