FalconX, a digital asset prime brokerage, has partnered with Crypto.com and others for the launch of Lynq, a platform aimed at providing a settlement layer for digital asset and financial institutions. This partnership indicates growing institutional interest in crypto, particularly as regulatory clarity improves. FalconX will serve as both a participant and a liquidity provider on the Lynq network. Lynq, developed in collaboration with multiple firms, addresses regulatory frameworks and counterparty risk, which are crucial for institutions launching crypto products. The platform will not charge transaction fees, generating revenue through a small portion of interest from the portfolio. The stablecoin market, which has surged to $251.4 billion with a 55.5% increase in a year, exemplifies the potential for digital assets in settlement processes. Benefits such as reduced transaction costs and faster settlement times play a significant role in this growth. The platform is set for its final user acceptance testing soon, reflecting an encouraging shift towards the acceptance of digital assets by institutional players.
