Cryptocurrencies’ rapid ascent as an asset class has come without much of the infrastructure required for safe, secure, and regulatory compliant trading. Most of the modern crypto exchanges were not tested for security breaches, as their owners were rushing to have the first-mover advantage. If the infrastructure itself cannot perform at the scale required, even vast, deep liquidity pools or smart execution algorithms won’t make a difference.
