Crypto broker Voyager doubles AUM in Nov-Dec
Publicly traded cryptocurrency broker Voyager Digital (CSE:VYGR, OTCQB:VYGVF, FRA:UCD2) has announced what it calls milestone growth, surpassing $200 million in assets under management (AUM) – up 100% from $100 million at the beginning of November, and up 40x in the past 12 months.
The company said that this accelerated growth in AUM has been led by unprecedented levels of net daily deposits, with over $50 million in total net daily deposits since the beginning of November, and averaging nearly $1 million of average net daily deposits for this same period.
Steve Ehrlich, Co-founder and CEO of Voyager said:
“Voyager is firing on all cylinders as we enter 2021. The rapid pace of increase in net daily deposits is a testament to the success of our platform and the support from our community. AUM is a key metric for the performance of our business, and we are excited that users have placed their trust in our platform which allows us to generate greater returns and thereby reinvest to bring new products to market faster, including our desktop platform, debit and credit cards, and margin offerings.”
2020 has been a milestone year for the crypto-asset space with many well-known institutions either diversifying into Bitcoin or providing greater access to digital assets. The company said it believes this continued momentum confirms that digital assets are a legitimate, standalone and investable asset class that is here to stay, providing investors with the ability to combat inflationary pressures from continued debasement of traditional fiat currencies. This evidence suggests that digital assets are starting to rival more established asset classes such as equities, fixed income, commodities and precious metals, in particular the $9 trillion traditional gold market.
“We’ve positioned Voyager with a leverageable technology platform ripe for expansion both internationally and product wise, with Canadian and European expansion planned in 2021,” continued Mr. Ehrlich. “We look forward to bringing Voyager’s regulatorily compliant and transparent platform to the masses in 2021.”
Voyager’s desktop platform is now in beta mode. The desktop offers investors the ability to trade the full suite of Voyager’s 55 digital assets, 22 of which bear interest, with charting, research and trading tools. The Voyager App is available for Android and iPhone.
