🎯 Core Task: Use CCTP via OKX DEX for Cross-Chain USDC Swap
To be eligible for the prize pool, users must complete the following:
- Perform a cross-chain swap of any token into at least 10 USDC using the CCTP bridge on OKX DEX.
The transaction must originate from one of these networks:
- Ethereum
- Arbitrum
- Optimism
- Avalanche
This task not only rewards participation but also introduces users to Circle’s CCTP, a cutting-edge solution that allows native minting and burning of USDC across chains—eliminating reliance on liquidity pools and improving capital efficiency.
⚠️ Important Notes:
- Always verify your task after completion. Unverified actions won’t count toward rewards.
- Verification takes at least 10 minutes due to blockchain confirmation delays. Avoid last-minute submissions.
- OKX reserves the right to disqualify users or cancel the event without prior notice based on compliance checks.

🔗 About CCTP: Powering Native Cross-Chain USDC Transfers
Developed by Circle, the CCTP (Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol) is a permissionless, open-source protocol that enables trust-minimized transfers of USDC across blockchains.
Unlike traditional bridges that lock and mint tokens using pooled liquidity, CCTP works by:
- Burning USDC on the source chain
- Minting native USDC on the destination chain
This mechanism removes dependency on third-party liquidity providers and reduces counterparty risk. It also ensures that USDC remains fully backed and consistent in value across ecosystems.
By integrating CCTP into OKX DEX, users enjoy faster, safer, and more cost-effective cross-chain transactions—making it easier than ever to move value across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Avalanche.

Q: Who is eligible for this campaign?
A: Both new and existing OKX Wallet users can participate as long as they complete and verify the required task during the event window.
