# True Markets

> True Markets enables fintechs, brokerages and banks to offer every market inside their existing products.

True Markets is a digital asset trading platform. It provides non-custodial trading infrastructure with stablecoin settlement for retail traders, brokers, and banks.

True Markets is a digital asset trading company that builds non-custodial trading and settlement infrastructure for crypto markets. It gives retail traders, brokerages, and banks a way to access digital asset markets through a single integration rather than building custody and exchange capabilities themselves. Its platform combines centralized and decentralized execution with stablecoin settlement, aiming to make trading faster and more transparent.

The company addresses the operational burden of offering digital asset markets, which otherwise requires custody, compliance, and separate integrations for each blockchain. Its infrastructure abstracts stablecoin, gas, and chain complexity behind a single API, so partners can add new markets without per-chain engineering. Client assets are held through non-custodial key management combined with qualified third-party custody arrangements.

The flagship offering, originally launched as TrueX and now operating under the True Markets brand, functions as a stablecoin-native exchange supporting spot trading across multiple blockchains. Around it, True Markets offers a mobile app for direct trading, a gateway API for embedding trading, pricing, and yield features into partner products, and tools for agent-driven and programmatic trading. It is used by fintechs, brokerages, banks, and individual traders seeking access to a broad range of digital assets, tokenized real-world assets, and derivatives from a single account.

## Products

- [True Markets Exchange](https://thegrid.id/profiles/truemarkets_co): True Markets Exchange is a centralized exchange for trading digital assets against stablecoin balances. It operates a central limit order book with sub-millisecond matching, settling trades continuously in stablecoins while a qualified custodian holds client assets separately from the trading venue. The exchange serves institutional traders, market makers, and retail clients through REST, FIX, and WebSocket connectivity across multiple blockchain networks. (Centralised Exchange, Live, Main Product)
- [True Markets App](https://thegrid.id/profiles/truemarkets_co): True Markets App is a self-custody wallet and trading terminal for retail users to buy, sell, and hold digital assets, tokenized equities, and other real-world assets. It maintains a single stablecoin-native balance and automatically routes orders to available liquidity. Private keys are generated in a trusted execution environment and remain under user control, while a qualified custodian safeguards client funds. The app also surfaces market data and connects to the same trading infrastructure used by institutional clients. (Wallet, Live)
- [True Markets Gateway](https://thegrid.id/profiles/truemarkets_co): True Markets Gateway is an API platform that lets fintechs, brokerages, and banks offer digital asset trading, payments, and agentic execution within their own products. It routes orders through a shared liquidity venue, abstracting stablecoin, gas, and chain complexity behind a single credential. The platform also delivers real-time cross-market pricing and on-chain yield on idle balances without assets leaving custody. Agent-ready endpoints with scoped keys allow autonomous trading strategies to execute safely across multiple blockchain networks. (Financial Services Platform, Live)
- [True Markets CLI](https://thegrid.id/profiles/truemarkets_co): True Markets CLI is a terminal-native and MCP-compatible tool for non-custodial trading by developers and AI agents.

Private keys are secured through a trusted execution environment and never leave the user's device. (AI Agent, Open Beta)
