The parent company of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and one of the world's largest financial corporations Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) shared plans to develop a platform for the bitcoin trade. This is reported by Finance Magnates with reference to informed sources.
According to the available information, the new ICE tool will offer investors the opportunity to buy cryptocurrencies directly, and the calculations for bitcoin futures will be made in Fiat.
In addition, ICE will offer banks swap contracts, which will allow the client to receive the cryptographic currency acquired the next day, taking advantage of the guarantees of the exchange itself.
"Este paso permitirá a los inversores en los mercados tradicionales obtener acceso al activo digital en sí mismo, en lugar de su equivalente, y el intercambio no debe violar los requisitos de la Comisión de Futuros Exchange "
The details and timing of the next release have not yet been approved. However, if the Intercontinental Exchange initiative is implemented, it will allow access to bitcoin to a broad and influential customer base, says the source.
We note that the plans to support bitcoin by the US stock exchange. UU They were announced shortly after the release of information on the forthcoming launch of the cryptocurrency trading unit based at investment bank Goldman Sachs.
In early April, Nasdaq executive director Adena Fridman said she did not rule out the possibility of launching tools to operate cryptocurrencies on her site.
