Competing in the crypto ecosystem entails many things. The first is adhering to regulatory provisions. While most firms circumvent this by denying services to users in stric areas like the United States, things are changing. Besides launching during the bull market cycle, Arkham launched the trading platform at a time the country has voted in a pro-crypto President – Donald Trump.
With this move, the expectation is that more regulatory clarity will be achieved. If achieved, this will help in leveling the playing field for Arkham to take on rivals like Coinbase and Binance.
Building on Current Influence
As a brokerage spun out of Arkham Intelligence, the platform occupies a very pivotal position in the crypto industry. It helps in breaking many of the core data insights relating to onchain wallet activities.
The protocol first flagged the Mt Gox Bitcoin transfers. Also, the protocol hinted at the compromise on the US Government’s wallet last month.
Though there are many data services firm in the market, Arkham Intelligence has managed to carve a niche for itself. The firm is now building on this momentum to scale the crypto trading platform accordingly.
