Cryptocurrencies have risen in popularity at an exponential rate over the past few years, and while it’s somewhat romanticized by many because of their disconnection between banks and institutions, traders and investors are increasingly wanting the security of having regulatory protection when trading cryptos.

Cryptocurrencies have risen in popularity at an exponential rate over the past few years, and while it’s somewhat romanticized by many because of their disconnection between banks and institutions, traders and investors are increasingly wanting the security of having regulatory protection when trading cryptos. As a regulated CFD broker, we’re able to offer them access to crypto markets via our crypto CFD products. We’ve seen a number of crypto exchanges hacked over the past several years with hundreds of millions of dollars worth of tokens stolen that are unable to ever be recovered, and by offering crypto CFDs we’re able to provide a safe and regulated environment for clients to capitalise on the price movements of cryptocurrencies.
Also, depending on the region, an increasing number of financial institutions block or refuse transactions from Crypto exchanges, so for an investor or trader wanting to gain exposure to the crypto markets it’s increasingly difficult to withdraw funds from an exchange. By offering crypto CFDs we are offering clients who want exposure to crypto markets a safe and secure environment to do so with no barriers for withdrawing their funds if and when they choose to.
Another advantage of trading crypto CFDs with Moneta Markets is that there’s the potential to profit regardless of the direction, so traders of all styles can take advantage of rising prices by trading long, as well as capitalising on falling prices by short selling. And, because Moneta Markets’ crypto CFDs are leveraged, traders are able to capitalise not only from smaller market movements, but increased market exposure with lower trading capital.
Moneta Markets also offer cryptocurrency deposits in addition to fiat, why was this introduced?
A key component of Moneta Markets’ brand proposition is that we’re a client-centric FinTech company. As such, it’s imperative that we are able to live up to that claim by meeting and exceeding the expectations of our clients when it comes to keeping up with new technologies, and even more so when it comes to a game-changing technology such as cryptocurrencies.
Cryptocurrencies are here to stay, they’re the future of financial transactions so it makes perfect sense to be able to offer our clients the option to fund their account using cryptos, and to be honest I’m quite surprised that we are one of the few CFD brokers to offer cryptocurrency as an option for deposits and withdrawals.
The demand to implement crypto account funding came not only from the appeal as their own tradable product, but many clients quite like the fact that they don’t need to disclose their bank account or credit card details to fund their trading account. Also, it’s just so accessible – there are no international borders when it comes to cryptocurrencies and costs are typically extremely low, if not zero.
At the end of the day, it all comes down to giving clients what they want, as well as making it as easy as possible for them to access the products that they want to trade.
You mentioned being client-centric, what does that mean to you?
Moneta Markets was created specifically to cater to traders who want to access a wide range of products through our next-generation WebTrader platform. Traders are tired of the clunky old MT4/MT5 model which has failed to evolve with the industry. By leveraging the best in web-based technology we’re able to offer traders access to global markets across any operating system and mobile device, wherever there’s an internet connection.
We worked tirelessly to create a product that is the direct result of client feedback received over the past 10+ years. As touched on above, offering crypto CFDs to trade as well as cryptocurrency funding was all part of this feedback, and as we continue to receive feedback whether related to introducing new crypto CFDs and funding methods via new tokens/coins, feedback surrounding our trading platform, or any other component of our business, we’ll continue to build upon what we offer, to create the perfect trading environment for traders of all instruments.
What does the future hold for Moneta Markets, and the industry at large?
We’re in the middle of a major transitional period in global markets, and it’s quite exciting. Many followers of cryptocurrency subscribe to the idea that it will eventually replace fiat currency, and while this idea also has its fair share of critics, it’s here to stay in some capacity and I think it would be foolish to think otherwise. While I don’t think we’ll see the death of fiat any time soon, especially when it comes to Forex and foreign exchange in general, it is important that we continue to make cryptocurrencies available for clients, and include cryptocurrency as an accepted method for account deposits and withdrawals.
For us as a broker, we are excited about how things are continually evolving within not only the crypto space but the FinTech sector, and as a company that thrives off innovation, we look forward to adapting with it. The CFD industry is fast-paced, and as a tech-driven company we’re thrilled to be a part of something as revolutionary as the ‘crypto era’ and we look forward to seeing the true potential of not only cryptocurrencies but blockchain technology as a whole.
