IPC, a leading global provider of secure, compliant communications and networking solutions for financial market participants, today announces several new cryptocurrency trading features available through the Connexus Cloud financial ecosystem powered by IPC’s partnership with ZOOZBIT, the blockchain-based cryptocurrency trading platform. IPC customers can now create their own cryptocurrency Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), affording Connexus Cloud users the ability to capture the value of a basket of cryptocurrencies without directly owning the underlying assets.
“Our partnership with ZOOZBIT continues to position IPC at the forefront of the growing digital currency market,” said Mike Smith, Director of Global Exchange Relations Management, IPC. “Now our customers can design and develop bespoke cryptocurrency ETFs, which offer an incredible way to capture the value of the increasingly diverse digital-asset market, without the need to own these assets directly.”
IPC customers can white label their cryptocurrency ETFs created over Connexus Cloud with ZOOZBIT, engendering new revenue streams based on any allocation model and strategy. Among the features available, IPC customers can use and set automated rules for their cryptocurrency ETFs, including for rebalancing, reissuing, algorithmic trading and price calculations.
ZOOZBIT’s and IPC’s proprietary end-to-end network affords institutional-grade speed and security, as the world’s top financial institutions already rely on IPC’s Connexus Cloud platform for trade execution, order routing, market data delivery, and accessing trade lifecycle services. Together with ZOOZBIT, the joint solution can be fully accessed by IPC’s community of over 6,400 global financial market participants.
“IPC and ZOOZBIT share a vision in building for our customers an ecosystem for institutional digital asset trading,” said Dror David, Founder and CEO, ZOOZBIT. “IPC’s global network of financial institutions want the same array of sophisticated tools for cryptocurrencies as any other asset class, and the launch of our platform for cryptocurrency ETF creation is an enormous leap in that direction.”
Moreover, ZOOZBIT functionality is also now available for testing via IPC’s Connexus Labs, a worldwide hosted infrastructure platform that seamlessly facilitates the design, development and deployment of customer- and partner-developed software projects and applications integrated with IPC products and services. IPC’s collaboration with ZOOZBIT is one of several cryptocurrency and blockchain initiatives the firm has undertaken in the past year to address growing customer interest in institutional-grade cryptocurrency surveillance and trading options.
