Altonomy launches OTC sell-side trading desk for cryptocurrency market

Altonomy, a cryptocurrency trading, advisory and asset management firm, today announced its official brand launch. Altonomy is a dedicated sell-side trading desk that provides institutional-grade liquidity solutions, OTC trading, advisory and asset management services for the crypto market.

The company counts more than 40 ICO project clients ranking in the top 200 by market cap like INS and Origo as well as some of the biggest crypto hedge funds in the world like Neo Global Capital (largest in Asia). Altonomy also works with other major global OTC trading partners to share liquidity, and is a key contributor to the trueDigital Bitcoin and Ether pricing indices, which provide the transparency and confidence needed to enable institutional-grade derivative products.

“Before founding Altonomy, we saw a huge need for a dedicated OTC sell-side trading desk in order to provide ICO issuers and crypto hedge funds more liquid trading options. Until now, there hasn’t been an independent, sell-side trading desk to provide effective crypto asset and liquidity management services. Altonomy fills this gap by consistently delivering the most favorable spreads in OTC markets given time and liquidity constraints for different token dynamics, even long-tail ones, in highly volatile markets.”

Altonomy seeks to empower clients with a number of unmatched benefits through its “Altonomy Hybrid IQ,” a combination of deep human crypto market expertise and proprietary algorithms that ensures OTC trades are executed in volatile markets with the best spread given time and liquidity constraints for different token dynamics, including:

• Premier Liquidity Management — Altonomy meets KPIs for exchange listings and liquidity management, even in extreme market conditions.
• High-Value OTC Trading — With 24/7 access to its global liquidity pool across Asia, Europe, and the U.S, Altonomy delivers transparent, OTC transaction services for crypto-to-fiat and crypto-to-crypto with extended coverage to illiquid tokens.
• Transparent Pricing — Transparent, all-in price quotes with free listing and exchange advisory services.
• Protection of Client Interests — Altonomy’s independent trade execution model helps protect the client’s best interests by aligning pricing with trading performance, and separating investment and trading practices.
• Proprietary Macro Market Analysis — Altonomy advises clients on the impact of sentiment and various events on the macro crypto market through proprietary analysis.

“Altonomy has helped us improve our portfolio management performance by directly executing trades while guaranteeing the protection of investor interests. Their OTC trading liquidity helps us to quickly get into or out of positions at a good price with assured professionalism and timely reporting. Altonomy always knows its boundaries and has been very careful to avoid any potential conflicts of interests. In such a bearish market with low liquidity, partnering with a trusted sell-side OTC trading desk has become a necessity.”

The company also recently launched the Altonomy Taurus Index Fund, a U.S.-registered and fully regulated private crypto index fund
