Nexo has re-entered the United States market three years after its exit, launching a new suite of digital asset services built around the infrastructure support from U.S.-based Bakkt.

In a Monday announcement, the firm presented the move as a fresh start in a market it once left. This time it emphasized compliance, risk management, and long-term growth instead of aggressive product rollout.

Product Lineup Targets Yield and Liquidity

Nexo originally withdrew from the U.S. in 2022 after clashes with state and federal regulators over its Earn Interest Product. It described the negotiations at the time as a "dead end" and the operating environment as "impossible," following multiple enforcement actions, including those from California and New York.

The relaunched U.S. platform now runs through partnerships with regulated entities and uses Bakkt to provide its digital asset trading infrastructure, aligning the offering with institutional risk and compliance standards.

Nexo’s U.S. lineup includes fixed and flexible yield programs, an integrated crypto exchange, and crypto-backed credit lines aimed at users who want to access liquidity without selling their digital assets. The company also supports fiat on- and off-ramps via ACH and wire transfers and adds a loyalty program to keep users within its ecosystem.

Inside a Broader Global Expansion

Finance Magnates recently reported that Nexo had expanded its platform by introducing Contracts for Difference (CFDs) on assets such as gold, silver, oil, leading equity indices, and a range of key currency pairs, with leverage available on selected instruments.

This expansion was enabled through a partnership with MetaTrader 5, giving the crypto firm users access to advanced trading tools used by institutions.

Additionally, Nexo’s Dubai-based entity obtained the approval in the region to provide lending, borrowing, investment, and broker-dealer services for virtual assets. It marked the firm’s first step into Dubai’s growing crypto market

Besides geographical and product expansion, the crypto lender recently made strides in sports sponsorship deals. Audi Revolut F1 Team recently entered into a multi-year partnership with the platform, marking Nexo as the team’s first official digital asset partner.

    In this session, Jonathan Fine form Ultimate Group speaks with Dor Eligula from Bridgewise, a fast-growing AI-powered research and analytics firm supporting brokers and exchanges worldwide.

Dor shares where he sees “blue ocean” growth across Asian markets and how local client behaviour shapes demand. We also discuss the rollout of AI across investment research. Dor gives real examples of how automation and human judgment meet at Bridgewise — including moments when analysts corrected AI output, and times when AI prevented an error. We close with a practical question: how retail investors can actually use AI without falling into common traps.

    Executive Interview | Brendan Callan | CEO, TRADU | FMLS:25

    Brendan Callan joined us fresh off the Summit’s most anticipated debate: “Is Prop Trading Good for the Industry?” Brendan argued against the motion — and the audience voted him the winner. In this interview, Brendan explains the reasoning behind his position. He walks through the message he believes many firms avoid: that the current prop trading model is too dependent on fees, too loose on risk, and too confusing for retail audiences. We discuss why he thinks the model grew fast, why it may run into walls, and what he believes is needed for a cleaner, more responsible version of prop trading. This is Brendan at his frankest — sharp, grounded, and very clear about what changes are overdue.
