StanChart-Backed Zodia and LMAX Digital to Provide CoinShares With #prizmabet Crypto Trading Infrastructure

LMAX Digital and Zodia Custody are to provide institutional-grade trading infrastructure and custody to CoinShares.

A trio of European cryptocurrency firms are teaming up to bolster their digital asset trading offering to institutions.

Crypto exchange LMAX Digital and Standard Chartered-backed custodian Zodia Custody are to provide institutional-grade trading infrastructure and custody to digital asset manager CoinShares (CS.ST), according to an emailed announcement on Wednesday.

CoinShares will make use of LMAX’s trading capabilities and Zodia’s Interchange product, which allows clients to keep their assets on its platform, while their holdings are mirrored and available on an exchange for trading.

The three firms’ aim is to offer institutional adopters with the trading infrastructure, security and governance that they would expect in the traditional finance world, thereby assuaging concerns about the digital asset industry heightened by the events of the past year.

“This joint effort with Zodia Custody and LMAX Digital is aligned with our long-term strategy,” CoinShares CEO Jean-Marie Mognetti said. “We are committed to shape a reference standard for digital asset management.”

Ripple Buys Crypto Custody Firm Metaco for $250M #prizmabet

Metaco will continue to operate as an independent business unit led by CEO and founder Adrien Treccani.

Blockchain firm Ripple has acquired Swiss-based crypto custody provider Metaco for $250 million, the company said in a statement on Wednesday.

The purchase will allow Ripple to expand its offerings by incorporating the technology to custody, issue, and settle tokenized assets. Metaco offers customers crucial and secure custody infrastructure, allowing institutions to scale new business models in the crypto economy.

Diversifying into custody solutions will bring new revenue opportunities, Ripple said, adding that the acquisition is part of its strategy to broaden its presence beyond the U.S and its uncertain regulatory landscape.

In 2020, Ripple and some of its executives faced a lawsuit from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regarding the unregistered sale of approximately $1.3 billion worth of XRP tokens.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse recently estimated that the legal battle will cost the company around $200 million, while also cautioning crypto entrepreneurs against establishing their businesses in the U.S. While the judge residing on the Ripple lawsuit, said on Tuesday that the regulator cannot seal documents tied to former official William Hinman’s 2018 speech on crypto and securities.

According to a company spokesperson, the acquisition was financed through a combination of cash and Ripple equity.

“Metaco is a proven leader in institutional digital asset custody with an exceptional executive branch and a truly unmatched customer track record,” said Brad Garlinghouse, CEO of Ripple.

Ripple will become the sole shareholder of Metaco, which will continue to operate as an independent business unit led by its founder and CEO Adrien Treccani.

Blockchain-based play-to-earn project Axie Infinity’s native cryptocurrency AXS ralliedafter the company’s card-based strategy game debuted on the Apple app store. AXS surged over 12% from $7.16 to $8.04 on the news, becoming the top gainer on CoinDesk Indices’ leaderboard. The game will initially launch in the Apple store across Latin America and Asia. Bitcoin traded down on Wednesday, struggling to hold the $27,000 mark as investors keep a close eye on developments around raising of the debt ceiling in the U.S. The world’s largest cryptocurrency by market value has lost 9% over the past month.

Crypto companies fleeing U.S. regulatory uncertainty have been offered a welcome in France, by officials boasting a regulatory framework that offers relative predictability. The European Union member already boasts around 74 registered crypto companies. “In France, we are proud to be pioneers,” said Benoît de Juvigny, Secretary General of the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF), noting his country’s crypto service asset provider regime – known as PSAN – was passed in 2019, “If American players want to benefit, in the very short term, from the French regime, and from the start of 2025 from European arrangements, clearly they are welcome,” he added. “We have good relations and discussions with our U.S. counterparts.”

