Vertex Protocol partners with Toa Capital Partners to provide deeper on-exchange liquidity
Vertex Protocol, a decentralized exchange for digital asset spot and derivatives trading, is pleased to announce it has partnered with Toa Capital Partners, a proprietary algorithmic trading firm.
This partnership will see Toa Capital engage with Vertex as a market maker to help provide deeper liquidity, tighter spreads, and an overall better user experience for traders of all types and sizes.
“Toa’s team has blue chip pedigree in traditional finance and is a perfect partner for us,” said Darius Tabatabai, co-founder at Vertex Protocol. “Their presence will only serve to bring further institutional quality rigor and trading to our users.”
Toa Capital has been involved in crypto since 2017 and offers high-value-added services, including liquidity provision, system design, and cutting-edge post-trade analytics. The firm leverages market-leading high frequency trading systems and the latest advancements in machine learning. These services enhance partners' trading capabilities and enable them to thrive in the emerging ecosystem.
“In just a few short months, Vertex has already proven to be a leading force in DeFi,” said Jake Moore, co-founder at Toa Capital Partners. “Their leadership has realized only the beginning of their vision for the future of trading, and we couldn’t be more delighted to join them on this journey.”
Vertex Protocol launched on Arbitrum in April and in just over three months has traded more than $3.8 billion in aggregate volume across both spot and perpetual futures trading, making it one of the fastest growing trading venues in all of digital and crypto assets. Vertex recently announced a strategic investment from proprietary trading firm Wintermute that will also see the market maker provide liquidity on the exchange.
Toa is also an active participant in the DeFi ecosystem supporting DeFi exchanges with validators, liquidators and technology expertise.
