Intercontinental Exchange, which owns the prominent stock exchange, will also work with OKX to provide the crypto company\u2019s users with access to tokenized futures and equities, added the spokesperson.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/crosscountrymovingteams.com\/?p=1942\">Saxby Chambliss: America can\u2019t win the AI race without more plumbers and electricians<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can virtually walk through the front door of the New York Stock Exchange through your smartphone, and you can do that seven days a week in a way you never could before,\u201d Cuomo told <em>Fortune<\/em>.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The venture comes after Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) announced in March that it had invested in OKX at a $25 billion valuation.

Cuomo said he will spend the majority of his time overseeing the joint venture between ICE and OKX, while also working with a handful of nonprofits and philanthropies that he declined to name.
