Institutional Institutional is a purpose-built platform for professional trading firms, hedge funds, market makers, family offices, and other institutional participants in the digital asset markets. The platform combines deep on-exchange liquidity, regulated custody, institutional lending, and dedicated relationship management into a single operating environment, so institutional teams can allocate, hedge, borrow, and settle across major digital assets with the workflow controls, reporting, and counterparty transparency their mandate requires.

Institutional Programs and Services

The Institutional Maker Program provides tiered fee structures and rebates for firms that commit to on-book liquidity provisioning across spot and derivatives markets. The Institutional Loan Program extends collateralized credit denominated in major digital assets so professional teams can finance inventory, fund market-making inventory, or execute delta-neutral strategies without unwinding positions. The ByCustody Institutional Loan pairs regulated segregated custody with structured lending, letting clients unlock working liquidity while beneficial ownership stays with the institution. Institutional Trading Rewards recognize sustained on-platform activity from qualifying counterparties, and dedicated onboarding covers Institutional Portal access, API keys, and settlement rails.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is eligible for Institutional Institutional services? Services are available to entities that qualify as institutional participants including regulated hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, market makers, family offices, over-the-counter desks, and corporate treasuries; qualifying entities complete an institutional onboarding review covering entity documentation, beneficial ownership, source of funds, trading profile, and jurisdictional compliance.

How does institutional onboarding work? Applicants are assigned a relationship manager who coordinates entity review, sub-account setup, API provisioning, credit sizing where applicable, and settlement configuration; timelines depend on jurisdiction and completeness of documentation. Can institutional clients integrate programmatically? Yes — the platform provides documented REST and WebSocket APIs for trading, custody, and reporting, and the onboarding review captures each client's integration path with institutional treasury, order management, and risk infrastructure.
