OKX Simple Earn (USDT) pays a yield on USDT deposited with the OKX exchange, which deploys the balance into its lending and structured-product programmes. Flexible and fixed-term options are available at variable rates. It scores 65/100 (Tier 3) on the RWTS Trust Score: OKX is a major global exchange with substantial liquidity, but the product is custodial, the yield depends on internal lending activity, and counterparty and regulatory risk apply. As with all exchange earn products, the return is a platform offering backed by the exchange's solvency, not a claim on a segregated reserve.

Beyond USDT's own score, two structural questions matter: what is it built on, and what has broken before in this part of the market. A high score in isolation can still carry hidden, shared exposure.
What this and similar assets are built on, and where contagion could spread.
The depegs, defaults, and exploits that inform the Track Record dimension.
