Terminals For Exchanging Crypto Put To The Test By Institutional Industry Leaders

A company which has created a terminal for exchanging cryptocurrencies, as well as state-of-the-art compliance technology, has started to roll out early versions of its hardware to industry leaders worldwide.

Blockchain Terminal says several alpha terminals are already in use - and right now, 200 beta machines are being built in New York.Its hardware brings together market data from more than 60 exchanges, as well as details of upcoming ICOs, to give investors access to hundreds of cryptocurrencies in a "Secure and monitored environment."

Helping institutional investors embrace cryptoAccording to Blockchain Terminal, rising cryptocurrency prices have left the vast majority of the hedge fund industry behind - with many institutions unable to buy, trade and invest because they have been equipped with tools that are not suitable for analyzing these assets and completing transactions.

The company says a bridge between crypto markets and institutional investors is achieved through ComplianceGuard - an application it has created to surpass the stringent standards imposed by hedge funds.

Blockchain Terminal's ecosystem is equipped with an open-source app store so software can be built which fulfills the needs of different investors - and the company says this marketplace is fueled by a thriving community of developers who are working on new programs all the time.

Blockchain Terminal says it is launching at a time when hedge funds are suffering a crisis of confidence - with high fees and weak levels of performance seeing an estimated $112 bln pulled from the industry.

New terminal enhancements plannedAs the first Blockchain terminals are put to the test, the company is already thinking ahead and mapping out new features for the future.

Blockchain Terminal's initial coin offering is scheduled to end on 30 April, with the company claiming that earlier phases of its crowdsale - including a private presale - were immensely successful.

Looking ahead to the future, the company hopes to launch a retail-friendly of its terminal by the autumn - further accelerating the adoption of its machines.

In recent weeks, Blockchain Terminal's team have been attending crypto conferences in North America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
