Institutional Crypto Ties Deeper Into Wall Street Systems and Global Regulation

Broadridge's integration of Crypto.com into its NYFIX network allows institutional brokers to route crypto orders over the same FIX infrastructure used for equities and bonds, while Ripple's $1.25 billion purchase of prime broker Hidden Road in April 2025 further embeds digital assets into traditional finance. Parallel regulatory moves in the US, EU, Japan, South Korea, Dubai, Singapore and Hong Kong, alongside rapid growth in tokenisation and record Bitcoin ETF inflows, indicate that major institutions are now focused on implementation rather than debating crypto's legitimacy.
