Crypto.com has gone live on Lynq, becoming the first exchange to support real-time, interest-bearing collateral funding through the Lynq network.
Several leading trading firms were first to use the integration, including Aquanow, DV Chain, GSR, Nonco, and Wintermute, all of which posted off-exchange collateral via Lynq on day one.

Streamlining Institutional Exchange Funding
Institutional digital asset markets have long faced challenges around fragmented liquidity, idle capital, and operational friction. By connecting Crypto.com Exchange directly to Lynq’s settlement layer, firms can move collateral faster, more transparently, and with greater capital efficiency — while earning yield during settlement.
Lynq now joins established USD funding options such as Fedwire, SWIFT, and CUBIX within Crypto.com’s institutional on- and off-ramp framework, expanding funding flexibility for active trading desks.
Early Adoption Highlights Demand
The firms participating at launch operate across multiple venues and jurisdictions, where delays in collateral movement can directly impact trading performance.
The ability to move funds on demand — without sacrificing yield — represents a meaningful upgrade over legacy processes.
Their early adoption signals growing demand for settlement infrastructure that prioritizes speed, transparency, and capital efficiency.

Infrastructure Built for Institutions
Lynq is a broker-dealer operated settlement network designed to minimize counterparty risk while delivering interest during settlement. Its “yield in transit” model allows capital to remain productive throughout the funding process.
Crypto.com’s live integration strengthens a growing network of institutional participants, including B2C2, Galaxy, FalconX, Fireblocks, and others — reinforcing the shift toward more efficient, real-time settlement in digital asset markets.
