ClearLoop enables institutional investors to trade across multiple exchanges.
It reduces costs by optimizing collateral management and bypassing blockchain settlements.
Kraken MTF, the UK's first Financial Conduct Authority
(FCA)-authorized crypto derivatives trading venue in Europe, has announced a
strategic partnership with Copper, a firm specializing in digital asset
custody, collateral management, and prime services. The collaboration aims to
offer off-venue settlement services tailored for institutional clients.
Multi-Exchange Connectivity
Mark Jennings, CEO of Kraken MTF, Source: LinkedIn
Institutional investors require robust multi-exchange
connectivity to mitigate risks, improve price discovery, and access liquidity
efficiently. Copper's ClearLoop solution facilitates this connectivity by
allowing clients to manage funds and trade virtual balances across exchanges,
with settlements conducted on Copper's infrastructure.
Through ClearLoop, institutional clients can now trade on
Kraken MTF, a venue known for its round-the-clock crypto derivatives trading
capabilities. This integration empowers institutions to manage risk effectively
and hedge positions in a derivatives market that operates continuously
throughout the year.
Mark Jennings, CEO of Kraken MTF, said: “For the past few
years, volumes in crypto derivatives have regularly exceeded those seen in the
spot market and institutions are driving most of this new activity. Key
infrastructure developments, like the Kraken MTF integration with ClearLoop,
will form the baseline as institutional engagement in this asset-class
continues to increase."
Boosting Efficiency for Institutional Investors
Kraken acquired Crypto Facilities in 2019, rebranding it as
Kraken MTF, which now serves as a key partner for institutions seeking exposure
to digital asset prices. As a multilateral trading facility, Kraken MTF meets
all regulatory and compliance standards required by institutional investors.
ClearLoop enhances capital efficiency for institutional
investors by enabling instant asset delegation, optimizing collateral
management, and simplifying operational workflows. Moreover, the direct
settlement on Copper’s infrastructure bypasses blockchain-level settlements and
associated network fees, offering cost savings to investors.
ClearLoop currently supports nine live exchanges, including
Kraken MTF, OKX, BYBIT, Deribit, BIT, Gate.io, BITFINEX, Bitget, and
PowerTrade, with plans to integrate Bitstamp and Bitmart in the near future.
Dmitry Tokarev, CEO at Copper.co commented, “Together, we
are shaping the future of financial market infrastructure by revolutionising
liquidity and security for institutional clients. Our shared vision is to build
a resilient and innovative ecosystem that sets new standards. Copper is excited
to embark on this transformative journey alongside the Kraken team.”

Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
At iFX Expo Dubai, Finance Magnates spoke with Razi Salih, CEO at Paytiko, about the evolution of the payments ecosystem and why payment orchestration has shifted from an option to a necessity for brokers, prop firms, and exchanges.
Mr. Salih explains how global expansion, the need for deep localisation, and the sheer number of new payment methods, from instant banking to stablecoins, are driving this critical infrastructure shift.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop
