Governed Execution for Regulated Crypto Asset Services
The Crypto Environment supports use cases where institutions provide services related to crypto assets.
Buy, sell, and exchange crypto assets
Secure storage of crypto assets
Crypto transaction settlement
Payment and treasury systems
It is purpose-built for regulated production environments, where crypto asset services must meet regulatory, operational, and risk-management requirements comparable to traditional financial services.
The Crypto Environment supports the full operational scope of crypto asset services.
Maintain customer accounts, asset balances, and transaction histories across supported crypto assets.
Orchestrate deposits, withdrawals, internal transfers, and settlement flows across blockchain networks.
Maintain accurate off-chain records that reconcile with on-chain activity for operational oversight.
Track status, confirmations, exceptions
Receive crypto from customers
Controlled outbound transfers
Operational oversight and audit
One Environment, Multiple Operating Models
Supporting order intake, execution routing, settlement, and client account management in agent or principal configurations.
Supporting safekeeping, controlled transfers, and administration of crypto assets on behalf of clients.
These models can be deployed independently or combined, while maintaining clear separation of roles, controls, and responsibilities.
Flexible Blockchain Connectivity
The Crypto Environment integrates with public blockchain networks and custody technologies to support secure crypto operations. NEXUS abstracts network-specific complexity, allowing institutions to operate across multiple chains without embedding protocol logic into business systems.
Integration with supported chains
Wallet infrastructure coordination
Controlled execution flows
Consistent operations across assets
Policy-Driven Crypto Operations
Crypto asset services require strong governance and risk controls. The Crypto Environment embeds these directly into operational workflows, ensuring crypto services operate within clearly defined regulatory and operational boundaries.
Permissions and controls
Eligibility and limits
Transaction execution rules
Audit of all operations
Compliance integration
Operational Transparency by Design
NEXUS maintains an authoritative system-of-record for all crypto asset movements and lifecycle events. The system-of-record provides a consistent and regulator-friendly view of crypto operations independent of underlying blockchain mechanics.
Balances and transactions
On-chain and off-chain
Transaction histories
Accounting systems
Built for Integration and Scale
The Crypto Environment is accessible through secure APIs and an administrative operator portal. Both synchronous and asynchronous processing are supported to handle high-volume crypto operations efficiently.
Embed crypto services into client-facing applications seamlessly.
Automate operational workflows and scale transaction volumes.
Maintain human oversight and intervention where required.
Shared Platform, Distinct Semantics
The Crypto Environment shares its core architecture with the NEXUS Token Environment, including data models, compliance frameworks, and operational tooling. However, it is purpose-built for crypto-specific requirements.
Not issued tokens
Custody transactions
Asset handling
Settlement-driven
This separation ensures that crypto services are operated with the correct assumptions, controls, and risk models.
Production-Ready Crypto Infrastructure
The NEXUS Crypto Environment is designed to support regulated Crypto Asset Service Providers (CASPs) under frameworks such as MiCA. By providing a governed execution environment rather than a monolithic exchange or wallet solution, NEXUS enables institutions to operate crypto services with clarity, flexibility, and regulatory confidence.
Crypto asset services are evolving into regulated financial activities that demand robust infrastructure, clear governance, and operational transparency.
The NEXUS Crypto Environment provides the infrastructure foundation for operating crypto brokerage and custody services responsibly - connecting blockchain networks, customer operations, and regulatory oversight into a single, governed platform.
