Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) and OKX announce a joint venture to connect traditional market infrastructure with crypto trading services, expanding access to tokenized equities and related derivatives. The partnership is described as a 50-50 venture and is co-chaired by former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. Under the plan, OKX’s customer base of roughly 120 million global users would gain access to ICE futures markets as well as NYSE tokenized equities markets. The outlets describe the initiative as a bridge between “tradfi” (traditional finance) and crypto, using tokenized offerings linked to established Wall Street venues. The firms frame the effort as broadening availability of tokenized securities and futures exposure for OKX users both in the United States and internationally. The announcements outline the structure and intended market reach of the venture, but they do not provide additional details in the excerpts about timelines, specific product listings, or regulatory approvals.
