📄OKX-Specific Settings
Enable the withdrawal address whitelist under Security — withdrawals to new addresses then require extra confirmation. Also set a withdrawal password if your region requires it. These two settings have blocked more hack attempts than any other control.
| Setting | What It Does | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Address whitelist | Only approved addresses can receive | Malware can’t swap your destination |
| Withdrawal password | Extra PIN for withdrawals | Second layer beyond login |
| Authenticator 2FA | Time-based codes | Better than SMS (no hijack) |
| Withdrawal notification | Alert on every attempt | Early warning of compromise |
📄Fees and Minimums
OKX’s TRC20 fee is ~1 USDT, minimum ~1–5 USDT depending on your tier. Promo periods sometimes waive fees. Compare live fees in our table.
A practical note on the minimum: with a 1 USDT fee and a 5 USDT minimum on some tiers, withdrawing tiny balances can cost a large percentage. Consolidate withdrawals to stay efficient.
📄Verifying Arrival
TXID → TronScan → Success → recipient is your address → wallet balance updates. If you accidentally chose ERC20, the funds are on Ethereum — see troubleshooting.
