OKX has grown in the past few months, helped by its sports sponsorships and general advertising. It has partnered with teams like Mclaren Racing and Manchester City. Also, it has a partnership with the Tribeca Film Festival. OKB price has done well because of the growth of its market share over the years. As we wrote in December, OKX’s inflows have been steady.
Now, as part of its evolution, OKX announced that it will create its own chain known as OKBChain. This chain will be launched in the first quarter of the year. It is another notable step by the company as it seeks to take a market share in the ecosystem.
OKX is not the only crypto exchange to launch its own chain. For example, Binance launched BNB Chain a few years ago. Today, that network powers some of the top players in the crypto industry like PancakeSwap, Aptos, and Bitgert among others.
Similarly, Crypto.com has its own Cronos, which is used to build dApps in industries like finance and NFTs. Some of the top dApps in Cronos are Tectonic and MM Finance, among others. dYdX is also building its own chain.

Therefore, the outlook of the OKX crypto price will continue rising as buyers target the key resistance point to watch will be at $60. The stop-loss of this will be at $40.
