What exactly is the exchange infrastructure trilemma? The strategic challenge faced by trading platforms in balancing three critical factors—latency (execution speed), liquidity (market depth), and reliability (system stability). Speed attracts traders but risks downtime; liquidity broadens markets but may slow execution; reliability ensures uptime but can limit performance.

After an incredible few days at Digital Asset Summit 2025, one thing is clear: 2025 is shaping up to be a breakout year for digital assets. Here’s what we’re seeing: ☑️ Fintechs & brokerages are racing to add digital assets — The demand for offering a full range of crypto assets, not just a handful, is accelerating fast. ☑️ Exchanges are expanding beyond crypto — US exchanges are moving into equities, while major APAC exchanges are looking to re-establish a foothold in the US. ☑️ Liquidity is becoming a key differentiator — As platforms expand, deep and reliable liquidity across multiple markets is turning into a major competitive advantage. With potential US market structure legislation on the horizon, the opportunity is bigger than ever! #DigitalAssets #Crypto #DASNYC2025 #InstitutionalCrypto #CryptoExchanges
