OKX aims for massive expansion

According to the announcement, despite the current market conditions, the exchange aims to work on its growth ambitions by remaining confident with its outlook on the crypto industry. Focusing on the long-term picture, OKX sees the “bear market” as an opportunity to “build and improve” its “culture, product, and customer service capabilities.”

The “careful and deliberate hiring plan” by the exchange ensures sustainable expansion during this period. It is accelerating its recruitment plan with a plan to increase its workforce by 30% to reach a total of 5,000 people within the next year.

Moreover, OKX also plans to become the first crypto exchange platform to achieve gender balance. Currently, the exchange’s global leadership team includes 40% of female employees, and it is continuing to attract the best talent from all walks of life, regardless of gender or race. The exchange noted the importance of diversity in the crypto industry by stating:

“This level of commitment to diversity is important to us towards creating a more inclusive financial system that creates a level playing field for all.”

Binance and Kraken also plan expansion

While several crypto exchanges like Crypto.com (cutting workforce by 5%), Coinbase (global downsizing by 18%), and BlockFi (laying off 20% of the staff) are brutally trimming their workforces to survive the adverse market conditions, exchanges like Binance, Kraken, and now OKX are determined to take advantage of this situation to expand themselves.

Recently, a Binance spokesperson reportedly said that the exchange has more than 2,000 open positions, with its job board showing roles across Asia, Africa, Europe, South America, and the Middle East. 

Kraken also revealed its intention to increase its staff size by hiring over 500 new employees.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
