Ripple's institutional prime brokerage service has officially integrated with EDX Markets, the digital asset exchange backed by Wall Street giants including Citadel, Fidelity, and Schwab. This integration is designed to provide institutional clients with a 'one-stop shop' for crypto trading. By linking with EDX, Ripple aims to leverage the exchange's institutional-grade infrastructure to enhance liquidity and build greater trust among professional investors.
This partnership comes as EDX Markets continues to gain traction in the institutional space, having recently reported significant trading volumes since its launch, distinguishing itself through a non-custodial model similar to traditional finance (Bloomberg).