Using distributed ledger technology (DLT) in securities markets could create savings north of $100 billion per year, a report produced by a major traditional-finance lobby group has said. In a paper published Tuesday evening, the Global Financial Markets Association (GFMA) called for regulators to allow the technology that underpins crypto to aid collateral management, asset tokenization and sovereign bond markets.“ Distributed ledger technology holds promise for driving growth and innovation,” said Adam Farkas, Chief Executive of GFMA, whose affiliates in the U.S., Europe and Asia count major players such as JPMorgan Chase, HSBC and Nomura among their members.

DeFi Must Get Easier to Use to Win Over Retail Customers, Uniswap Survey Finds #prizmabet

Many respondents said they are put off by the complexity and cost of on-chain trading.

The many pains of using decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols may be stopping occasional crypto users from experimenting with on-chain services, according to a survey conducted by Uniswap Labs.

In a poll of 1,860 “U.S. retail users,” the company supporting the popular DeFi token trading platform called Uniswap found that many respondents are put off by the complexity and cost of on-chain trading.

The survey indicates permissionless DeFi trading still has a ways to go if it is to succeed in mass adoption. In order to trade on a service such as Uniswap, crypto users must have a wallet, sufficient ether (ETH) to execute and a willingness to pay sometimes-exorbitant gas fees. And that’s if they understand what they’re doing to begin with.

There’s only so much a DeFi service can do about easing fees and self-custody, though. Uniswap Labs said it conducted the survey to get a better understanding of its customers and is committed to increasing educational resources that target these people who currently use centralized services.

“The entire industry now must work to help educate users about how to use DeFi and the benefits of self-custody. These resources can have a measurable impact in helping users build their knowledge base and grow their confidence,” Uniswap Labs wrote in a blog post.

Fahrenheit Consortium Is Lead Bidder in Bankruptcy Auction for Celsius Assets #prizmabet

The assets include a loan portfolio, mining rigs and infrastrsucture and cryptocurrency worth as much as $2 billion.

A consortium named Fahrenheit, which includes venture capital firm Arrington Capital and miner U.S. Bitcoin Corp, is the lead bidder in the auction for bankrupt lender Celsius’s $2 billion of assets, according to a Wednesday hearing.

NovaWulf, an investment firm which was founded by the duo behind bitcoin miner TeraWulf (WULF), was the original bidder, known as the stalking horse, which set base terms for the auction. The process could be wrapped up as soon as this week.

The assets include Celsius’s mining unit, its loan portfolio, staked cryptocurrency, and other alternative investments, according to court filings.

Fahrneheit is backed by Arrington Capital, U.S. Veri Mining Group, Inc. (known as U.S. Bitcoin Corp.), investment firm Proof Group Capital Management, former Algogrand CEO Steven Kokinos, and investment banker Ravi Kaza. It is formalized as a limited liability company.

Coinbase (COIN) is also involved in the bid, said Michael Arrington, founder of the synonymus VC firm, in a now-deleted tweet reported by Fortune. Arrington is also the founder of tech media site TechCrunch and information platform Crunchbase.

The two bids share similarities. Crucially, Fahrenheit plans to issue equity for the assets that will be managed under the new company, whereas Novawulf planned to tokenize the shares on the Providence blockchain.

“Our bid not structured as a simple asset purchase. We are proposing that the assets be placed into a new company and is run with the sole goal of growing those assets to make stakeholders whole,” Arrington said in a tweet announcing the Fahrenheit project.

Another bid was made by another consortium which includes Van Eck Absolute Return Advisers Corporation, decentralized finance firm Küresel X Digital and Gemini Trust Company.

Judge Martin Glenn expressed concerns that the process might hit a “regulatory roadblock” and compared it to Voyager, another crypto firm that went bankrupt last year. The Celsius kanunî team sought to reassure the judge, citing ongoing discussions with regulatory authorities.

A sale of $1 billion of Voyager’s assets to Binance was abruptly terminated following pushback from regulators.

Proof Group’s Managing Director Noah Jessop has also invested in bankrupt bitcoin miner Core Scientific (CORZ), according to his Twitter bio, which is both in its own Chapter 11 bankruptcy and in a dispute with Celsius.

