Binance and OKX, two major cryptocurrency exchanges, have expanded in Southeast Asia and the UAE.

Binance has launched Gulf Binance, a joint venture with Gulf Innova, in Thailand, allowing Thai users to trade cryptocurrencies with local currency.

Gulf Binance aims to promote crypto adoption in the region and contribute to Thailand's digital economy.

OKX has obtained a regulatory license in Dubai, offering spot trading services to retail and institutional customers.

These developments indicate growth and increased regulation in the Asian crypto sector and the global cryptocurrency industry.
