Regulated exchanges and custodians for digital assets and cryptocurrencies will continue to launch this year according to the top five predictions for the sector by GMEX Group, a set of companies that provide technology for new digital markets.
GMEX said in a report that traditional exchanges will seek to digitally transform and form partnerships due to growing interest in digital asset trading from both retail and institutional investors. In addition, traditional custodians will look to develop digital custody service offerings.
