To support its rollout, EDXM is partnering with an integrated network of institutional players, including Virtu Financial, DV Chain, CoinRoutes, Hidden Road Partners, LTP, and Amber Group. These firms are contributing liquidity, prime brokerage services, and trading infrastructure, helping to meet growing demand for institutional-grade digital asset access across Asia and other global markets.
A standout feature of the platform is Smart Collateral Management (SCM), which allows liquidity providers to quote across multiple markets while minimizing capital usage. EDXM claims it is the first crypto venue to implement this type of system, positioning it as a pioneer in capital-efficient trading infrastructure.
According to Kal Chan, Managing Director at EDXM International, the launch is intended to resolve key barriers that have limited institutional participation in the crypto space, such as fragmented liquidity and high entry costs. He stated that the platform was built to reflect how institutions actually trade and aims to unlock deeper, more consistent market access.
Institutional partners welcomed the development with enthusiasm. Virtu Financial described it as a new benchmark in crypto liquidity, while DV Chain said it marks a meaningful step toward greater market maturity. CoinRoutes, LTP, Hidden Road, and Amber Group also backed the launch, highlighting gains in execution speed, transparency, and infrastructure reliability.
Meanwhile, Coinbase has also expanded its derivatives offerings by introducing perpetual futures trading in the United States. The exchange announced that eligible U.S. customers can now trade perpetual futures through Coinbase Financial Markets accounts.
