zerohash, a prominent digital asset infrastructure platform, has announced that Virtu Financial, a global market maker and liquidity provider, has joined its liquidity ecosystem as a market-making partner. This integration is set to further deepen institutional-grade liquidity for digital assets.
The partnership sees Virtu providing liquidity across zerohash’s full liquidity stack, which includes its central limit order book and Request for Quote (RFQ) systems. This move is expected to enhance existing pricing depth, execution quality, and market stability for zerohash’s partners, which encompass broker-dealers, banks, fintech platforms, and payment providers.
Virtu is recognised as one of the world’s largest market makers, noted for its extensive expertise in delivering continuous, two-sided liquidity across various asset classes. Its involvement in zerohash’s liquidity ecosystem highlights the ongoing convergence between traditional financial market structure and digital asset infrastructure.

Edward Woodford, Founder and CEO of zerohash commented:
“zerohash is the leading infrastructure to financial institutions and enterprises, including Interactive Brokers, Morgan Stanley, Public.com and tastytrade. The partnership further underscores zerohash’s continued focus on delivering the best and most reliable pricing to customers.”
As the adoption of digital assets continues to accelerate among both retail and institutional investors, execution quality is becoming a crucial differentiator. By integrating Virtu’s liquidity into its platform, zerohash aims to further strengthen its capacity to offer deeper liquidity and tighter spreads, alongside more consistent execution, particularly during periods of market volatility. This also strengthens their offering to crypto prime brokerages.
