In April, Finery Markets recorded its highest-ever monthly client volume, reaching $2.8B. Overall, in the first four months of 2026, the company recorded a 48% increase in institutional client trading activity across OTC spot digital assets markets.
The trading dynamics correlate with institutional migration to OTC execution, observed in “The 2030 Institutional Crypto Cycle” survey of tier-1 liquidity providers, market makers, institutional OTC desks, and prime brokers. In it, 40% of surveyed firms identify OTC as their primary execution layer, routing over 50% of total trades off-screen.
Konstantin Shulga, Finery Markets' CEO and co-founder, said, "We are witnessing a structural shift as stablecoins become a fundamental tool for payments and settlement within the EU economy. While CEX and DEX volumes have slowed down amid market turbulence, this growing adoption, backed by MiCA’s regulatory framework, is driving record volume from payment providers, brokers and OTC desks—with Euro-linked pairs now reaching up to 50% of our daily flow.”
