OTCXN’s core competencies lie in building institutional-grade blockchain technology as well as exchange technology. “We are using these two core competencies to essentially change the way digital assets are traded starting with the FX markets and cryptocurrency markets.” The company is developing a total solution that includes a suite of real-time services, such as collateral management, liquidation risk management, counterparty risk and liquidity management, instantaneous clearing and settlement, and post-trade messaging. The solution caters to various market participants like the custodians who hold client assets and the trading entities. OTCXN provides trading entities with APIs as well as real-time web applications, with full trading capabilities that include blotters and tools for managing their collateral. All trading uses the industry standard FIX protocol without the need to adopt or integrate any new protocols or technologies.

“We basically change the way trading entities face each other financially; they can then trade FX bilaterally or multilaterally over existing ECNs and matching engines,” says Ingargiola.
Additionally, the company provides a software gateway to banks that facilitate tokenization and reservation of collateral for trading members, such as cash in the client’s bank account, without OTCXN holding or controlling the collateral. “Our trade-to-settlement solution is a completely new hybrid market model powered by our turn-key blockchain technology that allows trading entities to transact with each other easily in a decentralized manner with complete transparency,” says Drew Rasmussen, CTO of OTCXN.
Unlike other blockchain platforms that function within the boundaries of a single organization, OTCXN’s multi-dimensional blockchain architecture, which includes an inter-blockchain communication protocol to create a global virtual ledger, natively allows multiple organizations to work with each other seamlessly while guaranteeing the complete benefits of blockchain. Interestingly, the company’s technology can not only solve the biggest problem in the FX space by eliminating the need for prime broker credit lines to transact on the best prices, but it also supports cross-exchange clearing and settlement in the cryptocurrency space. Ingargiola believes that currently, the space lacks a way to secure the assets with a single trusted bank custodian while trading on liquidity found on any exchange; OTCXN can leverage its ground-breaking blockchain technology to fulfill that need. “This is the future of cryptocurrency trading, especially for institutions who need security, transparency and provable transaction history for their auditors and fund administrators.”
