N3XT has joined Clear Markets' Collateralizer network as a dollar custodian, the companies said. Institutions can pledge U.S. dollars held at N3XT as margin for crypto derivatives traded on Clear Markets' CFTC-registered swap execution facility, CMSEF. N3XT operates under Wyoming's special-purpose depository institution charter and is not FDIC insured. Clear Markets provides collateral-management technology. The announcement did not give a go-live date, transaction volumes, fees or client names.

Key points

  1. N3XT joined Clear Markets' Collateralizer network as a dollar custodian.
  2. Institutions can pledge dollars held at N3XT as margin on Clear Markets' CFTC-registered swap execution facility, CMSEF.
  3. N3XT operates under Wyoming's special-purpose depository institution charter and is not FDIC insured.

Why it matters

The arrangement keeps the derivatives venue and the dollar custodian separate. Institutions can pledge bank-held dollars as margin for crypto derivatives.

What's unclear

The announcement did not give a go-live date, transaction volumes, fees or client names.
The release says clients can now use N3XT cash as collateral while another passage says institutions will be able to pledge dollars.
