Flowdesk Doubles Down on Institutional Crypto Liquidity With New Credit Desk
Market maker Flowdesk just fired a shot across traditional finance’s bow—launching a dedicated credit desk for institutional crypto traders. Because nothing says ’mature market’ like Wall Street-style leverage wrapped in DeFi packaging.
The move signals crypto’s creeping colonization of capital markets infrastructure. First they came for the retail traders, then the hedge funds... now they’re coming for prime brokerage’s lunch.
One cynical take? Another revenue stream for market makers to profit from volatility they help create. But try telling that to institutions hungry for yield in a 3% Treasury world.
