The rollout will happen in stages, with broader nationwide access expected by the end of 2025. According to Robert, the platform aims to evolve into an all-in-one crypto solution, with new features expected throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>OKX\u2019s U.S. re-entry comes on the heels of a costly legal resolution. Earlier this year, the company agreed to pay over $500 million in a settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice. The case centered on allegations that OKX, through its affiliate Aux Cayes FinTech Co. Ltd., operated in the U.S. without the necessary licensing. The DOJ accused the firm of serving U.S. customers despite official restrictions, including claims that staff instructed users on how to circumvent those rules.<\/p>\n<style>\n    .dark-mode .read-more {background-color: #343a40 !important;}\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"read-more pb-3 pt-3 pt-md-2 px-3 my-4 border bg-light\">\n    <h5 class=\"text-uppercase border-bottom mb-3 pb-1 d-none d-md-block\">READ MORE:<\/h5>\n    <a class=\"article row\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/bitcoin-faces-uncertainty-after-wild-swings-as-sell-signals-emerge\/\" title=\"Bitcoin Faces Uncertainty After Wild Swings as Sell Signals Emerge\">\n        <div class=\"contentRight col-4\">\n            <span class=\"imgContainer mt-0\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image img-defer\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/12\/bitcoin-sign-1f-240x170.webp\">\n            <\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"contentLeft col-8\">\n            <h4 class=\"title mb-0\">Bitcoin Faces Uncertainty After Wild Swings as Sell Signals Emerge<\/h4>           \n            \n        <\/div>        \n    <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>As part of the agreement, OKX paid $84 million in penalties and forfeited $421 million in revenue earned from U.S. users.
