Spotware Launches Out-of-the-Box Crypto Exchange Software

Earlier this month, Spotware, a Cyprus-based company that offers “out-of-the-box” trading platforms for brokers, announced the launch of “Cxchange” – an out-of-the-box cryptocurrency exchange platform that “allows anyone to start a crypto exchange.”

Alexander Shuman, the chief executive officer of Spotware, stated: “We used our expertise and proven technologies to create Cxchange. There are only a few solutions available in the market resembling Cxchange, but our platform is a high-quality product unlike other ones, as it was developed by a professional financial software development company.”

Spotware’s website states that Cxchange offers “robust and scalable architecture, a matching engine which can support any asset, high level of security, and 24/7 technical support from Spotware.”

Huobi Announces Hadax Will Merge With Huobi Global

The Huobi Autonomous Digital Asset Exchange (Hadax) will be upgraded and rebranded to “Huobi Next,” before merging with Huobi Global on September 19th.

A blog post published by the exchange describes the merger as being the product of “a long-term strategic perspective,” adding that “The merged Huobi Next will be displayed in a unified interface with Huobi Global, where trading of all coins on the Hadax will be moved to Huobi Global. Huobi Global will share the brand potential, the trading users and other resources of Huobi Global with Huobi Next. The voting and Project Center will also be merged to the main website together with Huobi Next.”

Liechtenstein Financial Markets Authority Holds Off on Regulating Eterbase Exchange

The Financial Markets Authority (FMA) of Liechtenstein has decided against imposing regulatory guidelines on the operations of Eterbase AG – a crypto-to-crypto virtual currency exchange.

According to a post published to Eterbase’s blog, “The FMA has created legal certainty regarding the fiat or currency exchange business model and has declined its applicability. This is because Eterbase will not exchange crypto-to-fiat pairs on its own account, and instead will be merely matching exchange orders.”

Eterbase added that the issuance of its initial coin offering “is not deemed an activity which may be subsumed under a currency exchange pursuant to the FMA.”
