Nasdaq Partners with Talos to Bridge Crypto and Traditional Finance

Nasdaq has taken a significant step towards integrating digital assets into its financial system by partnering with Talos, a technology firm. Through this partnership, the Calypso platform, used by Nasdaq for risk management, will be integrated across markets, allowing traditional firms to handle digital assets using their existing workflows.

This move is part of Nasdaq's broader strategy to treat crypto as a core part of the financial system rather than a separate category. The company aims to create a seamless trading experience between traditional and digital assets.

Nasdaq is not alone in this endeavor, with competitors like the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and ICE building blockchain-based venues for 24/7 trading of tokenized stocks and ETFs.
