OTC execution

Execution of larger crypto-asset trades by request for quote. You tell the desk what you want to buy or sell; we return a firm, time-limited quote; the trade is executed only when you accept it.

Crypto–fiat conversion

Conversion between supported crypto-assets and fiat currency, for example to fund treasury needs or to realise crypto-asset holdings into a bank account.

Settlement

Settlement of fiat to bank accounts, and of crypto-assets to wallet addresses, that have been verified in your name (or your organisation's name) during onboarding.
