What does the CEO say? DriveWealth CEO Bob Cortright said:
“As regulatory environments tighten around crypto and customers get more focused on spreads and efficiency, we can’t continue in a world where you can charge 200 basis points on a transaction.”
He noted that a growing number of companies in various fields are requesting access to cryptocurrency liquidity to allow their users to trade.
What is known about the organization? DriveWealth is a New Jersey-based company backed by Japanese tech giant Softbank and valued at $2,85 billion.
