Toronto fintech becomes dark pool partner
Toronto-based fintech DeFi Technologies Inc.’s over-the-counter trading subsidiary Stillman Digital has become a partner of GoDark, an institutional dark pool for digital assets like cryptocurrencies.
Dark pools are private, off-exchange trading venues where institutional investors can make large orders anonymously. Without published names, volumes and prices, it can make large trades without significantly affecting stock prices.
GoDark can trade perpetuals, future, options and other instruments. The platform says it has low latency matching, best price checks, a non-custodial settlement process and features like minimum fill sizes and conditional logic.
Other early partners in GoDark include Toronto’s FRNT Financial, London’s Fasanara Capital and Valos, Switzerland’s Capital Union Bank, Dubai’s Tyr Capital, Milan’s Hercle and Miami’s Trillion Digital.
