OKX’s chief executive renewed criticism of USDe yield promotions, calling for stronger risk controls and transparency to avert future market disruptions.
OKX CEO Star has reiterated that irresponsible yield campaigns involving USDe contributed to the October 11 flash crash, resulting in billions in crypto liquidations. In his latest remarks, Star emphasized the need for stricter risk management and greater transparency in the crypto industry to prevent systemic failures. This follows earlier disputes with Binance, whose co-founder He Yi denied any link between Binance’s USDe product and the crash, stating their infrastructure remained stable. The incident has intensified debate among major exchanges over the promotion and regulation of high-yield products in volatile markets.
