New controls that make it easy to grant levels of access while protecting the account from unwanted risk for for token foundations, investors and trading teams
OKX.com now offers customers, specifically token foundations and high-net-worth investors, easier ways to create, manage and grant access to sub-accounts. We are excited about launching these features to put our customers at ease by giving them more account management controls that help reduce counterparty risk.
At OKX, we don’t use any of our customer funds for leverage or trading. We believe any such activity without consent of the customer is unethical. At the same time, we feel it is important for entities to understand counterparty risk when entrusting their treasuries to money managers or a trading team.
Recent events in the industry, such as the incident with 3AC, makes it urgent for us to roll out these features and provide our customers and entities with more control over granting different levels of access within their account. We fundamentally believe it is important for each account owner to be able to permission and have complete knowledge of any trading activity that occurs while using their funds. We believe this is crucial for mitigating systematic risk in the formation of the crypto industry’s next stage of maturity.
With Custody Trading sub-accounts on OKX, third-parties or trading teams cannot move funds directly.This is critical for project teams, and high-net-worth investors who typically have a third party trading or advisory team for treasury management. Unfortunately, the Three Arrows Capital incident has highlighted what can happen when the trustless and transparent crypto industry acts on trust and opaqueness. We’re committed to helping users mitigate this kind of systematic risk.
These controls are not meant to limit trading teams or money managers. Our new updates ensure that these new controls don’t restrict any one of the involved parties. In fact, we believe the transparency and new controls will enable a more productive relationship between account owners, foundation teams, money managers and trading teams.
