OKX said on November 10, 2026, that it had completed the migration of VELODROME tokens to AERO, adding that the new assets appear in funding accounts. The exchange had opened AERO deposits at 06:00 UTC on the same day. OKX set spot trading for the AERO/USDT pair to begin at 14:00 UTC on November 11. Trading will be preceded by a pre-opening phase running from 13:00 to 14:00 UTC. AERO withdrawals will begin at 16:00 UTC that day.

The trading and withdrawal schedule follows OKX's announcement that it had completed the migration, which was preceded by a conversion plan published on October 23, 2026. The exchange said at the time that VELODROME would be converted to AERO at a ratio of 1 to 0.044, and that the resulting tokens would be credited to funding accounts. The earlier announcement therefore covered the conversion rate and how the assets would be credited, while the November 10 update announced that the migration was complete and the new tokens had appeared in the account. The subsequent schedule gives separate times for deposits, spot trading and withdrawals. The trading pair announced by OKX is AERO/USDT.

According to the support plan published by OKX, the exchange took an account balance snapshot at 06:00 UTC on November 3 in preparation for the conversion. It set the planned migration window from 12:00 UTC on November 3 to 10:00 UTC on November 4, 2026. It said the window could be extended if coordination with the project team or other parties required additional time. The plan also said balances below 10 VELODROME tokens would be excluded from the conversion, with open orders excluded from the calculation of that threshold. This means balance eligibility for conversion was tied to a threshold stated in the plan, as well as the specified account snapshot and time window.

A change to VELODROME pairs on OKX preceded the migration. The plan set a window from 03:00 to 04:00 UTC on October 30, 2026, to cancel pending orders on the VELODROME/USDC and VELODROME/EUR pairs and delist them. This came before the balance snapshot on November 3 and the planned migration window over the following two days. After completing the migration, the exchange moved to a trading schedule for the new AERO token, with spot trading beginning after the pre-opening phase. According to the announcement, withdrawals will open two hours after trading begins, at 16:00 UTC on November 11.
