XBTO joins ex-Tether exec for a stablecoin clearinghouse
Earlier in February, crypto finance firm XBTO has teamed up with Phil Potter, previously an executive at Bitfinex and Tether, to launch a new venture allegedly offering a clearinghouse for stablecoins.
The initiative will act as a traditional central clearing counterparty to facilitate the stablecoins transactions through what they described as “a liquid market price and for a fixed minimal fee.”
Commenting on the new approval, the company said in a statement: “XBTO was one of the earliest Fintech companies to choose Bermuda as its domicile for its international operations and has been a welcomed proponent and evangelist for the regulatory clarity that Bermuda has developed with our regulatory framework.”
“We appreciate their collaboration, feedback and insights as we strive to deepen and diversify our footprint in the Fintech industry. We look forward to building upon our relationships with key players like XBTO as we continue to play a constructive role in the further development of this rapidly evolving industry,” added Premier David Burt.
