The platform offers perpetual futures contracts on 44 trading pairs, including bitcoin ( BTC), ethereum ( ETH), solana ( SOL), and XRP. It is backed by several financial institutions and venture capital firms.

In the announcement shared with Bitcoin.com News, EDXM stated its infrastructure is designed to minimize collateral requirements and improve trade execution using a proprietary matching engine.

The release noted that a key feature is Smart Collateral Management (SCM), which EDXM claims allows liquidity providers to quote on multiple markets efficiently without increasing venue risk. EDXM stated it is the first crypto venue to offer such a solution.

The exchange launches with an integrated network of liquidity providers, prime brokers, and order execution management system (OEMS) partners: Amber Group, CoinRoutes, DV Chain, Hidden Road Partners, LTP, and Virtu Financial. These partners, the release disclosed, are intended to provide liquidity and support platform efficiency.

EDXM Managing Director Kal Chan stated that the launch addresses barriers to institutional participation by reducing collateral needs and offering liquidity. “There is significant pent-up demand for digital assets in the region,” Chan said.

Partners highlighted the platform’s focus on institutional needs. Virtu Financial’s Brett Fairclough noted EDXM’s SCM “sets a new standard for capital efficiency in crypto.” LTP’s Jack Yang said the venue aligns with their mission for institutional-grade digital asset access. Hidden Road’s Michael Higgins called the launch “an advancement in market infrastructure.”

DV Chain’s Michael Herman termed it “a meaningful step forward in market maturity,” while CoinRoutes’ Ian Weisberger cited alignment on faster, cheaper execution. Amber Group’s Luke Li emphasized the platform’s “institutional-grade infrastructure.”

The launch reflects growing institutional demand for crypto derivatives, with EDXM positioning itself as a capital-efficient alternative to incumbent exchanges. Its success may hinge on sustained liquidity from partners and broader adoption among traditional financial firms entering digital asset markets.