Crypto Perpetuals Exchange DYdX Considering the Launch of More SubDAOs #prizmabet

The conversation was initiated to promote more decentralization within the dYdX ecosystem ahead of its v4 upgrade.

DYdX, the decentralized platform known for its perpetuals contracts, is now discussing the creation of more subDAOs to make management of the ecosystem even more decentralized.

A post from Fox Labs Digital, an Australian-based marketing agency, suggested divvying up oversight responsibilities to several smaller decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs).

The discussion of going beyond the current two current subDAOS – one for dYdX’s grants program and the other for its operational activities – comes as the dYdX community is preparing to upgrade on the Cosmos blockchain to its fourth version (v4). The goal is to make dYdX “a fully decentralized version of the protocol,” according to a blog post.

Moreover, according to a different governance post by the dYdX Foundation, an independent not-for-profit organization aimed at fostering decentralized governance, the operations subDAO is set to expire on June 19. With the imminent launch of v4 and the expiration of its operations subDAO, the “dYdX ecosystem is approaching a critical juncture,” the foundation said.

Fox Labs in the governance post said, “This is not just about shaping the future of dYdX but also about building a model for how a decentralized trading platform can operate effectively and inclusively.”

SubDAOs are groups of contributors within the dYdX DAO “that each work on core functional areas of the dYdX protocol and are ultimately accountable to the dYdX community,” per the dYdX Foundation.

Coinbase Prime, #prizmabet Talos Team Up to Meet Rising Institutional Crypto Trading Demand

The agreement offers Talos clients connectivity to Coinbase Prime for spot liquidity and custody services.

Talos, a crypto trading platform for institutional investors, is working with Coinbase Prime to expand access to digital assets for customers of both firms.

With rising demand from institutional investors for more secure and efficient trading platforms, the agreement offers Talos clients access to Coinbase Prime for spot liquidity and custody services, according to a press release. Coinbase Prime, which is typically used by institutional investors, is an integrated system that offers users offline storage and advanced trading.

The pact will also give Coinbase Prime clients access to Talos’s trading and connectivity products, according to the press release.

With institutional investors pushing further into crypto, demand for more sophisticated means of trading, investing and managing the digital asset has ramped up. Last week financial institutions T. Rowe Price, WisdomTree and Wellington Management joined layer 1 blockchain Avalanche’s Evergreen subnet to make execution and settlements more efficient. Last month, Nasdaq said it is aiming to debut its crypto custody services by the end of the second quarter.

“We’ve seen consistently growing demand, despite recent market conditions, for high-performance digital asset trading platforms as institutional investors continue to build for long-term participation in this emerging asset class,” Anton Katz, co-founder of Talos, told CoinDesk in an interview.

Katz added that unlike retail investors, institutional firms entering the space require trading platforms with a much higher standard for safety and reliability along with more efficient means of trading that matches what they’re accustomed to in the traditional financial (TradFi) world.

Talos raised $105 million in a Series B funding round last May that included investments from U.S. financial services giants Citigroup (C), Wells Fargo (WFC) and BNY Mellon (BK). The crypto trading platform offers institutional investors a “full trade lifecycle” which includes liquidity aggregation, trading, analytics and settlement through a single point of access, according to the statement.

Galaxy Digital to Develop ETPs Alongside Asset Manager DWS #prizmabet

The two firms have formed a “strategic alliance, of which the ETP development is the initial aim.

Crypto-focused financial services firm Galaxy Digital (GLXY) has teamed up with asset manager DWS to develop a set of exchange-traded products (ETPs) for listing in Europe.

The two firms have formed a “strategic alliance,” according to an announcement on Wednesday, of which the ETP development is the initial aim.

The ETPs will give European investors cost-effective means of accessing digital asset investment through traditional brokerage accounts. Frankfurt-based DWS, which has 821 billion euros ($907 billion) in assets under management, will be Galaxy’s “exclusive ally” for crypto ETPs in Europe, the announcement said.

Galaxy has previously listed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in Canada alongside CI Küresel Asset Management.

