Cube positions itself as an exchange that prevents client losses in the event of collapses similar to FTX.<\/p>\n<p>The exchange employs a hybrid mechanism with off-chain order matching and on-chain settlements. This allows traders to participate in trading on the platform without transferring assets to a deposit account.<\/p>\n<p>Cube&#8217;s storage, based on multiparty computation and with separate non-custodial wallets, provides users with full control over their funds. They can verify the presence of assets without a third-party audit.<\/p>\n<p>The exchange supports trading in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, and Solana. In the future, the platform will expand its offering of L1 blockchains, assured Lipinski.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in 2023, venture investments in the crypto industry amounted to $10.7 billion, a 68% decrease from the previous year ($33.3 billion).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The hybrid crypto trading platform Cube.Exchange, operating in a limited access mode, has raised $12 million in a Series A funding round, reports The Block.
