CatalX, a new Canadian digital asset trading platform, and Bittrex, the U.S.-based blockchain trading platform, today announced a partnership that will launch a digital asset trading platform with the most comprehensive selection of digital tokens in Canada.
This partnership provides a solution for Canadian customers who want more selection for digital assets, but on a secure, reliable platform.
The Beta platform will launch on August 27, 2018.

We are honored to be able to bring Bittrex’s extensive cryptocurrency options to the Canadian market with one of the highest brand reputations in the industry. We will offer more than 200 coin pairings with premium features as well as competitive fees. CatalX and Bittrex share common values based on strong business ethics, long-term vision, customer focus and an unswerving commitment to compliance and a willingness to work with government. We are collaborating closely with the Department of Finance and FINTRAC on the draft virtual currency regulation amendments to help provide a safe and secure environment for our customers and the entire community.”[/perfectpullquote]
Bittrex will be providing its unique platform technology and access to its large selection of utility tokens.

The integration of Bittrex technology by CatalX Exchange is similar to last year’s Bittrex partnership with Korean exchange UPbit.
