OKX to activate the price protection mechanism for the RWA token index

Published on Nov 6, 20252 min read

To mitigate market risks, OKX will activate the price protection mechanism for the RWA (Real-World Asset) token index on November 14, 2025. The specific rules are as follows:

RWA token index final price = Clamp [RWA token index price, corresponding real-world asset price × (1 – X), corresponding real-world asset price × (1 + X)]. The RWA token index final price will be restricted in the range [corresponding real-world asset price × (1 – X), corresponding real-world asset price × (1 + X)].

Here’s an example using the XAUT/USD index. If we set parameter X to 10% and use the XAU/USD price as the reference, here’s how the index is calculated:

Exchanges XAUT-USD Price Index component weight Index price calculation Real-world asset price (XAU/USD) RWA token index final price
A 2,900 25% 2,900 × 25% + 2,950 × 25% + 2,920 × 50% = 2,922.5 4200
Clamp(2,922.5, 4,200×0.9, 4,200×1.1) = Clamp(2,922.5, 3,780, 4,620) = 3,780
B 2,950 25%
C 2,920 50%

OKX will source the corresponding real-world asset price from multiple data providers.

Please note: Price protection is enabled for the XAUT/USDT and XAUT/USD indices (threshold X = 10%). Based on market conditions, OKX may enable protection for additional RWA indices, disable protection, or adjust parameters without further notice.
