- In June this year, Harrison outlined his company’s long-term goal to become an all-in-one investment platform. Apart from introducing stock trading services, it aims to offer the first real-time 24/7 margin for futures to American users:
“For most clearinghouses today, margin is done once per day, five days per week. We’re proposing to do this real-time, every 30 seconds, 24/7, and that is a novel aspect of our application.”
- The US affiliate of FTX is among the fastest-growing exchanges globally. At the beginning of 2022, it secured a $400 million fundraiser led by Japan’s SoftBank Group Corp. and Singapore’s Temasek Holdings. The financing boosted the firm’s valuation to $8 billion.
