Business Wirea day ago
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Lynq, the real-time, interest-bearing settlement network for digital assets, today announced July 15, 2025, as its official go-live date. Lynq's launch follows more than a year of market research and collaboration with some of the world's leading digital asset firms, including B2C2, Crypto.com, FalconX, Fireblocks, Galaxy and Wintermute. In addition to onboarding at tZERO Securities, the special purpose broker dealer, and connecting to the platform via API, launch partners are helping accelerate adoption by referring key counterparties and integrating Lynq into their back-office workflows.
The Lynq platform sets a new standard by delivering institutional clients instantaneous settlement capabilities while providing them with a mechanism to continually accrue interest. The growing industry support and continued momentum ahead of the July 15th launch reinforce the importance of building independent real-time settlement infrastructure for the benefit of the entire digital asset ecosystem.
'The digital asset community has been searching for a settlement solution that solves the challenges of market fragmentation and counterparty risk,' said Jerald David, CEO of Lynq. 'With Lynq, we are delivering a scalable and settlement utility that reduces friction, unlocks liquidity, and enables institutions to operate with full transparency.'
Lynq was developed by Arca Labs, Tassat, and tZERO with the goal of creating a settlement platform that meets the industry's demand for liquidity, scale, and security while maximizing capital efficiency for all network participants. Lynq's innovative architecture leverages tZERO's Broker-Dealer and Special Purpose Broker-Dealer licenses, Arca's expertise in asset management, and Tassat's proven, real-time blockchain settlement platform.
'Digital asset markets are entering a new structural phase that will be defined by real-time settlement, regulatory clarity, and institutional-grade infrastructure,' said Katryna Hanush, Director of Business Development and Partnerships at Wintermute. 'Lynq's launch is a pivotal step forward in that direction. It combines the ability to earn interest during settlement with the security and trust of established financial partners. This is the type of solution the industry needs, and Wintermute is proud to support it.'
Lynq's service partners include Avalanche, which provides the open-source Layer one blockchain network, and U.S. Bank, which serves as Lynq's qualified cash custodian.

Crypto Market Maker Wintermute Snags Bitcoin Credit Line From Cantor Fitzgerald

Wintermute, a digital assets-focused market maker and OTC desk, has attained a bitcoin(BTC)-backed credit line from Cantor Fitzgerald, following similar financing deals announced last month with Maple Finance and FalconX. Cantor said the newly launched Bitcoin Financing Business is expected to provide up to $2 billion in financing during its initial rollout. The size of Wintermute's deal with the investment bank was not disclosed. The lending and borrowing of crypto was taking place on an industrial scale several years back, but many of the firms involved either incurred heavy losses or were forced into bankruptcy as contagion spread through the industry. But Cantor's debut perhaps signals a new and more institution-friendly phase. Wintermute is currently expanding its presence in the U.S., where a groundswell of movement is happening in crypto trading under Donald Trump's pro-innovation administration. Institutional demand for digital assets such as bitcoin, stablecoins, and select high beta altcoins continues to accelerate, driven by catalysts such as ETF developments and shifts in interest rate environments, said Wintermute CEO Evgeny Gaevoy. 'Given the capital intensive nature of our operations, especially OTC trading, which involves managing settlement windows and maintaining capital across multiple venues, the facility enhances our ability to hedge risks effectively across exchanges and maintain broad market coverage,' Gaevoy said in an email.
