“Having just entered the European market at the end of last year, we’ll continue to meet with investors who are currently investing in or planning to invest in digital assets. Our focus will be on developing our European client base and delivering operational and service excellence.”

Tyler has expressed optimism over his partnership with Nickel. He is confident that it will drive more institutional players in the market. Speaking on this matter, Tyler said:

“Since we entered this market, we’ve already seen a maturation of interest, which has progressed from the early adopters to more mainstream interests from the likes of family offices and endowments, for example.”

Fidelity Investments is one of the largest financial firms with nearly $2.5 trillion worth Assets Under Management (AUM). citing a huge opportunity in the cryptocurrency market, the company launched its crypto subsidiary in 2018.
