ICE Brent and ICE WTI Perpetual Futures to Launch on OKX

OKX, a blockchain technology and trading company serving more than 120 million customers globally,and Intercontinental Exchange (NYSE: ICE), one of the world's leading providers of financial market technology and data powering global capital markets including the New York Stock Exchange, today announced plans for OKX to launch perpetual futures based on ICE's Brent Crude and WTI Crude energy benchmarks.

The products are expected to be available to trade on OKX’s platform in jurisdictions where OKX is licensed to offer perpetual futures products. The new OKX contracts represent a major step forward in expanding regulated access to global commodity markets through digital asset infrastructure.

This first product collaboration between OKX and ICE comes after the companies established a strategic relationship in March 2026. ICE operates some of the world’s leading exchanges, clearing houses and market data services across energy, commodities, fixed income and equities markets.

ICE’s futures prices for Brent and WTI will underpin the new perpetual contracts offered on OKX’s platform. Brent Crude and WTI are among the world’s most widely referenced oil benchmarks.

"Oil markets are critical to the world economy. ICE’s Brent and WTI futures markets provide the benchmark prices that energy traders everywhere rely on. Bringing them into regulated perpetual futures is exactly the kind of bridge between traditional and digital markets that market participants have been asking for," said Haider Rafique, Global Managing Parter at OKX. "This launch gives retail traders access to the world's most important energy benchmarks in a regulated, transparent environment. That's a meaningful step forward as we modernize money and markets."

By integrating globally recognized commodity benchmarks into regulated digital markets, OKX and ICE are establishing new pathways for users to access some of the world’s most important energy markets.

“These new OKX perpetual contracts, based on ICE’s deep, liquid, transparent, and global oil markets, allow OKX’s customer base of 120 million retail traders to access energy benchmark products,” said Trabue Bland, Senior Vice President, Futures Exchanges at ICE. 

The launch comes at a time of accelerating interest in tokenized finance, regulated derivatives and real-world asset products globally. For OKX, the launch reflects the company’s broader strategy of expanding regulated infrastructure and building products designed for long-term participation in global financial markets. OKX continues to invest in licensed market expansion, institutional infrastructure and products that bridge digital assets with traditional financial markets.
