Fireblocks integration

As part of the balances UI, Algotrader provides a full integration with the Fireblocks API to show balances of different wallet & account types supported by Fireblocks.

• Fireblocks vault accounts
• Fiat accounts
• Exchange accounts
• External wallets

In addition, AlgoTrader users can initiate transfers between any two connected wallets/accounts through the Fireblocks network, via the AlgoTrader UI or API.

Utilizing the Fireblocks integration facilitates use cases such as the ability to transfer assets to a venue “just in time” prior to executing an order, as illustrated here,  thereby reducing counterparty risk whilst increasing central liquidity management.

Fireblocks Off-Exchange Settlement

AlgoTrader also integrates the Fireblocks off-exchange settlement, which removes the need for pre-funding when executing orders on crypto exchanges. To demonstrate this capability a Straight-Through-Processing (STP) workflow was implemented in collaboration with Fireblocks and Bitfinex.

 

Metaco integration

Metaco is a digital asset custody platform enabling businesses to secure, issue and manage digital assets. The AlgoTrader Metaco connector provides access to account balances from all Metaco accounts / wallets. It also enables transfer of assets between these Metaco wallets and outside wallets.

The diagram below illustrates a typical banking use case where AlgoTrader is integrated with the Metaco custody platform. This configuration orchestrates the end-to-end trading lifecycle from order placement, through venue selection and pre-funding to trade execution and then to custody, settlement, and core banking integration.
