🏦 Standard Chartered Becomes First Major Bank to Launch Spot BTC and ETH Trading #BTC #ETH #institutions #banks #StandardChartered #crypto 🇬🇧 The UK branch of Standard Chartered has officially launched regulated spot trading of Bitcoin and Ethereum for institutional clients — including asset managers, funds, and corporations. 📌 Why it matters: ⚫️ Standard Chartered is the first global bank to offer direct spot crypto trading — not just custody or OTC services ⚫️ Trades are executed through familiar FX-style interfaces, with settlement handled by custodians — including the bank’s own ⚫️ This allows institutions to buy BTC and ETH directly through a bank, without having to touch DeFi 🧠 The bank has been building crypto infrastructure for years: • Zodia Custody — institutional-grade custody platform • Zodia Markets — crypto brokerage for institutions • Libeara — asset tokenization platform
