THE Infrastructure Project: Trading Technologies and Coinbase's GDAX Partner On Deal To Connect Cryptocurrencies To Institutions


Cryptocurrency trading moved further into the mainstream today with the announcement that Trading Technologies and the Global Digital Asset Exchange (GDAX), one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges, have partnered to offer the cash products on TT's platform.

This deal is potentially huge in the development for the newest asset class, cryptocurrencies, as it represents another major player in the derivatives space expanding the infrastructure for it. TT and GDAX, owned by Coinbase, will be offered to customers beginning in March.

With 19 of the top 20 futures commission merchants connected to TT, this will enable customers who already trade cryptocurrencies on GDAX to do so from the TT trading platform. It also helps build distribution channels to the institutional players in the market such as Tier One banks, brokers and buy-side players. Yes, they have access to GDAX now, but this certainly opens the door to new participants looking for a more conventional and robust way to access these markets from one trading screen and network.
