No primary-source incident is recorded, which is not proof of none. Its terms prohibit illegal gambling only. Liability is capped at the fees you paid it in the last 12 months.

OKX Wallet review: the documents
This is a review of the documents OKX Wallet publishes, not a test of the product: no transaction was signed and no code audit was read. The binding document names no company you contract with. The custody position comes from the OKX Web3 Ecosystem Terms of Service, last updated 16 September 2026, read 2026-09-28. The record quotes 5 clauses across 4 topics, and 1 sub-service clause where the app hands a swap, purchase or staking to another party. OKX Wallet's terms place the keys with you and disclaim access to them. No cloud or hosted backup is offered; recovery depends on the copy you keep. 2 clauses let the provider suspend or withdraw access to the app; the keys stay yours, the interface does not. Liability is capped at the fees you paid it in the last 12 months. Its terms prohibit illegal gambling only. 4 points could not be verified and are listed below.
Has OKX Wallet been hacked?
No primary-source incident was found for OKX Wallet in this collection: no company disclosure, no public vulnerability register entry and no regulator action. That is not proof that none happened. It is the absence of a search result, and a forum post or a press report is not recorded here until a primary source confirms it.
Real support never asks for a seed phrase. The recovery phrase restores the whole wallet on any device, so whoever is given it can move everything it controls, and no support agent needs it to answer a question. What OKX Wallet stores, by the record: Not described in the ecosystem terms read.
Support links reached from ads or direct messages are the commonest drain. A search ad, a reply to a public complaint or a direct message offers help, the link opens a page that looks like web3.okx.com, and the page asks you to “validate” or “sync” the wallet by entering the phrase. Once it is typed in, the wallet is emptied and nothing in the terms gives a way back.
If money has already gone, the next message offering to get it back is the commonest second loss. The FBI, the FTC, the CFTC and the UK FCA warnings about it are quoted on crypto scam recovery: what is real.
What we could not verify
The gaps in this record, as the record states them. A point listed here was looked for and not confirmed; it is neither a finding for OKX Wallet nor against it.
The named service provider for the wallet. The ecosystem terms defer to supplemental agreements that were not read in this pass.
How the section 9.1 seizure power applies to a self-custody wallet, if at all. The terms do not say.
Recovery and cloud backup for the wallet. Not described in the ecosystem terms.
Documented incidents. Not searched for in this pass.
