The investment was made at a $25 billion company valuation. However, the exact amount invested and the detailed terms of the deal have not been disclosed.

Following the announcement, OKX’s native cryptocurrency, OKB, experienced a sharp increase, approaching the $120 level.

As part of the agreement, ICE will also join the OKX board of directors.

OKX will provide real-time cryptocurrency price data from its exchange to ICE.

Additionally, the platform will allow its users to trade tokenized stocks and derivatives listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

This feature is expected to become available in the second half of 2026.

Previously, in November last year, ICE invested up to $2 billion in the prediction market platform Polymarket, which is valued at approximately $9 billion.
