EDX Markets, a new cryptocurrency exchange backed by Citadel Securities, Fidelity Investments and Charles Schwab, has begun executing transactions in recent weeks and is expected to announce its launch later Tuesday local time, the Wall Street Journal reported. EDX Markets is a non-custodial exchange and does not directly handle customers' digital assets or serve individual investors directly. EDX Markets said it will offer trading in four cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin and bitcoin cash (assets that are not considered securities by the SEC). Foresight News previously reported that in September 2022, Charles Schwab, Citadel Securities, Fidelity Digital Asset, Paradigm, Sequoia Capital and Virtu Financial announced plans to launch cryptocurrency exchange EDX Markets. EDX Markets will be led by CEO Jamil Nazarali, CTO Tony Acuña-Rohter and General Counsel David Forman.
