Diginex has launched its digital asset exchange EQUOS.io to provide a more efficient trading of digital assets for all market participants.
The EQUOS.io platform contains a fully functional digital asset exchange that offers cryptocurrency spot trading with perpetual swaps, dated futures, and other derivatives products.
EQUOS.io also provides interoperability with Diginex Access, the company’s over-the-counter trading platform, and Digivault, its custodian offering.
The launch precedes Diginex’s planned partnership with 8i Enterprises Acquisition Corp to offer opportunities to investors to participate in digital assets through public markets.
Diginex plans to expand EQUOS.io in the future to provide a platform for retail investors to access trading services.
Richard Byworth, CEO of Diginex, commented: “This is a pivotal moment for us to launch EQUOS.io ahead of our transaction with 8i Enterprises Acquisition Corp.”
“We are proud to deliver EQUOS.io, an exchange for virtual currencies and digital assets that challenges everything we have witnessed in the early growth of this industry. Our industry analysis has allowed us to understand the friction points for institutions to trade digital assets and address many of those with new and improved solutions around portfolio management.”
