Welcome to the OKExChain¶
Introduction¶
What is OKExChain?¶
OKExChain is a set of open-source blockchain projects developed by OKEx, aiming to promote the development of large-scale commercial applications based on blockchain technology. It gives each participating node the same rights, allowing users to launch a variety of decentralized applications smoothly, issue their digital assets, create their own digital asset trading pairs, and trade freely. The utilisation of cross-chain technology principles is essential to allow those features to be used by anyone. Through the cross-chain module, the value interconnectivity and user interconnectivity, interconnectivity of blockchain can be realized simply and efficiently, so that we can co-construct the ecosystem and the value-added system.

The OKT¶
Do you have OKT tokens? With OKT, you have the unique ability to contribute to the security and governance of the OKExChain. Delegate your OKT to one or more of the 100 validators on the OKExChain blockchain to earn more OKT through Proof-of-Stake. You can also vote with your OKT to influence the future of the OKExChain through on-chain governance proposals.

OKExChain Explorer¶
The OKExChain block explorer allows you to search, view and analyze OKExChain data—like blocks, transactions, validators as well as other key information
OKExChain CLI¶
exchaincli
is a command-line interface that lets you interact with
the OKExChain. exchaincli
is the only tool that supports 100% of the
OKExChain features, including accounts, transfers, delegation, and
governance. Learn more about exchaincli
with the delegator’s CLI
guide.
Running a full-node on the OKExChain Testnet¶
In order to run a full-node on the OKExChain testnet, you must first install exchaind. Then, follow the guide.
If you would like to run a validator node, follow the validator setup guide.
