Why Crypto-LPs Are Entering Forex
Forex has traditionally relied on banks and institutional liquidity providers. But with the rise of DeFi and blockchain, companies like B2Broker and Finalto have emerged that integrate crypto assets into trading major currencies (EUR/USD, GBP/JPY, USD/CAD).Instead of classic fiat settlements, USDT and USDC act as “bridges” that simplify cross-currency transactions.
