Devexperts, the provider of financial software for brokerages, exchanges, and wealth management firms, will be holding a free webinar to take brokers step by step on how to successfully launch crypto offering to retail investors.

– Established and startup cryptocurrency brokers and crypto exchanges
– Stock and Forex/CFD brokers
– Fintech and cryptocurrency projects
The webinar will explore the digital asset industry in-depth, from its origins to protocol differences, reliable data feeds, regulatory requirements, the proliferation of / or / industry occupation by MetaTrader, and security.
It will also be most interesting to understand the key differences between Crypto CFDs, Crypto Spot, and Crypto Perpetuals in terms of popularity, risk management, and profitability for brokers.
Brokers who wish to introduce a crypto offering should also be aware of forks and airdrops and how they impact trading and settlement on crypto offerings today.
Jon Light (Devexperts), Henry Price (GCEX), and John Willock (dxFeed) will be offering their insights. Nikolai Isayev (FinanceFeeds) will be moderating the discussion.
“During the webinar, I will explain to our viewers how the origins of the crypto exchange platforms left a footprint on today’s digital exchanges”, said Jon Light, VP of Trading Solutions at Devexperts. “This will help us recognise some of the nuances with adding crypto to your brokerage.”
“I specialise in crypto and digital assets at GCEX. Brokers must be aware of limitations and core requirements in order to provide the best liquidity sourcing and delivery possible”, said Henry Price, Quant & Digital Assets Specialist at GCEX. “Having begun my career in the crypto industry, I’d like to explain a few nuances of the market and asset class in general, how they differ from traditional markets, and how to capitalise on opportunities at an institutional and regulated level.”

The cryptocurrency market is estimated to be worth nearly $2 trillion and $120 billion exchanged in the last 24 hours, according to market cap. That is 6% in a day.
Volatility in digital assets is extremely high. Apart from stablecoins, the top 10 cryptos by market cap have seen their prices explode by up to 100% in the last month alone, exception made to Solana (SOL) which tripled its price since July 17.
As investors tend to flock toward volatile trading instruments, it is no wonder that crypto has grown so much in popularity among retail clients.
That becomes clear when analyzing the “Most Active Instruments” table on Investing.com, one of the most popular financial sites catering to retail traders. Bitcoin ranks #3, only below the EUR/USD and Gold.
Ethereum, Ripple’s XRP, and Dogecoin also rank pretty high in a list that includes Forex. Indices, Commodities, Stocks, Bonds, and ETFs.
