OKX, a major global cryptocurrency exchange, has launched a direct crypto aid campaign for users in La Guaira, Venezuela, after the recent earthquake affected local communities.

OKX Uses Address Checks to Send Relief Funds

The campaign focuses on users whose registered address is in La Guaira. According to OKX, the process starts with address verification. The company checks whether the user’s registered address is located in La Guaira. If the user is eligible, the 20 USDT is credited automatically to the user’s account.

OKX said users do not need a claim code, a separate registration step, or a qualifying transaction to receive the aid. The exchange said the reward is added once eligibility is confirmed. Users can then go to their OKX wallet to view the funds.

For existing users, the key requirement is an OKX account registered in La Guaira. Meanwhile, new or unverified users must complete KYC and provide proof that their address is in the affected area.

This campaign is being provided by Aux Cayes FinTech Co. Ltd, a Seychelles-based firm that facilitates Venezuela’s users to sign up as OKX clients. The exchange added that the campaign period is based on the period that is indicated in its summary.

Crypto Exchange Sets Rules to Prevent Misuse of Aid

OKX also included several risk and compliance conditions. The company said the campaign should not be seen as investment advice or a recommendation to trade any product. It also warned that digital assets can be volatile and that the value of the reward may change before a user withdraws or uses it.

The exchange said it may exclude users, cancel eligibility, or recover rewards if it finds dishonest or abusive activity. Examples include multiple accounts, false proof of address, manipulated documents, or activity linked to fraud or illegal behavior. OKX also said it may change, suspend, or end the campaign without prior notice. 

The firm said:

“We know that the road ahead will require effort, help, and support from everyone for a long time. But you will not walk it alone. We are one region, and we will be with you on this journey. We stand with you, Venezuela.” 

The campaign demonstrates the ability of crypto platforms to facilitate the sending of small emergency payments via existing account systems. OKX is employing its verification system to determine the eligibility of users and credit funds without requiring users to go through the lengthy claim process.
