Standard Chartered is making a splash by diving into spot crypto trading, allowing you to buy and sell <a href="https://markets.coinpedia.org/bitcoin/">Bitcoin </a>and<a href="https://markets.coinpedia.org/ethereum/"> Ether</a> directly. And yes – this is a big deal. 
This makes it one of the first global banks to venture into spot crypto trading, which has been traditionally overshadowed by crypto derivatives. The new trading desk will operate from London and will be part of the bank’s FX trading unit, starting operations soon.

According to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-06-21/crypto-trading-stanchart-launches-spot-btc-eth-desk">Bloomberg,</a> Standard Chartered has been working closely with regulators to ensure compliance, addressing the growing demand from institutional clients to trade Bitcoin and Ethereum. This move supports the bank’s strategy to help clients across the digital asset ecosystem, offering services like access, custody, tokenization, and interoperability. 
The global banking giant has been diving into different crypto-related fields. Recently Mastercard and Standard Chartered Hong Kong completed its first live experiment on the tokenization of deposits using the Mastercard Multi-Token Network (MTN). 
Notably, Standard Chartered holds stakes in digital asset firms, Zodia Custody and Zodia Markets and has offered crypto custody and institutional crypto trading through them.&nbsp;
