OKX Pleaded Guilty to Running an Illegal Money Business in the US. Now Circle, Ripple and Standard Chartered Are Buying In

In February 2025 OKX admitted to operating an unlicensed money transmitting business and paid $504M. On October 6, 2026, Circle, Ripple, QRT and Standard Chartered's SC Ventures invested at a $25B pre-money valuation, the same price ICE paid in March. The round size wasn't disclosed, and OKX is still paying for a DOJ-required compliance consultant until February 2027.
