OKX has brought euro (EUR) and EURC markets together in one spot order book for eligible users in supported European Economic Area (EEA) jurisdictions, enabling euro-denominated trades without routing through U.S. dollar pairs.

Users can select EUR or EURC as the trading asset in supported markets. Eligible customers can also convert EUR to EURC at a 1:1 rate.

OKX announced the launch Wednesday, Oct. 21. Pair availability varies by region, and access is limited to eligible users in supported EEA jurisdictions.

EURC is a euro-denominated stablecoin issued by Circle and backed by euro reserves. The move changes the structure of OKX’s existing EURC markets rather than adding a new stablecoin listing.

The shared book lets supported EUR and EURC orders draw on the same pool. OKX has not disclosed depth or before-and-after spread or slippage figures, leaving the execution effect unquantified. The launch also extends OKX’s unified-book model beyond its dollar markets.
