Crypto Finance, a subsidiary of Deutsche Börse, has launched AnchorNote, a new digital asset custody and settlement system aimed at institutional users. Announced on September 16, AnchorNote integrates the BridgePort network to connect cryptocurrency exchanges with custodians, facilitating over-the-counter (OTC) settlement and real-time trading across multiple platforms. This system allows assets to remain in custody while providing immediate collateral liquidity, enhancing capital efficiency and reducing counterparty risk. Initially available in Switzerland, there are plans to expand the service across Europe.
