Chicago, March 28, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CEX.IO, a global ecosystem of products and services connecting people and businesses to the cryptocurrency economy and decentralized finance, was named “Best Overall DeFi Platform” for the second year in a row by FinTech Breakthrough Awards. FinTech Breakthrough is an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the best companies and technologies driving innovation in the global FinTech market.
As a firm leader in the digital asset space, CEX.IO is one of the first and longest-running companies to offer an ecosystem of comprehensive products and services for users at every stage of their crypto journey. With accessible corners to explore crypto trading, betting, saving and lending, CEX.IO has built an all-in-one platform for curious participants looking to expand their footprint in a fast-moving industry.
CEX.IO’s second consecutive recognition in this category celebrates the release of its latest offering, Exchange Plus, which builds on the legacy and capabilities of the original Exchange product. Nested among the company’s ecosystem of award-winning crypto offerings, Exchange Plus integrates seamlessly with custodial wallet services, providing access to a variety of available payment providers and funding options. Informed by nearly a decade of experience driving innovation as a trusted guide, CEX.IO’s Exchange Plus product aims to fill remaining gaps in the crypto trader’s toolkit.
“For our seventh annual program this year, we had award nominations pouring in from the best and brightest FinTech companies, and we’re ecstatic to finally share the great news and results of this year’s program,” said James Johnson, CEO of FinTech Breakthrough . “Our goal is to deliver the most comprehensive analysis of the FinTech industry each year, and with over 4,000 nominations coming in from around the world, the evaluation was broad and extremely competitive for the 2023 program. After thorough review, scoring and analysis, we were confident that Exchange Plus met all our success criteria.”
Since its foundation in 2013, CEX.IO has been a pioneer in both technological advancement and regulatory structure within the digital asset space. As the first exchange to offer users the ability to buy Bitcoin with a credit card, CEX.IO has worked closely with governments and regional entities to form lasting partnerships that bridge the gap between traditional and decentralized finance. Exchange Plus helps cement these connections by integrating the company’s institutional arm, CEX.IO Prime, to give users greater access to liquidity across a wider range of bids and asks.
“It is an absolute honor to receive this award for the second year in a row. Just like the security and trust of our global community, we accept this recognition with pride and a sense of responsibility, says Oleksandr Lutskevych, founder and CEO of CEX.IO. “Many promises have been made throughout the crypto ecosystem. But we choose to let our products and actions speak for themselves. We hope our win inspires other budding entrepreneurs to embrace product excellence as well as regulatory compliance rooted in ethical crypto stewardship.”
Where uncertainty has become its own currency in the crypto space, Exchange Plus offers traders greater control and dexterity to respond to a changing environment. As a culmination of CEX.IO’s proven expertise and dedication to making the digital resource space accessible and intuitive, Exchange Plus is the latest effort to move the industry forward.
