_[Crypto.com](http://Crypto.com)_ _has gone live on_ _**[Lynq,](https://lynq.network/)**_ _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](https://crypto.com/en/company-news/cryptocom-completes-integration-to-lynq)**, including **Aquanow, DV Chain, GSR, Nonco, and Wintermute**, all of which posted off-exchange collateral via **[Lynq](https://lynq.network/)** 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](http://Crypto.com)****[ Exchange](https://crypto.com/en)** 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](http://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.
