Collaboration to provide secure, regulated environment for insurance companies seeking short-term digital asset loans to move digital assets between customers.
CHICAGO, June 19, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Zero Hash, Seed CX’s digital asset and fiat currency custodian subsidiary, today announced that Digital Asset Redemption has agreed to utilize its settlement service to safely and securely settle short-term digital asset loans.
Zero Hash, which in March launched a suite of over-the-counter (OTC) trade settlement services for digital assets, is a FinCEN-regulated Money Service Business and FX Dealer, as well as a Money Transmitter in over 30 states.
Digital Asset Redemption (DAR) now allows its customers to settle their cryptocurrency transactions using Zero Hash's regulated platform.
“We’re excited to have DAR integrate with Zero Hash, to enable them to offer a secure and regulated ecosystem to settle their transactions,” said Brian Liston, Seed CX co-founder and President of Zero Hash. “Zero Hash has been built from the ground up to minimize the risk and operational overhead from post-trade settlement, which is perfectly suited for DAR’s business model.”
"We're thrilled to partner with Seed CX,” said Matt Leidlein, co-founder and Managing Partner at DAR. “Practical cybersecurity incident response today is fraught with legal and regulatory compliance issues. Digital Asset Redemption now offers institutional-grade solutions to businesses on the front lines of this modern battleground, allowing them to focus on limiting business interruption and loss."
Zero Hash custodies both fiat and digital assets, with on-chain settlement, and allows firms to widen the number of counterparties with whom they can trade, which streamlines reconciliation and reporting and enables frictionless settlement of transactions. Through its subsidiaries, Seed CX also offers a market for institutional trading and settlement of spot digital assets, and plans to offer a separate market for CFTC-regulated derivatives.
