Liquidity: OKX leadsOKX 2 : 1
Order book depth ±0.5% at OKX is $18.7M versus $11.3M at Bybit. Also 24h volume: $1.99B at OKX versus $1.71B at Bybit.
Volume, order book and open interest come from exchange APIs and aggregators and are averaged, so one lucky day decides nothing. For a purchase of a few hundred dollars the difference is invisible, but a large order fills at market depth: the more liquidity, the less is lost to slippage.
Fees: the same2 : 2
USDT withdrawal (ERC20): 0,8 USDT at Bybit versus 0,4 USDT at OKX. On base tiers the exchanges do not differ.
Spot maker and taker fees are the base tier without discounts, taken from exchange fee pages; USDT withdrawal fees refresh from exchange APIs every 6 hours. With identical tariffs, choose by liquidity and features instead.

Uptime is measured over 30 days of Kurslog monitoring with a check every 15 minutes, founding year and proof of reserves come from the catalog, trust score from CoinGecko. A one-year gap or 0.2% of uptime counts as a tie: that is not a difference that changes anything in practice.
