OKX crypto exchange seeks Dubai regulation with eye on Middle East expansion | Reuters

OKX, one of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchanges, is seeking regulatory approval to operate in Dubai as it plans to expand the company's Middle East operations, an executive told Reuters on Thursday.

Regulation is an industry trend, OKX Global Head of Government Relations Tim Byun said.

"We would like to get ahead of that curve and be regulated in a sound manner," he said.

Earlier this month, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sued Binance and Coinbase, another two of the largest crypto exchanges, for allegedly breaching its rules.
