Recently, several popular cryptocurrencies have shown notable movements worth paying attention to. ZEC, TRX, and XRP, which all perform well in the futures market, are closely watched by institutional traders — after all, they each represent different application directions such as privacy, smart contracts, and cross-chain payments.

Interestingly, actions from institutional players are becoming more frequent. Recently, a certain on-chain derivatives platform welcomed the addition of a well-known institutional trader, and the cooperation aims to bring more institutional-level liquidity to the platform. What does this mean? In simple terms, more and more professional traders and institutions are starting to focus on the on-chain derivatives market, rather than just traditional exchanges.

This trend reflects a phenomenon: institutional investors are gradually exploring the depth and efficiency of on-chain trading. As liquidity increases, the experience and cost competitiveness of futures trading will become more attractive. For ordinary traders, the influx of institutions often means increased market participation and greater volatility opportunities.
