Our take
D2X is hoping to become Europe’s first regulated derivatives exchange for the digital asset industry. This is no mean feat in a tightly regulated market. Binance dropped its EU version of this back in 2021 due to regulatory pressures, with around a dozen countries (including the US and the UK) warning of the need to get stricter authorisation to be permitted to operate.
To try and dodge Coinbase’s fate, D2X will be listing cash-settled derivatives denominated in Euros, which makes it less operationally risky and more regulation-compliant. Assisting D2X in this regard will also be their partnership with surveillance, risk & anti-money laundering technology provider, Scila.
We’ve reached a point where derivatives regularly account for the majority of trades in the crypto market. The problem is, they’re mostly traded on offshore and unregulated platforms like Binance, and tempting users off these platforms is no easy task. CME Group in the US, for example, is the only regulated marketplace to have gained any real traction - and its trading volume is dwarfed by Binance.
D2X proposes an ambitious and groundbreaking project, however, and it could truly revolutionise the European crypto trading scene, aided by recent funding that will facilitate expanding internationally and to new asset classes
