Hong Kong-based Institutional Prime Broker LTP has partnered with British Fintech provider Gold-I to expand the distribution of cryptocurrency and Forex liquidity.
The partnership connects LTP’s liquidity pool to Gold-I’s MatrixNet platform. This, according to both companies, requires brokers, hedge funds, family offices and professional traders to access both the crypto and Forex markets through a single modified API connection.
LTP is expanding beyond Core Crypto Prime Brokerage Services to include traditional FX and CFD markets. The company currently offers unified market access through partnerships with bridge providers, including Gold-I and Onezero, allowing clients to trade central exchanges, decentralized venues, OTC markets and traditional Forex through one relationship.

“We’re looking forward to seeing you in the future,” said Jacques Yang, founder and CEO of LTP. “The connectivity of Gold-I helps to accelerate this process and provides secure and scalable access to institutional clients.”
This move reflects the growing institutional appetite for a seamless cross-asset trading infrastructure. Prime Brokers are adapting the technology stack to accommodate clients who want to trade both digital assets and traditional equipment without maintaining separate relationships and operational frameworks.
Earlier this year, LTP also introduced a commercial (OTC) trading platform aimed at institutional clients, offering a wide range of services designed to connect traditional finance with the digital asset market.
Technology platform enables multi-asset access
Gold-I’s MatrixNet platform serves as a gateway for LTP institutional clients, providing liquidity aggregation and routing capabilities across asset classes. The system offers integrated clearing and payments, reducing operational complexity for clients managing positions across the crypto and Forex markets.
Tom Higgins, founder and CEO of Gold-I
Gold-I founder and CEO Tom Higgins said the partnership reflects LTP’s “particularly impressive track record for Crypto,” saying Gold-I will “play an important role in supporting growth ambitions in both Crypto and FX.”
“cryptolithiness and FX liquidity are kind of things,” Higgins said in an interview with FinanceMagnates.com a year ago.
LTP’s infrastructure connects to both centralized and decentralized crypto exchanges, along with traditional FX liquidity pools. The platform provides facility-grade APIs, low latency connectivity, and support for algorithmic trading strategies across multiple asset types.
Prime Brokerage Market Integration
The collaboration highlights how Forex providers can add digital asset capabilities while Crypto-Native prime brokers are expanding into traditional markets. LTP operates in multiple licensed jurisdictions in Hong Kong, the British Virgin Islands, Spain and Australia, serving clients of global institutions.
LTP offers end-to-end prime services that include trade execution, liquidation, settlement, management and financing across digital assets. The company expanded its offering to include institutional asset management and regulatory OTC block transactions as the institutional adoption of the crypto market grew.
The partnership follows a similar move by other Crypto Prime Brokers seeking to offer multi-asset solutions as institutional clients increasingly see digital assets as part of a broader trading portfolio rather than inventive investments.
