Traditional megabanks are finally getting on board, and now institutions have the backing of the formal military. The good days for retail investors are coming [rocket launch feeling]
Once bank-affiliated primary brokers land, liquidity and credit endorsement go through the roof. This is loading the booster rockets for the next launch wave.
Just in the early planning phase and there's already so much action. When it officially goes live, the index could break through the atmosphere directly.
Standard Chartered played this move brilliantly. With the Zodia ecosystem already laid out, now they're setting themselves as the hub. The entrance battle for institutional crypto trading has begun.
But SC Ventures choosing to stay silent is interesting. There's definitely still talks about regulation behind the scenes. Don't get too optimistic.
Traditional finance and the on-chain world are finally about to truly merge. Should we get a dopamine hit?
傳統銀行加速入局：渣打要建加密主經紀商業務
【比推】大型銀行在數字資產領域的動作越來越頻繁了。根據最新信息，倫敦總部的渣打銀行正在籌劃一個專門處理加密貨幣交易的主經紀商部門。
知情人士透露，這項業務將在渣打的全資VC部門SC Ventures旗下運營。不過目前還在早期規劃階段，具體推出時間還沒定下來。
說起渣打在數字資產上的布局，其實他們一直走在傳統銀行的前列。去年7月就已經宣布成為首家為機構客戶提供現貨加密幣交易的全球系統重要性銀行。而且還投資了一些重量級項目——比如加密資產托管服務商Zodia Custody和機構級交易平台Zodia Markets。
SC Ventures這邊對媒體的詢問選擇了不回應。但值得注意的是，去年12月他們在領英上發過一個動態，提到在開發一個叫Project37C的數字資產合資項目。官方的描述是一個輕型融資與市場平台。根據介紹，這個合資公司會提供托管、代幣化和市場接入等服務。不過那會兒還沒透露外部合作夥伴或明確說是主經紀商的角色。
這背後反映的其實很清楚——越來越多的傳統金融機構開始把數字資產當成必須要參與的賽道了。
