Cointime Official

OKX Wallet, a leading self-custody solution for digital assets in Web3, today announced a strategic partnership with Rocket Pool to enhance the efficiency of DeFi farming and improve the security of Ethereum staking. Rocket Pool, the first decentralized, trustless ETH 2.0 Proof of Stake Protocol, has integrated OKX Wallet on its website, allowing users to stake ETH in Rocket Pool directly via the OKX Wallet web extension.

Meanwhile, OKX Discover, a one-stop platform for accessing decentralized applications, now supports Rocket Pool, allowing users to directly interact with the Rocket Pool product through the OKX Discover platform. The strategic partnership between OKX Wallet and Rocket Pool will provide users with a seamless entry to the Web3 ecosystem and create a more efficient and secure environment for DeFi farming and Ethereum staking.

Both companies aim to promote the non-custodial, trustless nature of Ethereum and DeFi, allowing self-sovereignty to thrive. As part of a strategic shift into DeFi, OKX Wallet has also launched OKX Yield, a robust farming module built within the OKX Wallet that allows anyone to participate in DeFi easily, conveniently, and safely, and helps users achieve asset appreciation. OKX Yield will continue to discover high-quality on-chain investment opportunities and bring more DeFi products to Web3 users.

About Rocket Pool

Rocket Pool is a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol that offers a liquid staking solution for Ethereum. It allows users to join an Ethereum decentralized node operator or run their own node with a lower capital requirement than conventional staking solutions, as users can run their own node with just 16 Ether instead of the network specified 32 ETH. Depositors receive a liquid staking token rETH in exchange for their ETH, which proves the user is entitled to staking rewards over time and accrues yield.

  • Sources: Saudi Arabia Plans to Expand Oil Pipeline to Red Sea, Increasing Capacity by 2 Million Barrels Daily to Bypass Strait of Hormuz

    On July 7, five informed sources revealed that Saudi Arabia is considering expanding the crude oil pipeline capacity to its western coast on the Red Sea, allowing Saudi Arabia and its neighbors to transport more oil without passing through the Strait of Hormuz. This east-west pipeline, built in the early 1980s, has gained strategic importance since the outbreak of the Iran war in February and the disruption of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. The pipeline can deliver up to 7 million barrels of crude oil per day to the Red Sea port. The CEO of Saudi Aramco stated in May that approximately 2 million barrels are supplied to west coast refineries, while about 5 million barrels are for export. Sources indicate that Saudi Arabia is in preliminary discussions with some neighboring countries regarding the pipeline expansion, aiming to add about 2 million barrels of pipeline capacity per day. It remains unclear whether Aramco's planned expansion involves upgrading existing infrastructure or constructing new pipelines. One source mentioned that the expansion plan also includes a smaller refined oil pipeline. Two sources indicated that the expansion scale could range from 1 million to 2 million barrels per day, with refined oil also being considered. Another source stated that the project would take several years and cost billions of dollars, requiring adjustments to Saudi crude pricing mechanisms.
