What we can execute
The desk trades as principal and as agent. Which route we recommend depends on the asset, the size relative to daily volume and how much urgency you have.
Spot block trades
Firm, risk-transfer pricing on single-ticket size in majors and liquid large caps. One price, one fill, no order-book footprint.
BTC, ETH, SOL, major L1s and L2s, top-100 tokens on request
Algorithmic execution
TWAP, VWAP and participation-rate schedules run across venues by the desk when a working order beats a single risk price.
Benchmarked against arrival price with post-trade TCA on request
Illiquid & long-tail tokens
Discreet accumulation or distribution in thinner names, including locked and vesting positions structured with counterparties.
Indicative levels within one business day
Derivatives & hedging
Forwards, options and structured collars to hedge treasury exposure or monetise a position without selling it outright.
Bilateral, documented under standard ISDA-style terms
Fiat & stablecoin conversion
Two-way conversion between USD, EUR and major stablecoins with banking rails matched to your jurisdiction.
USD / EUR wire, USDT, USDC
Treasury programmes
Recurring mandates for corporates and foundations: scheduled buys, runway sales and rebalancing under a standing instruction.
Daily, weekly or milestone-based schedules
Spread-based, quoted all-in.
One number covers the trade: no commission, no ticket charge, no platform subscription. Bands below are indicative for liquid assets in normal conditions; long-tail names and volatile sessions price wider.
| Tier | Ticket size | Indicative spread | Terms |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $100k – $2m | 20 – 45 bps | All-in quoted spread on majors. Same-day settlement, no ticket or platform fee. |
| Institutional | $2m – $10m | 10 – 25 bps | Dedicated trader coverage, RFQ over chat or voice, T+0 settlement both sides. |
| Block | $10m – $50m | 6 – 15 bps | Risk price or worked order. Optional staged settlement and pre-trade cost estimate. |
| Programme | Above $50m | Bespoke | Negotiated economics across a mandate, including algo execution and hedging overlays. |
Indicative only and not an offer to trade. Final pricing is confirmed at the point of quote and depends on asset, size, market conditions and settlement terms.
From onboarding to settlement.
