What's a private key/seed phrase?
Exposing it means losing all assets at that address. Don't manually copy your private key — 64 characters is easy to get wrong. Use the wallet's backup feature instead.

If your private key is lost and the wallet is deleted, the assets on that address can't be recovered.Where do I find seed phrases and private keys in my OKX wallet?Published on Aug 24, 2023Updated on Aug 4, 2026FAQ3,167How do I manage my wallet?

Liquidation becomes possible when a position no longer meets the maintenance margin level required under platform risk rules — in the platform's own wording, when your margin level falls below 100%.
