Digital Asset Platform GCEX Bolsters Institutional Infrastructure with Fireblocks Integration

Digital assets and foreign exchange solutions provider GCEX has integrated Fireblocks' enterprise platform into its infrastructure, expanding custody and security options for institutional clients trading through its Danish and Dubai operations.

The integration gives GCEX's institutional clients access to Fireblocks' Policy Engine and compliance toolkit, whilst connecting them to the Fireblocks Network - a digital asset network that facilitates trading relationships with over 2,000 liquidity partners and counterparties.

Speaking about the development, GCEX CEO, Lars Holst said: "By integrating Fireblocks' world-leading technology, GCEX is reinforcing our commitment to providing institutional clients with a streamlined trading experience and the most secure, efficient and transparent trading environment in the digital asset space. As institutional adoption of digital securities accelerates and we continue to scale, Fireblocks' multi-layer security protocols, regulatory toolkit and streamlined processes will support GCEX's operations, underpinning our focus on ease of trading and asset protection."

The partnership strengthens GCEX's institutional offering, which includes CFDs on digital assets and FX, alongside spot trading and digital asset conversion services. The company also provides technology solutions through its XplorDigital suite, featuring 'Crypto in a Box' and 'Broker in a Box' offerings that combine regulatory compliance with custody solutions and liquidity access.

GCEX, founded in 2018 and headquartered in London, operates under multiple regulatory frameworks. The company is registered with the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority as a Virtual Asset Service Provider and currency exchange, holds a VASP licence from Dubai's Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority, and is regulated by the UK's Financial Conduct Authority.

The move comes as institutional demand for digital asset trading infrastructure continues to grow, with custody and security remaining key considerations for professional investors entering the space. Fireblocks has emerged as a significant player in the institutional digital asset technology sector, providing services that include instant settlement and treasury management tools.
