SC Ventures, the innovation and fintech investment arm of Standard Chartered, has made a strategic investment in One Trading, the European crypto-asset exchange. The investment round also saw participation from existing investor MiddleGame Ventures, alongside Valar and SpeedInvest. Although the financial details were not disclosed, the funds will support One Trading’s launch of the first crypto perpetual futures in the European Union (EU) as a MiFID II-compliant trading venue.

In July 2024, One Trading secured an Organised Trading Facility (OTF) license from the Dutch financial market regulator, making it the first regulated crypto perpetual futures exchange in the EU. This approval enables the exchange to offer crypto derivatives, accessible to both retail and institutional clients, marking a significant milestone in One Trading’s efforts to bring onshore crypto futures trading within the EU regulatory framework.
