B2C2 growing trading volume with Fireblocks
Fireblocks , an institutional platform for storing, transferring, and issuing digital assets, announced that B2C2, the largest cryptocurrency liquidity provider and leader in electronic OTC trading, is employing Fireblocks to protect billions of dollars in digital asset value and provide security for more than 10,000 OTC trades daily.
Utilizing Fireblocks’ API, B2C2 now securely and instantly executes large value settlements with its institutional clients. B2C2 enlisted Fireblocks to add an efficient, digital asset security infrastructure to its best-in-class liquidity offering.
“Since implementing Fireblocks, we’ve had some of our best months in terms of increasing trading volume,” said Founder and CEO of B2C2, Max Boonen. “By connecting our back- and middle-office systems to Fireblocks’ API, we have multiplied our settlement throughput with an extremely lean team. That operational efficiency translates into tighter spreads and lower balance sheet consumption for both our clients and ourselves, contributing to a more efficient market.”

“We’ve smashed our bottleneck thanks to the security and speed we’ve been able to achieve with Fireblocks’ Secure Transfer Environment. Now, we want to remove all the credit congestion downstream for our clients as well,” said Robert Catalanello, CEO of B2C2 USA.
Onboarding customers into the Fireblocks ecosystem mitigates operational risks from the settlement process, including cyberattacks by hackers, internal fraud, and human error. B2C2 customers will receive a complimentary, pre-configured account with one network connection available (B2C2), as well as a wallet to withdraw funds after settlement.
“We’ve long been convinced that our defense-in-depth approach around wallet and settlement security directly improves operational flow,” said Michael Shaulov, CEO and Co-Founder of Fireblocks. “We are excited to support B2C2 with unlocking the capital constraints in the crypto market.”
