Joshua Greenwald who spent more than a decade as a trader prior to his stint at SpaceX, announces his move to launch LXDX,  a cryptocurrency exchange that seeks to make the nascent asset class more accessible to institutional investors while also providing individual investors with professional-grade trading tools.

LXDX has received funding from firms such as the venture arm of Dymon Asia Capital, a $4.9 billion investment group based out of Singapore.

Joshua and his other founder partners have opted to set up LXDX in the Republic of Malta, a cryptocurrency-friendly jurisdiction which has recently created an ad hoc regulatory regime governing the cryptocurrency and blockchain industry.

In Malta LXDX will be in the company of a number of exchange heavyweights, including OKEx, Binance, and ZB.com.

DF Advocates are proud to announce that they have been appointed as LXDX local legal counsel with the brief to advice and assist on all legal and regulatory matters relating to the setting up and licensing of the crypto exchange.
