Bitcoin and litecoin
Users can deposit BTC and/or LTC into their accounts at any time using provided QR codes and addresses, and can place market and limit orders from anywhere.
A ‘tap-to-buy’ feature also allows them to simply tap on any current order in the order book list and fill the price field with that price.
OKCoin says this will allow speculators who watch every price movement to never miss an opportunity, even when out and about.
Security
An extra layer of security protects against coin theft if the device is lost or stolen, allowing users to set up a gesture-based password on top of the normal character-based one.
OKCoin said of the new version:
“This latest update reaffirms OKCoin’s position of dedication towards improving user experience and offering as many features as possible.”
International competition
The interface is also available in English. OKCoin, like other large Chinese exchanges, has made a concerted effort this year to appeal to international customers as well as Mainland Chinese traders with improved feature sets and more sophisticated mobile apps.
Competition has been fierce in the space, with the companies having to battle on multiple fronts against the government, banks and each other while at the same time trying to attract venture funding.
OKCoin announced in March it had secured over $10m from local companies associated with prominent Silicon Valley investors.
