LONDON, Aug. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Blockchain.com, a global provider of crypto services for retail and institutional users, has joined TP ICAP’s Fusion Digital Assets as a liquidity partner operating within the venue’s matched principal framework.

The move comes amid rising demand from a broad range of digital asset firms, including brokers, liquidity providers, asset managers and trading firms, for institutional-grade market infrastructure. As one of the first firms to trade through Fusion Digital Assets’ matched principal model, Blockchain.com adds further breadth and depth to the venue’s institutional ecosystem.

By integrating Blockchain.com’s institutional liquidity, market participants gain additional depth in Bitcoin, Ether and XRP. The partnership also reflects the continued convergence of digital asset markets and traditional finance, as established crypto-native firms seek broader distribution and access to trusted institutional trading venues. As the digital asset industry matures, Blockchain.com’s addition expands the participant base on Fusion Digital Assets and supports the development of new products, including stablecoins and tokenised assets.

Fusion Digital Assets recently launched its matched principal trading model, which TP ICAP says underscores its ongoing commitment to digital assets and product innovation across market cycles. The model allows participants to trade without prefunding while facing TP ICAP as an investment-grade credit intermediary. TP ICAP says this improves capital efficiency, reduces operational complexity and brings digital asset trading closer to traditional market standards. As market participants place greater emphasis on counterparty strength and trusted market infrastructure, the model is intended to provide a framework for institutional digital asset trading.

“Joining Fusion Digital Assets as a liquidity partner under TP ICAP’s matched principal framework is a natural progression in our mission to bring institutional capital to digital asset markets,” said Marc Sischka, Vice President, Global Head of OTC Trading. “Together we are delivering the capital efficiency, execution quality, and operational reliability institutional participants require to trade at scale.”

“We are pleased to welcome Blockchain.com as a liquidity provider on Fusion Digital Assets,” said Chay Pollard, Director Digital Assets E-Broking. “Their global reach, crypto-native client network and deep digital asset liquidity complement TP ICAP’s institutional client base and market infrastructure. Together, we are broadening access to trusted, institutional-grade liquidity while further strengthening the bridge between traditional finance and digital assets.”

Building on the matched principal launch, Fusion Digital Assets says the new model will allow it to expand its tradable asset universe, including support for stablecoins such as USDC, expansion of cryptoasset coverage to include SOL, additional fiat currency pairs, and future support for tokenised real-world assets (RWAs).

In response to institutional demand, operating hours will extend to continuous weekday trading, with weekend coverage to follow.

The development follows a record 2025 for Fusion Digital Assets, when the venue surpassed $1 billion in monthly notional traded volume across its Bitcoin and Ether order books. TP ICAP said the milestone reflected growing institutional demand for secure, reliable and purpose-built digital asset market infrastructure.
