The next generation of digital asset liquidity begins today with the launch of Linq.

Linq is a digital asset liquidity network combining proprietary and public accessible markets to create robust, resilient, competitive, and effective liquidity solutions.

Linq was founded based on the principles of equitable, transparent, and efficient capital markets being the cornerstones of sustainable high liquidity markets. The principles behind Linq are derived from securities markets where these fundamentals are well established, and moderated by regulatory oversight that ensures maximum investor protections, and alignment of interests with the behaviours of market participants.

We strongly believe that the best path forward for digital assets is to follow those principles if not by regulation, then by self-determination for the benefit of the ecosystem.

In the recent past, decentralized finance (DeFi) applications have shown that elements of these principles can be built into a given financial service application by design; allowing for self-regulating activity for everyone’s benefit. We strongly support these developments, and will be investing in liquidity enablement in DeFi applications. We invite operators of those platforms to contact us.

Linq was created by two leading companies in the industry Tritum and Tokamak. Combined, their teams have decades of collective experience in the birth of electronic, high performance regulated securities markets, and cryptocurrency services from Bitcoin’s primordial days. Both groups have roots centered around data, market intelligence and insights to fundamentally drive understanding of, and actions in, the markets they trade.

Linq offers the provision of liquidity as a service for issuers, exchanges & other trading venues, and trades on a discretionary principle basis. We look forward to working with other industry stakeholders to improve digital asset markets and achieve attractive returns by adding value for all.

Please stay tuned to our website and social media for some exciting initial announcements which will catapult Linq’s participation to the forefront of the market.
