Trading and settlement

Off-exchange settlement

Off-exchange settlement lets institutions trade on venues without pre-funding them: assets stay in the institution's own custody until settlement is final, and no counterparty ever holds both legs of a trade. It removes the main source of counterparty exposure in digital asset trading.

How trading without pre-funding works

Assets are pledged in custody, trades execute against the pledge, and settlement transfers value only at finality, on-chain or in fiat. Exchange insolvency risk, the defining institutional fear of past market failures, is designed out.

Taurus-NETWORK provides off-exchange settlement and collateral management between institutions running Taurus-PROTECT, settling on-chain across 30+ blockchains or in fiat across EUR, USD, and CHF.

Off-exchange settlement, explained

Why does off-exchange settlement reduce counterparty risk?
Assets remain in the bank's own custody until settlement is final, so no venue or counterparty ever holds both legs of the trade, and there is no need to pre-fund exchanges before trading.
