Furthermore, the collaboration allows clients to take positions in the underlying OTC markets with a greater focus on Bitcoin, Ethereum, ‎Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ripple, Ethereum Classic, and Zcash versus multiple ‎fiat currencies.‎

Caspian—a joint venture between Tora and Kenetic— is a full-stack crypto trading and risk management platform which offers for both buy-side and sell-side traders a suite of trading algorithms and risk reporting tools. The company mainly targets professional traders with institutional-grade features like customizable market data.

The partnership will see Caspian bring additional trading and portfolio management functionality to London-based cryptocurrency liquidity provider’s customer base, with the possibility for further integrations in the future.

B2C2 is one of the largest OTC brokers/market makers in the crypto space and also ‎provides related liquidity services. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in ‎London, the privately held company advertises its offering as a solution that bridges ‎the gap between traditional financial and cryptocurrency markets.‎

“We’re delighted to be joining Caspian as they seek to increase institutional involvement in crypto trading. Many retail brokerage firms already trust us to provide liquidity for their crypto trades and we believe the multi-functional Caspian platform will appeal to these clients too,” said Max Boonen, Director and Co-Founder of B2C2.

Robert Dykes, CEO of Caspian, added: “B2C2 is one of the largest crypto market makers and it is therefore great to have them as a partner. Our goal is to build an ecosystem of partners that can help sophisticated traders to work effectively and efficiently, so we are very happy to have B2C2 adding to our offer.”
