Crypto Finance Launches AnchorNote for Institutional Digital Asset Trading

Crypto Finance, part of Deutsche Börse Group, introduced AnchorNote for institutional clients to trade digital assets while keeping them in regulated custody.
AnchorNote utilizes BridgePort, connecting crypto exchanges and custodians, facilitating off-exchange settlement and access to various trading platforms.
The system enhances capital efficiency and reduces counterparty risk by allowing real-time collateral movement without transferring assets out of custody.
Clients can set up dedicated trading lines with BridgePort managing inter-venue messaging and Crypto Finance as the collateral custodian.
Institutions have options to manage collateral via a dashboard or integrate the service into their systems using APIs.
Philipp E. Dettwiler highlights AnchorNote's role in balancing security and capital efficiency for institutional clients.
The setup provides traders immediate liquidity access across platforms without pre-funding exchanges.
Initially launching in Switzerland, there are plans for expansion throughout Europe.
