OKB Jumps 23% After NYSE Parent Invests in OKX

OKB surged about 23% in the past 24 hours, becoming one of the day’s biggest crypto gainers. The rally followed news that Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, has invested in crypto exchange OKX at a $25 billion valuation and secured a board seat. The partnership plans to bring tokenized NYSE stocks and futures trading to OKX users by late 2026. Data from CoinGecko shows the move added roughly $640 million to OKB’s market value in one session, with analysts noting no signs of insider trading before the announcement.
