- [Okto Wallet](https://thegrid.id/profiles/CoinDCX): Okto Wallet is a self-custody multi-chain wallet that lets users store keys and manage digital assets across multiple blockchain networks. It enables cross-chain swaps, gas-fee abstraction, and bridging between networks, along with trading of derivatives and spot markets sourced from a connected trading venue. The wallet uses multi-party computation for social-login key security and offers passive-income access to staking, liquidity, and vault opportunities across several protocols. It also functions as an embedded wallet that third-party applications can integrate for their own users. (Wallet, Live)
- [Okto Chain](https://thegrid.id/profiles/CoinDCX): Okto Chain is a Layer 2 blockchain that abstracts cross-chain complexity through unified wallet, transaction, and liquidity layers for applications built on top of it. It settles transactions back to an underlying Layer 1 network while allowing developers to build multi-chain experiences without managing separate chain integrations. The network underpins the Okto Wallet and other applications requiring unified account and liquidity abstraction across multiple blockchains. (L2, Inactive/Support Ended)

The platform operates as a separate learning resource from CoinDCX's trading services. (Education and Training, Live)

It works through REST and socket-based interfaces that allow trading applications and bots to interact with the exchange without a browser interface. The service is aimed at algorithmic traders and businesses building automated integrations with the exchange. (Developer Tooling, Live)
- [CoinDCX OTC](https://thegrid.id/profiles/CoinDCX): CoinDCX OTC is an over-the-counter trading desk that facilitates large-volume cryptocurrency transactions between counterparties outside the public order book.

It deploys illiquid investments into founding teams building decentralized infrastructure and applications, taking equity or token positions rather than trading liquid markets. The fund operates as a distinct arm from CoinDCX's exchange business, supporting startups with funding and networking. (Venture Fund, Live)

## Assets
