Architect Launches Regulated Exchange for Perpetual Futures on Traditional Assets

Architect Financial Technologies Inc. has unveiled AX, the first regulated exchange dedicated to perpetual futures trading across traditional asset classes. The Bermuda-based platform, operated under Architect Bermuda Ltd., holds dual licenses from the Bermuda Monetary Authority, ensuring a secure and compliant trading environment.

AX introduces perpetual contracts for currencies, rates, equities, commodities, and energy products—all standardized and centrally cleared. The exchange leverages Connamara Technologies' matching engine, offering both retail-friendly web interfaces and institutional-grade APIs. Collateral options include fiat and digital asset stablecoins, bridging TradFi and crypto markets.

This launch marks a strategic convergence of cryptocurrency innovation with mainstream finance. By applying crypto-native perpetual swap mechanics to traditional underlyings, AX creates new hedging and speculation avenues while maintaining regulatory rigor—a blueprint for future hybrid financial platforms.
