Hey! What you're describing is Enhanced Due Diligence, specifically a Source of Wealth check, different from a Source of Funds check. SoF asks "where did this deposit come from"; SoW asks "how did you accumulate your overall net worth." Exchanges are legally allowed to request SoW under FATF Recommendation 10 and most national AML frameworks, but only when risk indicators justify it, and it must be proportionate to the account activity.
A few things worth knowing:
1. Structuring triggers this**.** Repeated small deposits/withdrawals tied to airdrops, hot wallets, and DEX meme-coin activity is a classic pattern that trips transaction-monitoring rules. That's likely why you're stuck, not the dollar amount.
2. Ask which regulator licenses the specific OKX entity holding your funds. Under most licenses, indefinite freezing without either releasing funds or filing a formal SAR/STR and notifying you of a legal basis is not compliant. You can file a complaint directly with that regulator.
3. Ask OKX in writing for the specific policy clause and risk rating that triggered EDD: vague, unresponsive requests are themselves a documentable compliance failure.
