Qurrex is designed to meet the challenges of the dramatic appreciation of cryptocurrencies resulting in increasing demand from brokers and institutional investors. The platform offers a novel decentralized solution to provide secure, high performance trading that will utilize knowledge which has been accumulated from the traditional and blockchain exchange platforms. Although the new trading terminal is currently being prepared for service and undergoing updates and expansion of its functionality, the broad public will be able to familiarize itself with the trading terminal and test it in March 2018.
Qurrex’s new generation platform integrates the industrial centralized infrastructure of traditional stock exchanges (CEX*) like NASDAQ, NYSE, LSE with a decentralized blockchain-based exchange (DEX*). The platform will substantially increase the market’s liquidity and set a new standard for crypto-exchange products.
