QCP, one of Singapore’s leading digital asset trading firms, is rapidly scaling its global operations as institutional demand for regulated crypto trading continues to rise. The company announced that it has grown its workforce by 50% year-over-year, now totaling 157 employees, and has opened offices in multiple key financial hubs.
The firm has significantly strengthened its presence outside Singapore by launching new offices in New York, Abu Dhabi, Kuala Lumpur, and Ho Chi Minh City, while also deepening its coverage in London. At the same time, QCP expanded its Singapore headquarters to a larger space in Prudential Tower, where 119 staff members are currently based.
Building a Global Regulated Trading Network
QCP’s rapid expansion comes on the heels of major regulatory milestones. The company secured two important approvals:
- A Major Payment Institution (MPI) license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS)
- A Financial Services Permission (FSP) from Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM)
With these licenses, QCP can now provide regulated spot trading, derivatives, and structured products to major institutional clients all under a 24/7 trading framework. This positions the firm as a reliable institutional partner in the increasingly competitive global crypto trading landscape.
Serving Major Institutions Across the Crypto Ecosystem
Founder Darius Sit emphasized that institutions are seeking partners with strong trading expertise, reliable execution, and robust regulatory standing. With licensed operations in Singapore and Abu Dhabi and teams on the ground in New York and London QCP aims to be exactly that.
QCP already works with high-profile clients, including Nasdaq and companies backed by BlackRock, such as tokenization platform Securitize. The firm supports these clients with liquidity, risk management, and yield strategies tailored for global funds, corporates, and family offices.
CEO Melvin Deng noted that QCP’s strategy blends regulated market access with proprietary trading infrastructure. This combination allows the firm to serve institutions within the frameworks of MAS and ADGM, while maintaining around-the-clock coverage across spot markets, options trading, and structured products.
With crypto regulation maturing in major financial centers, QCP’s broader footprint allows it to meet growing institutional demand wherever it emerges.
