Our take
Created by a team of finance veterans and blockchain engineers, Cboe Digital (formerly known as ErisX prior to the acquisition by Cboe Global Markets) is a regulated online trading platform that allows consumers to securely buy, sell, transfer, and store cryptocurrencies.
The platform provides both a futures exchange and a spot market that supports trading in Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, and Litecoin, while the company recently expanded its offering to include USD Coin.
The company is seen as one of the main players in crypto exchanges and aims to attract customers with an offering of security, transparency, and low execution fees. However, Cboe Digital will have to continue to provide attractive offerings as it has no shortage of competition, including the industry leader Coinbase, as well as Gemini, OSL, Kraken, CoinFLEX, and Bakkt.
