Interaktivni posredniki nameravajo do konca poletja ponuditi kripto trgovanje, pravi izvršni direktor

Po besedah ​​izvršnega direktorja Interactive Brokers vstopajo v kripto igro.

CNBC reported Wednesday morning that Thomas Peterffy, IB’s chairman and CEO, said during an event that “customers are certainly asking for [crypto trading] and we expect to be ready to offer it to them by the end of the summer.”

Ni jasno, do katerih kriptovalut bo IB ponudil dostop; kot ugotavlja novica, storitev svojim strankam omogoča dostop do CME-jeve ponudbe za terminske terminske pogodbe. V poročilu CNBC tudi ni bil določen določen datum.

Korak posredniške družbe v neposredno kripto trgovanje je opazen, glede na negativne komentarje Peterffyja pred nekaj leti.

Opazen je v Wall Street Journal objavil celostranski oglas, da bi opozoril na povezave med kriptovaluto in tradicionalnimi svetovi.

“I think bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are great ideas. They should be allowed to be traded freely and used freely to find their appropriate role in the economy,” povedal za CNBC v takratnem intervjuju. “What I am objecting to is linking bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies by federal regulations to the real economy, which would happen if we were to clear bitcoin along with other products in the same trading house.”
