Coinbase Prime aims to attract institutional investors into the cryptocurrencies market

The goal of the program is to overcome the shortcomings in infrastructure that the institutions demand by providing “loan and margin financing products to qualified clients.”

“We are delighted to help institutions around the world participate in this emerging asset class,” stated the Coinbase team.

The main reason why institutional investors avoid trading on the cryptocurrencies market is the lack of some clear crypto regulations and the needed instrument for a secure and reliable trading.

The Coinbase platform will supply a decentralized liquidity reservoir for all Coinbase instruments. Over the year, it will “introduce new features such as low latency performance, local data center colocation services, institutional connectivity and access, and clearing and settlement services”.

Furthermore, financial institutions lack the right resources and instruments to be able to operate in the cryptocurrencies market. By supplying all the utilities and facilities to these institutional investors, Coinbase Prime will allow these investors to embark on an easy journey into the cryptocurrency universe.

The final outcome for the cryptocurrencies market, according to some crypto enthusiasts, will be the $1 trillion crypto market cap milestone.
