The minimum deposit amount on OKX varies depending on the cryptocurrency. For mainstream coins like BTC and ETH, the minimum deposits are 0.001 BTC and 0.01 ETH respectively. Stablecoins like USDT typically have no minimum limit but require network fees. Other cryptocurrencies' minimum deposit amounts can be checked on the deposit page. For fiat deposits (via bank card, Alipay, etc.), the minimum amount depends on the payment channel and region, generally ranging between 10-100 CNY or equivalent foreign currency.
Note: Deposits below the minimum amount may not be credited and cannot be recovered. We recommend depositing slightly above the minimum requirement to avoid disproportionately high fees.

Step 1: Registration & Account Verification
- Download the APP: Get the OKX app from the official website or app store, then register and log in.
- Identity verification: In "Account Settings," submit ID proof (e.g., passport) and complete facial recognition to enhance account security.
Step 2: Choose a Deposit Method
Cryptocurrency Deposit (e.g., BTC):
- Go to "Assets" → "Deposit", select the coin (e.g., BTC) and network (e.g., BTC-Bitcoin).
- Copy the generated deposit address or scan the QR code.
- Paste this address on the withdrawal page of the source platform (e.g., another exchange or wallet). Ensure network consistency (e.g., BTC-Bitcoin for BTC withdrawals).
- Enter the withdrawal amount and confirm. Wait for blockchain confirmation (usually 10-60 minutes).
Fiat Deposit:
- Select a supported payment method (e.g., bank card, Alipay).
- Enter the deposit amount and complete the payment. Fiat will auto-convert to a stablecoin (e.g., USDT).
Step 3: Confirm Receipt
