support, OKX Wallet enabled support for NEAR, Blast and zkLink Nova. According to the press release, the wallet supports over 10,000 decentralized applications and 300,000 tokens and aggregates over 400 DEXs.
“Our native integration with popular and emerging chains makes it easier to explore the growing crypto ecosystems,” OKX Chief Marketing Officer Haider Rafique said in the press release.
OKX is one of the world’s largest crypto exchanges. In June, the exchange processed $63.31 billion worth of trade volume on the platform, according to The Block’s data dashboard.
In April, the crypto exchange launched X Layer, its own Ethereum-based zero-knowledge Layer 2 network, with an aim of bringing its 50 million users on-chain.
Meanwhile, TON became one of 2024’s fastest-growing blockchain ecosystems, driven by Telegram’s massive user base and the popularity of TON-based tap-to-earn games. As of Tuesday, TON has amassed a total value locked of $773 million, according to DefiLlama.
