Hyphe, Tangany and Trever collaborate on all-in-one digital assets solution, Launchpad

MUNICH & GRAZ, February 27, 2024 - Hyphe, Trever, and Tangany a trio of digital asset service and technology providers, have created Launchpad, an out-of-the-box trading, custody, order and treasury management solution enabling financial institutions to quickly launch their own products and services in this important new asset class. Hyphe’s German subsidiary, Hyphe Markets GmbH, which is licensed by the country’s financial regulator, Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht (BaFin), will handle liquidity provision and trading, while Austria- headquartered Trever will cover order and treasury management, and customer bookkeeping, combining forces to make digital asset provision simple, seamless, and safe. Munich-based fintech, Tangany, also BaFin-licensed, will act as custodian.

Financial institutions keen to launch a new digital asset product or service face various challenges likely to slow down the process. Trading, custody and order and treasury management require distinct skill sets. Selecting the right vendors, onboarding and integrating them, and then managing the suite operationally can strain internal resources and impact time- to-market —all important in a rapidly-maturing sector.

Launchpad provides a simple, safe, and seamless solution, enabling institutions to quickly roll out their own digital asset products and services. The Launchpad partnership covers each essential part of the operating model, boosting efficiency of set-up via a single tech integration with Trever, but also delivering rapid scalability in a growing market. Each partner will maintain their regular solutions based on individual requirements, complemented by Launchpad, a convenient and efficient product designed for clients in need of a ready-to-go solution.

To ensure a banking-grade experience, liquidity provision and custody are BaFin-supervised, so the entire solution is already compatible with the EU’s upcoming Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation (MiCAR).

Dolf Diederichsen, CEO of Hyphe: “We’re excited to announce Launchpad, a solution which gets institutional trading up and running quickly. By taking care of the difficulty via partnership, we can offer banks, brokers and asset managers a scalable solution in one third of the time, which is essential in a world where digital assets are gaining more ground with investors by the day.”

Martin Kreitmair, CEO Tangany: “Custody is a major hurdle for institutions looking to offer digital asset trading. They have legitimate concerns around secure storage and management, and need solutions that can meet their standards. Our role in the Launchpad partnership is to exceed those expectations by delivering banking-grade safety and security, alongside super- efficient trading and settlement integration behind-the-scenes.”

Hans-Jürgen Griesbacher, CEO Trever: “Financial institutions require a management system that addresses all banking-relevant operational needs. Trever’s role is to provide such a system for order and treasury management, as well as bookkeeping with the integration of the trading venue and the custodian. The client benefits from a centralised internal system that covers the full digital asset lifecycle.”
