STS Digital Ltd., one of Bermuda’s leading regulated securities trading firms specializing in digital asset derivatives and structured products, today announced that it has been awarded Best Derivatives Trading Solution at the TradingTech Insight Awards USA 2026, hosted by A-Team Group.
The award was presented at the TradingTech Summit in New York and recognizes excellence in the technology, infrastructure, data and trading services that power modern capital markets. The TradingTech Insight Awards USA, now in its eighth year, recognizes vendors, platforms and service providers that deliver the technologies on which North American financial markets increasingly depend.
This recognition comes during a period of rapid growth and expansion for STS Digital, as institutional demand for sophisticated digital asset trading infrastructure accelerates. Over the past year, STS Digital has significantly expanded its platform capabilities, launched a market-first structured products platform, deepened its institutional partnerships, and strengthened its market infrastructure to support increasingly sophisticated digital asset trading strategies.
STS Digital offers institutional clients access to over 400 digital assets across spot, vanilla and exotic options, structured products and tailored derivatives strategies through a unified voice, UI and API trading infrastructure. The company’s market making operations now span over 30 centralized and decentralized locations while maintaining 24/7 liquidity provision and institutional execution standards.
“This award reflects the extraordinary work our team has done to create an infrastructure designed specifically for institutional participants entering digital assets. Institutions increasingly need more than just access to crypto markets. They need liquidity, sophisticated risk management, operational efficiencies, and infrastructure that reflects the standards expected of traditional finance. From structured products and options liquidity to integrated trading to custody and institutional market access, our goal has always been been creating solutions that enable professional participants to trade digital assets with confidence” – Maxime Seiler, CEO and co-founder of STS Digital.
This award follows several significant milestones for STS Digital, including a $30 million strategic funding round, the launch of its global structured products platform, the company becoming the first primary derivatives broker integrated into BitGo’s Go network for off-exchange settlement, and the continued expansion of institutional partnerships designed to improve market structure and capital efficiency.
“What unites the companies recognized here is less innovation than direction of travel. The companies recognized are those solving real market challenges around scalability, workflow efficiencies, interoperability and institutional adoption. STS Digital has distinguished itself by its ability to bring institutional-grade derivatives infrastructure to digital assets while combining sophisticated product capabilities with the operational standards expected by professional market participants. As digital assets continue to mature, companies that can seamlessly provide liquidity, risk management and execution quality through robust infrastructure will increasingly define the next generation of trading technology and STS Digital is a good example of this evolution – Andrew Delaney, President and Chief Content Officer at A-Team Group.
The winners of the TradingTech Insight Awards USA 2026 were selected through a combination of votes from the TradingTech Insight community and deliberations of an independent advisory board comprised of seasoned practitioners from the buying, selling and trading infrastructure communities.
As institutional adoption of digital assets continues to accelerate, this award shows that derivatives infrastructure will increasingly support market maturity, enabling participants to manage risk, unlock capital efficiency and access sophisticated investment strategies. STS Digital will continue to expand its infrastructure and product range to meet growing institutional demand globally.
