币界网报道：Goldman Sachs and Citadel Securities are among the investors backing a new digital asset exchange, EDX Markets, which aims to cater to institutional clients by offering crypto trading without direct custody of assets. The platform, set to launch later this year, will initially support Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash, focusing on compliance and leveraging existing market infrastructure to reduce regulatory risks. EDX CEO Jamil Nazarali emphasized the exchange’s non-custodial model as a key differentiator, avoiding the operational and legal challenges faced by custodial platforms like FTX. The initiative reflects growing institutional interest in crypto amid tightening regulations, with backing from major trading firms such as Virtu Financial and Sequoia Capital. The move signals Wall Street’s continued cautious but strategic expansion into digital assets.
