Launch follows strong industry backing from firms including Arca, Avalanche, B2C2, Crypto.com, FalconX, Fireblocks, Galaxy, Tassat, tZERO, U.S. Bank and Wintermute
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lynq, the real-time, interest-bearing settlement network for digital assets, today announced July 15, 2025, as its official go-live date. Lynq’s launch follows more than a year of market research and collaboration with some of the world’s leading digital asset firms, including B2C2, Crypto.com, FalconX, Fireblocks, Galaxy and Wintermute. In addition to onboarding at tZERO Securities, the special purpose broker dealer, and connecting to the platform via API, launch partners are helping accelerate adoption by referring key counterparties and integrating Lynq into their back-office workflows.
The Lynq platform sets a new standard by delivering institutional clients instantaneous settlement capabilities while providing them with a mechanism to continually accrue interest. The growing industry support and continued momentum ahead of the July 15th launch reinforce the importance of building independent real-time settlement infrastructure for the benefit of the entire digital asset ecosystem.
“The digital asset community has been searching for a settlement solution that solves the challenges of market fragmentation and counterparty risk,” said Jerald David, CEO of Lynq. “With Lynq, we are delivering a scalable and settlement utility that reduces friction, unlocks liquidity, and enables institutions to operate with full transparency.”
Lynq was developed by Arca Labs, Tassat, and tZERO with the goal of creating a settlement platform that meets the industry’s demand for liquidity, scale, and security while maximizing capital efficiency for all network participants. Lynq’s innovative architecture leverages tZERO’s Broker-Dealer and Special Purpose Broker-Dealer licenses, Arca’s expertise in asset management, and Tassat’s proven, real-time blockchain settlement platform.
“Digital asset markets are entering a new structural phase that will be defined by real-time settlement, regulatory clarity, and institutional-grade infrastructure,” said Katryna Hanush, Director of Business Development and Partnerships at Wintermute. “Lynq’s launch is a pivotal step forward in that direction. It combines the ability to earn interest during settlement with the security and trust of established financial partners. This is the type of solution the industry needs, and Wintermute is proud to support it.”
Lynq’s service partners include Avalanche, which provides the open-source Layer one blockchain network, and U.S. Bank, which serves as Lynq’s qualified cash custodian.
