Corrections Log

When a reader flags a factual error, we correct the original article and log the change here within 7 days. We don't delete the original wording — old and new sit side by side so you can see exactly what changed. Standard newsroom practice, also codified in our editorial policy.

How a correction is handled

  1. Report — readers email [email protected] with the factual error.
  2. Verify — the editorial team validates the claim within 7 days.
  3. Correct — we edit the original article, add a revision note to the top of the piece, and log it here.
  4. Transparent diff — we keep the original wording visible; old and new appear side by side.
  5. Credit — we credit the reader who flagged it, when they're comfortable being named.
  6. Major errors — if a correction changes the core conclusion of an article, we additionally surface it in the homepage "Updates" section.

Factual error about how OKX rebates settle. Our original copy said the rebate "settles automatically each month", but OKX's Affiliate system actually pays in real time — each hour, OKX aggregates the prior hour's qualifying trades and credits the rebate to the affiliate's "Affiliate Center." It is not a monthly settlement. The error described OKX's real advantage (real-time crediting) as if it were industry-average (monthly), which actually understates OKX. All 9 affected mentions across the site have been corrected.

Rebates settle automatically each month to your OKX "Affiliate Center"
Rebates settle in real time — OKX aggregates each hour and credits to your OKX "Affiliate Center"

Thanks to the reader who flagged this. This is exactly why we keep a public Corrections Log — even when the error happens to favor us (OKX's real mechanism is actually better than we described), the error is still an error and gets corrected publicly.

On the referral code page, the "Your potential benefit" cell originally read "varies (depends on current OKX promotions)". A reader noted the wording was vague and asked us to spell out the fee rebate of up to 20% mechanism directly.

Your potential benefit: varies (depends on current OKX promotions)
What you get: fee rebate of up to 20%* (worked example: $500 in monthly trading fees → OKX credits roughly $100 back to you, settled in real time each hour in the "Affiliate Center")

The original referral page title "OKX Referral Code 2026 — How to use it + how to enter it + caveats" was easy to misread as "referral code = 2026." We rewrote the title to put the year and the actual referral string up front.

OKX Referral Code 2026 — How to use it + how to enter it + caveats | CryptoDesk
2026 OKX Referral Code OK18866 — Sign up for a fee rebate of up to 20% | CryptoDesk
