Bitvavo Expands MiCA-Ready Liquidity Access to Talos Institutional Clients

Integration offers connectivity to the largest exchange for Euro-denominated spot crypto

AMSTERDAM, May 14, 2025 – Bitvavo, the leading European cryptocurrency trading platform and the largest euro spot exchange globally, today announced its integration with Talos, the premier provider of institutional trading and portfolio technology for digital assets. This integration better enables asset managers, hedge funds, market makers, and brokers to execute their trading strategies with efficient access to Bitvavo’s deep euro liquidity through the Talos platform.

The collaboration between Bitvavo and Talos helps support the growing institutional demand for Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) compliant liquidity in the European digital asset market. Founded in Amsterdam, Bitvavo operates under licenses and registrations in key European jurisdictions and is preparing for authorization under the European Union’s MiCA regulation through the Dutch Financial Markets Authority.

“Bitvavo is committed to providing institutions with a robust and trusted trading environment,” said Mark Nuvelstijn, CEO of Bitvavo. “Through this integration, we are reinforcing our position as the leading venue for Euro-denominated crypto, and making this liquidity accessible to our clients through the Talos platform.”

Clients of both firms can now seamlessly connect from the Talos order and execution management system (OEMS) to Bitvavo’s deep liquidity across a wide range of more than 350 crypto and fiat pairs. Like the Talos platform, Bitvavo was designed for institutional scale and currently handles over €100 billion in trading volume per year, with 50% market share of all Euro liquidity. 

“Bitvavo stands out in Europe for its regulatory readiness and user-centric approach,” said Frank van Zegveld, Head of EMEA Sales at Talos. “With Bitvavo now integrated into our network, our mutual clients benefit from access to deep liquidity in Euros, using advanced execution tools and in compliance with an evolving regulatory landscape.”

The integration with Talos highlights Bitvavo’s continued focus on building a secure, compliant, and accessible trading environment for digital assets in Europe.
