↑ 4%Clear Street expands into U.S. Crypto spot trading with institutional platform push. Published. April 13, 2026 Clear Street has launched expanded U.S. spot cryptocurrency execution through Clear Street Digital, allowing institutional clients to trade over-the-counter positions in digital assets such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, stablecoins, and other major tokens through the firm's existing multi-asset platform. The company said the offering is aimed at hedge funds, asset managers, crypto-focused funds, and corporates holding digital assets, and is designed to let them manage crypto exposure alongside equities, options, fixed income, and futures in one operating environment. Future additions are expected to include financing, derivatives, cross-asset margining, and API connectivity. The launch also builds on Clear Street's previously announced partnership with BitGo, which serves as its exclusive digital asset custodian and is expected to help integrate trading, custody, and wallet services into the broader platform. Ed Tilly, CEO of Clear Street, stated, "Expanding into digital assets is the most recent illustration of Clear Street's mission to provide sophisticated investors with access to every asset, in every market through our unified, purpose-built platform." He added that the move gives "clients a single, consistent experience through the entire trading lifecycle." Clear Street also named David Martin as Chief Revenue Officer of Clear Street Digital, adding an executive with nearly two decades of experience across fintech, investment management, and digital asset markets. Bob Rutherford, CEO of Clear Street Digital, noted, "Institutions want visibility and control across their entire portfolio, not disconnected systems for each asset class," adding that the firm's platform enables transparent trading, financing, and risk management across portfolios.

AndX, an AI-native Web3 financial platform, operates across multiple markets including the US, Turkey, UAE, India, Brazil and the Philippines. BitGo's CaaS offering enables partners to launch trading platforms without building core digital asset infrastructure in-house, providing configurable APIs and institutional-grade security controls.

At launch, the service supports USD1 and SoFiUSD, both backed by BitGo's Stablecoin-as-a-Service offering. The platform simplifies institutional workflows by eliminating the need to coordinate across multiple service providers and manual processes. Clients can access mint and redeem functionality whilst leveraging BitGo's regulated custody, policy controls and compliance infrastructure.

The company serves thousands of institutions and millions of investors worldwide through its digital asset infrastructure platform.
