According to an official announcement, OKEx will put up to 20% of its total income from futures and perpetual swap transaction fees over the last seven weeks into an "incentive fund that will be issued as a one-time payment to users based on their assets and transaction conditions."

The asset weight calculation will be doubled for the exchange's native token OKB.

OKEx also says it will issue a commission rebate card valued between a minimum of 100 USDT and a maximum of 1,000 USDT for those whose assets exceeded 10,000 USDT before 4:00 pm UTC on November 23.

"Users’ continuous support and trust is crucial to the long-term sustainability of all platforms," the exchange said.

As iHodl earlier reported, OKEx plans to resume withdrawals on November 27.
