New York based cryptocurrency exchange Gemini is taking new strides into institutional crypto investing. The exchange has partnered with institutional investor trading platform Omniex to allow better-investing solution for larger investors. The two have partnered and cross-connected with Equinix’s low-latency NY5 data center that targets electronic trading ecosystems and large financial organizations.
How Will the New Partnership Change Investment?With this new partnership, there will be better connectivity, more features and a high-performance trading experience that fulfills the needs of institutional investors. A high-performance trading experience has been one of the major let downs for larger investors in the crypto sector previously.
Omniex cofounder and CEO Hu Liang commented on the pain points of large investors:
“Fragmented and immature crypto market structure has left institutional investors at a loss for robust solutions, forcing some providers to resort to tweaking platforms engineered for other asset classes.”
He also said that cross-connecting to Gemini in NY5 would help in expanding the level of reliability and performance that Omniex clients need in executing their respective investment strategies.
Tyler Winklevoss, CEO of Gemini, also commented on the partnership:
“Omniex shares our core philosophy that technology must be purpose-built for institutional investors to address the regulatory and market challenges they face in crypto assets. He said that the Gemini ecosystem is maturing and it will be crucial to work with firms that understand institutional operations while working with the best-in-class technology that empowers investors.”
Omniex Understands Institutional InvestingLike other trading platforms, Gemini understands the importance of institutional investors in the cryptocurrency sector. Its partnership with Omniex is a strategic step to look more appealing to deep-pocketed investors who are looking for more robust infrastructure and better technology.
Omniex has developed an execution management system that is deployed in the NY5 data center of Equinix, as well as a cloud-based full-featured portfolio and order management system. Omniex is also connected to several large crypto liquidity venues, including over-the-counter market makers and leading exchanges across the globe.
Its technology, coupled with the regulated status of Gemini crypto exchange, could help in driving institutional traffic to the platform.
