Hybrid crypto transactions

NDAX is providing the first hybrid crypto transaction experience in Canada. Giving users the choice to withdraw cryptocurrency instantaneously by whitelisting withdrawal addresses. 

“At NDAX, we believe that custody of assets should be held safely with their owners, and for that, we are committed to educating our customers on how to safely hold their crypto. The hybrid crypto transaction model will enable safe withdrawal of funds to the wallet of the user’s choice automatically, without any intervention from the exchange, making it a safe non-custodial experience. For the members that still do not feel comfortable storing their crypto, NDAX continues to offer the best-in-class custody infrastructure,” Mr. Hammoud said.

Wide range of assets with a large liquidity pool

NDAX has a large selection of high market cap digital assets. However, if a coin isn’t listed on the exchange, NDAX Wealth clients can still inquire about trading it and NDAX will work with them to make a match. 

Institutional-grade security with segregated crypto accounts

Clients’ cryptocurrency is stored in a multi-signature cold-storage powered by Ledger Vault, an institutional-grade cryptocurrency security solution.

NDAX Wealth, provides wealth management groups, hedge funds, and high-net-worth clients segregated crypto-asset accounts with multi-governance infrastructure that provides users with full control over their portfolio of funds. 

Same-day settlements/segregated bank accounts

Clients’ funds are safely stored with a Canadian Crown-owned bank in a segregated account. Canadian banking also allows for a variety of funding methods that ensure same-day settlement of CAD or USD deposits and withdrawals.  

Industry-leading regulatory compliance
NDAX is registered with the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) – Canada’s financial intelligence unit. They have established and implemented a robust compliance regime that adheres to the Proceeds of Crime, Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Act (PCMLTFA) and associated Regulations.

NDAX is one of Canada’s leading crypto exchanges, offering 10 cryptocurrencies with several more soon to be announced.
