WhiteBit , Europe’s largest crypto exchange by traffic, took part in LTP’s institutional digital asset summit Liquidity 2025 , held in Hong Kong on April 7, as a golden partner, and announced a suite of new institutional services. The event saw numerous asset managers, trading experts, regulators, and custodians discussing the growing convergence of traditional, centralized finance (CeFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) Sergii Bulgakov, who was in attendance, took to the stage in a panel discussing integration challenges, differences in trading infrastructure between CeFi and DeFi, and the potential of a hybrid model between the two paradigms. WhiteBit’s CCO summarized the exchange’s mission thusly: “Institutions play a crucial role in the maturation of the digital asset ecosystem, bridging the gap between traditional finance and the rapidly evolving crypto market. At WhiteBIT, we are committed to providing institutional investors with secure, innovative, and scalable solutions that empower them to navigate this transformation with confidence.” WhiteBit’s new institutional services — OTC trading, custody solutions, liquidity pools However, the exchange, which recently expanded into the Australian market , did not limit its action at the summit to lofty statements. WhiteBit also revealed upgrades to several key offerings, in a bid to position itself as a leading force at the intersection of institutional finance and digital assets.
