Crypto prime broker FalconX acquires blockchain connectivity co bloXroute
California based institutional digital asset prime broker FalconX has announced that it has acquired bloXroute, a leader in blockchain trading and networking technology, to extend its platform in support of tokenized assets and onchain capital markets.
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
In 2026, FalconX expanded its client-facing trading business across oil, gold, silver, compute, and tokenized equities, broadening institutional access to a growing range of onchain markets. As more financial assets move onchain, institutions need infrastructure that supports 24/7 trading, capital efficiency, and risk management across markets. FalconX is building the platform for this new market structure.
By combining bloXroute’s blockchain networking infrastructure with FalconX’s institutional trading platform, the company will enhance the speed and efficiency of onchain execution while accelerating the development of new trading, financing, and prime brokerage capabilities. The acquisition also strengthens FalconX’s ability to support institutional clients as tokenized markets continue to expand across traditional and digital assets.
Raghu Yarlagadda, CEO and Co-Founder of FalconX said,
“We believe the future of capital markets will be onchain. As onchain and traditional markets continue to converge, institutions will need a single platform built for both. bloXroute strengthens our platform and accelerates our ability to build the products and services institutions will rely on as markets evolve.”
Uri Klarman, CEO and Co-Founder of bloXroute said,
“As institutional activity moves onchain, connectivity becomes as important as execution and liquidity. Joining FalconX allows us to build new trading and prime brokerage products that will benefit from FalconX’s global distribution and regulatory infrastructure.”
The acquisition advances FalconX’s long-term strategy of building the infrastructure institutions need as financial markets become increasingly digital and interconnected. FalconX will continue investing in the capabilities that support tokenization and the continued evolution of onchain capital markets.
