PANews reported on October 22nd, according to CoinDesk. Deribit, the crypto derivatives exchange acquired by Coinbase earlier this year, announced that it is partnering with digital asset custodian Komainu to provide institutions with the ability to continuously trade without transferring assets out of custody. The agreement connects Deribit with Komainu Connect, a platform that manages collateral between trading venues and custodians. When trading on Deribit, institutional clients can keep their funds fully custodied within Komainu's regulated custody structure. This move aims to reduce counterparty and settlement risks, a long-standing concern among professional cryptocurrency traders.
