Marex invests in Digital Prime to expand institutional crypto lending
Summary
Marex Group, a Nasdaq-listed financial services firm, has invested an undisclosed amount in Digital Prime Technologies to back institutional crypto infrastructure. The funding will help develop Tokenet, a digital asset lending and borrowing platform built with EquiLend, and reflects Marex’s push to expand its institutional digital assets business. Digital Prime recently said Tokenet had passed $1 billion in lending inventory and more than $1 billion in borrowing demand from launch partners such as Galaxy Digital and Ripple Prime. The move fits a broader trend of traditional finance firms investing in crypto market infrastructure, including areas like stablecoins and tokenized deposits.
