BTCUSD tumbled to almost a mammoth 25% in this month (price dip from this month’s highs of 9990 to the current 7476 levels).
Amid this price movement, hedge fund flows have poured in cryptocurrencies that have had an average return of 1,522% in the recent past, compared to an average of 7.2% for hedge funds invested in conventional assets classes.
Crypto hedge funds have largely relied on "over the counter" market makers to purchase cryptocurrencies rather than transparent and centralized exchanges. This is because most of the crypto exchanges globally cannot handle the order sizes required without big changes in price. Startups such as B2C2, Circle, and Coinbase have emerged as leading over-the-counter brokers for institutions, but the sums involved remain small compared with other asset classes.
Well, LMAX Digital is the only most liquid and well-known cryptocurrencies that offers: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Ripple and Bitcoin Cash trades. The trading is viable 24/7 and administered efficiently by similar rules and principles as LMAX Exchange’s FCA regulated MTF (Multilateral Trading Facility). This ensures the exchange operates with best-of-breed security, compliance, KYC and anti-money laundering policies and procedures, and market participants are treated equally regardless of status, size or activity levels.
The rise of institutional trading of cryptocurrencies will be a game-changer for the industry. We believe our new exchange will support the transformation of the crypto market from the fringes to the mainstream. Digital currencies are, without a doubt, coming of age. Exchanges will play a crucial role in bringing the major cryptocurrencies into wider circulation, helping them to become accepted into conventional funds which in turn will help to support a normalization of value.
LMAX Digital is a global institutional digital exchange, using the LMAX Exchange trading technology and infrastructure. We offer fair, transparent, consistent and precise execution, along with proven technology, deep, robust liquidity, and global distribution.
Custodian solution
LMAX has designed digital custodian solutions driven by a tiered system of increasing security with the concept of Hot to Cold Wallets.
Hot Wallet clasps a few coins and is subject to withdrawal limits; it is directly connected to LMAX Digital exchange software for automated inward and outbound payments between counterparties. Whereas Cold Wallet comprises of the majority of coins; it would be completely offline but multi-signature wallet. Offline Hardware Security Modules/Multiple Eyes process is in place to protect withdrawals. Keys are stored on Hardware Security Modules in multiple geographically separate secure storage locations.
Most importantly, the Warm Wallet concept – that holds a minimum number of coins required for settlement between institutional counterparties and hot wallet top-ups; it is a multi-signature wallet. Offline Hardware Security Modules/Multiple Eyes process is in place to protect withdrawals.
