OKX launches 10x OpenAI, Anthropic X-Perps in Europe

OKX has rolled out 10x leveraged perpetual contracts tracking pre-IPO valuations of OpenAI and Anthropic, alongside 100 tokenized equity markets, now available to eligible European traders. The exchange announced the new X-Perps product on September 10, expanding its derivatives offering into private company exposure. The launch has drawn attention partly due to OpenAI's connection to Sam Altman, who is also linked to Worldcoin, creating potential signaling effects for WLD holders monitoring the broader AI infrastructure landscape.

• OKX introduced 10x leveraged pre-IPO perps on two major AI firms, letting European users speculate on private company valuations without direct equity stakes.
• The product bundle includes 100 tokenized stock markets, suggesting OKX is broadening its traditional-asset-on-chain footprint across the continent.
• The Altman connection flags renewed institutional focus on AI-adjacent tokens and the blurring line between crypto and tech equity derivatives.
