We at IDAP asked ourselves a basic, fundamental question about the crypto trading market as it exists today: What does it offer to traders

The Lack of Trading Choices
A cursory glance into the current crypto trading market revealed a lack of offerings for trading and little to no freedom to the trader to take a position that stems from a robust strategy utilising diversified financial instruments, based off of advanced tools that streamline the process. With this in mind, we decided to centre our core philosophy on incorporating the advantages of legacy trading offerings into the current cryptocurrency market via the introduction of crypto derivatives instruments and powerful trading tools.
Exchanges within the present crypto trading ecosystem fall short on both trading instruments offered on their platforms as well as operating efficiency in the event of rapid market fluctuations. The norm for exchanges is to offer Spot Trading of cryptocurrency pairs, with a select few offering margin lending for crypto assets.

Market Opportunities
The challenges of the nascent crypto trading economy before us, in fact present unique opportunities. The current landscape of crypto trading warrants more choices be made available to investors. With diversified trading instruments at their disposal, investors will have the freedom to hedge and speculate crypto based assets, while faring better against the volatility of the market. Moreover, with the introduction of investment and trading instruments that minimise risk and maximise profit potential, many who have stayed shy of the crypto market will be encouraged to join the crypto economy. Customers will benefit further with improved uptime, especially if the market is bobbing up and down rapidly. To this end, IDAP is focused on standing out from all other exchanges operating today: we not only wish to provide customers with long due freedom by introducing derivatives-based

Potential for Growth of Cryptocurrency Market
Despite falling to almost half its value after hitting the $800 billion mark at the turn of last year, the crypto market never lost its potential to scale new heights. As of now, industry-wide consensus predicts that the market capitalisation for cryptocurrencies will hit a trillion dollars, sooner than later. By proffering a high degree of freedom to its traders and investors, the market can fuel this growth by leaps and strides. Making it easy to take short or long positions, helping expose traditional investors to cryptos via derivatives trading and overall fostering risk mitigation by introducing derived financial instruments, will catalyse the market to even greater heights than predicted. As such, the role of exchanges in driving this growth becomes instrumental and it is in this context where IDAP as a platform seeks to make a difference.

Need for Derivatives Products in Crypto Trading
Given both the size and the age of the cryptocurrency market, a tremendous growth in market capitalisation is not a question of if but when. Furthermore, the crypto market is far from maturity. Henceforth, in light of both these factors the market stands to benefit exponentially from diverse trading and investing instruments that will usher in investors and traders in large numbers to drive up trade volumes as well as increase liquidity by expanding its pool of participants.
Derivatives products based off of cryptocurrencies will not only introduce the much-needed diversity to the market but also carry over all the advantages from the legacy trading ecosystem to the crypto market. By enabling indirect exposure to cryptocurrencies via Futures, Swaps and Options, a larger trading community can be built. Increased participants in the market brought forth by derivative crypto assets will lead to better price discovery.

Challenges of the Existing Crypto Trading Ecosystem
An assessment of the existing trade exchanges in the crypto market sheds light on the challenges they face at the moment. A market’s success is closely tied to the exchanges that constitute its ecosystem. In case of cryptocurrencies, there are certain challenges that upon resolution will accelerate the growth of the trading market and redefine user experience when it comes to crypto trading.

Lack of Mature Trading Systems
The trading systems presently available in the crypto landscape are nowhere close to their traditional counterparts. The design philosophy of most platforms is a reflection of the lack of choices available to traders; the prominent form of trading is Spot trading. In traditional markets, where numerous and varied types of financial instruments exist, trading platforms have evolved to support complex operations, automation of certain aspects, sanity in visualisation of different kinds of data, all tied together with large volume handling capabilities and high uptime resulting in a stable efficient platform, packed with advanced tools to provide traders a seamless experience. This however is the result of decades of improvement as needs and demands of traders kept growing and changing.

Security Concerns
A digital ecosystem needs constant protection against hacks and cyber-attacks. Exchanges need to be on their toes as malicious actors find new and innovative ways to funnel out funds from exchanges. Many exchanges have suffered from cyber-attacks that have resulted in losses in order of billions of dollars, and thus security measures need to be used smartly and consistently as a safeguard against hacks. Even simply following industry best practices goes a long way. In addition to these standard procedures, defences against digital attacks are bolstered by investigation of edge cases and enforcement of appropriate counter-measures. Most importantly, regular review and update of security are absolutely crucial.
