Abu Dhabi-based Matrix goes live with more virtual assets approved by ADGM

Matrix, a global multilateral virtual asset trading platform, lists two new assets: XRP and XLM. The listings come as part of Matrix’s bid to bring a wider array of options to traders and investors around the world. Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), the leading global jurisdiction for virtual assets, approved these assets for listing on Matrix’s regulated platform.

ADGM is an award-winning financial center and an International Financial Free Zone. With governing from the Registration Authority (RA), the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) and ADGM Courts, ADGM advocates for a fair and transparent trading ecosystem. ADGM’s thorough regulatory practices ensure that all approved assets are consistent with their internationally-recognized standards.

Matrix expands its list of supported virtual assets to include:

  • XRP, native currency of RippleNet, a blockchain-based payments network, 
  • Lumen (XLM), native currency of Stellar, a decentralized protocol for exchanging cryptocurrencies to fiat.

“Our goal at Matrix has always been to give retail and corporate investors a single platform with the security of regulatory oversight,” says Vasja Zupan, President of Matrix. “We are thrilled to broaden our array of tokens and stablecoins as the first Multilateral Trading Facility in ADGM to expand our virtual asset offering, with even more additions underway. We pride ourselves in granting investors peace of mind through safe and expanding regulated trading choices for our community.”
