Blockchain.com launches 24/7 API trading for institutional crypto clients

The new service provides direct access to crypto liquidity with automated execution, flexible settlement and trading without prefunding for eligible clients. Blockchain.com launched an institutional API trading service on Thursday, giving clients 24/7 automated access to its crypto liquidity through a single interface. The service allows institutions to trade major cryptocurrencies, altcoins and stablecoins directly with Blockchain.com, using executable quotes with all costs included rather than routing orders across multiple trading venues. Eligible clients can execute trades without prefunding their accounts and select settlement schedules that match their operational requirements. The API also integrates with existing trading systems.
