Crypto, Just Another Asset Class?
summary
TP ICAP enters crypto via CME Bitcoin Futures in 2019 and treats digital assets as tradable products while stressing concrete differences: 27-country, 5,300-employee broker with 15 regulated venues finds crypto offers T+2 to near-instant settlement that cuts counterparty risk, ICOs in 2017 demonstrate a new capital-formation method, and automated market makers show novel price discovery. The token is described as a primitive that can encode equities, bonds or commodities, and firms are building hybrid systems that so far show promising settlement and liquidity improvements.