While the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)’s repeated rejection of applications to list spot bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. has been a source of ongoing frustration in the industry, similar products are now well established in Europe and Canada.

The significance of such investment vehicles lies in their providing institutional investors with an entry point to crypto investment while not requiring them to take direct control of the underlying assets, which could prove an impediment to adoption for such firms.

Arbitrum Airdrops #prizmabet $120M to Projects; Some Dump, Some Look to Bolster Themselves

Not everyone is aiming for community growth and market capture with the ARB stimulus.

Ethereum scaling blockchain Arbitrum on Tuesday completed the distribution of more than $120 million worth of its arb (ARB) tokens to projects that were built on the network, blockchain data shows.

In March, Arbitrum issued and airdropped its tokens to individual users in amounts ranging from 625 arb to over 10,000 arb, based on their network activity and number of wallets.

Airdrops occur when crypto projects send free tokens to their communities in a bid to encourage adoption. Crypto users who frequently interact with new and existing platforms are likely to receive an airdrop at some point. That has spurred the narrative of “airdrop farming” because large airdrops can be valued at thousands of dollars in effectively free money at peak.

Projects that built on the Arbitrum network, such as perpetual trading protocol GMX and token launchpad Camelot, were eligible for the airdrop, receiving tokens in proportion to the number of smart contract deployments, users and trading volumes, among other factors.

For some, like Vesta Finance, the airdrop provided a multimillion-dollar stimulus: The project was eligible for 2.7 million arb tokens, worth just under $6 million, despite holding only $3 million in its treasury. This can allow the project to, over time, sell the tokens to bolster its own development or even provide token incentives to users to further jumpstart activity.

Projects such as yield rewards-focused PlutusDAO said they will use their airdrop allocation in “multiple ways to make the project stronger,” without revealing specifics.

Other projects decided to sell as soon as they received the tokens, however. Gaming-focused TridentDAO sold $175,000 worth of arb, or half the amount it received, through three addresses. The move invited criticism from the community for its action.

On-chain data compiled by Lookonchain shows some 90 million ARB tokens – about $120 million at current prices – were sent to over 131 decentralized autonomous organizations, or DAOs. NFT marketplace TreasureDAO and GMX received the most at 8 million arb, or $12 million.

Decentralized Exchange Vertex Launches on Ethereum Layer 2 Arbitrum #prizmabet

The platform offers another venue to trade digital assets.

Vertex, a decentralized exchange (DEX) for the spot and derivatives trading of digital assets, has gone live on Arbitrum (ARB), a popular network built atop the Ethereum blockchain.

Vertex, which had been operating on a test network, combines an off-chain order book layered on top of an on-chain automated market maker on a decentralized, self-custodial exchange. The firm, which has bases in Singapore and the Cayman Islands, counts Jane Street, Dexterity Capital, Hudson River Trading, GSR, Collab+Currency, JST Capital, Big Brain and Lunatic Capital among its early backers.

The messy collapse of FTX and other centralized trading platform blowups last year has fueled a shift toward decentralized exchanges and self-custody. Ethereum layer 2 system Arbitrum is now the fastest-growing blockchain in total value locked and has surpassed Ethereum in daily transaction volume.

The Vertex team has been working on the protocol for about a year. Co-founder Darius Tabatabai said the platform has drawn interest from institutional traders and from retail traders who use Arbitrum.

“We built all the smart contracting ourselves, so we’re not forking anything,” Tabatabai said in an interview with CoinDesk. “The [automated market maker] is quite conventional, but we have a bunch of tech under the surface that enables you to do leveraged AMMs, to do looping, and we have an inbuilt money market. So you can think of it as a combination of Aave, dYdX and Uniswap, with an order book.”

Building Vertex on Arbitrum and using an off-chain sequencer for the order book has enabled the venue to process between 10,000 and 15,000 transactions per second with the ability to match orders in 10 to 30 milliseconds, a speed that rivals leading centralized venues and surpasses that on other decentralized exchanges, Tabatabai added.
