Gold-i Integrates Scope Prime’s Digital Asset CFD Liquidity into MatrixNET

WHY THIS MATTERS
This integration reflects the continued convergence of traditional FX infrastructure and digital asset markets. By bringing Scope Prime’s crypto CFD liquidity into Gold-i’s MatrixNET, brokers and institutional clients gain access to deeper, more competitive pricing within a familiar multi-asset environment. As demand grows for 24/7 trading and exposure to crypto-linked instruments, platforms that can aggregate liquidity across venues and asset classes are becoming essential for efficient execution and risk management.

It also highlights how crypto liquidity is maturing to meet institutional standards. Features such as tight spreads, large notional capacity, and prime brokerage-style risk frameworks signal a shift away from fragmented retail-focused markets toward more robust, scalable infrastructure. The introduction of “digi” instruments—traditional assets built on crypto underlyings—further blurs the line between asset classes, pointing to a future where trading is increasingly unified across markets.

Gold-i, a global leader in FX and crypto trading technology, has integrated Scope Prime’s digital asset CFD liquidity into its multi-asset liquidity management and distribution platform, MatrixNET. 

Scope Prime’s digital asset offering delivers highly competitive top-of-book crypto CFD pricing from 0 bps, with liquidity aggregated from leading exchanges, ECNs and market makers. The feed remains tight beyond top of book, with an average effective spread of ~5 bps on $3M BTCUSD notional. Scope Prime has recently introduced its “digi” symbols – TradFi instruments built on crypto underlyings – enabling 24/7 CFD trading on assets such as DigiXAU (gold) and DigiXAG (silver). Supported by its prime brokerage infrastructure, Scope Prime also offers large risk capacity, with margins from 2% and very large NOP limits.

This latest development from Gold-i builds on an existing relationship with Scope Prime, the institutional arm of Rostro Group, with its FX liquidity having been available through MatrixNET for several years. 

Daniel Lawrance, CEO at Scope Prime said: “Integrating Scope Prime’s crypto liquidity with Gold-i’s MatrixNET gives brokers and professional clients faster, simpler access to a highly competitive institutional-grade feed. For us, the benefit is clear – broader distribution through a proven liquidity management platform, reduced integration friction for shared clients, and a more efficient route to market for our crypto CFD pricing, deep liquidity and prime-brokerage level risk capacity.” 

Tom Higgins, Founder and CEO, Gold-i added: “We are continually expanding our crypto offering to enable our clients to have access to the deepest, most competitive liquidity available, and the flexibility to optimise execution for different client types. Scope Prime brings a high-quality crypto offering to MatrixNET, with tight pricing, strong depth of book and institutional-grade risk capacity. This integration further strengthens our offering, providing clients with greater choice and increased capacity.” 

Gold-i’s MatrixNET, trusted by brokers, fund managers, prop trading firms and crypto institutions worldwide, empowers users with a multitude of routing and aggregation methods and the ability to tailor execution models to suit the unique preferences of different client types. Amongst the many benefits, it enables institutional clients to access deep liquidity pools, achieve better prices, gain more clients and reduce toxic trading.

FF NEWS TAKE
Gold-i is strengthening its position as a bridge between FX and crypto liquidity, expanding MatrixNET into a more comprehensive multi-asset execution hub. Integrations like this reduce friction for brokers who want to offer crypto exposure without building new infrastructure from scratch.

However, as more providers enter the space, differentiation will come down to execution quality, reliability, and the ability to manage risk across volatile markets. Crypto CFDs, while attractive for their flexibility, also carry higher risk profiles, meaning brokers will need robust controls alongside access to liquidity. If Gold-i can continue to combine depth of liquidity with strong risk management tools, it will remain well positioned in an increasingly competitive multi-asset trading landscape.
