BCB Group & Zodia Markets launch instant settlement and institutional liquidity via BLINC Network integration
Wednesday 11th February 2026, London: BCB Group and Zodia Markets today announced the successful go-live of Zodia Market’s integration onto BCB’s BLINC Network. BLINC (The BCB Liquidity Interchange Network Consortium) is BCB Group’s proprietary instant payments network, offering instant, reliable, 24/7/365 and limitless settlement for the BCB client ecosystem, which includes exchanges, industry-leading liquidity and FX providers, stablecoin issuers, traders, funds and brokers worldwide. By providing real-time liquidity control and efficient capital movement, this partnership bridges the gap between traditional fiat infrastructure and institutional digital asset liquidity for shared clients of BCB and Zodia Markets.
The integration delivers significant benefits for the shared client base, enabling real time multi-currency trading settlement and treasury management. Clients can use BLINC’s instant settlement capabilities along with BCB’s wider suite of banking and payments products to access Zodia Markets’ institutional-grade liquidity with improved speed and competitive pricing.
The connectivity also establishes Zodia Markets as a key liquidity provider to BCB’s OTC trading desk, supporting BCB’s strategy to deepen in-house execution and reduce reliance on external venues for stablecoin and digital asset flows. With BLINC Network users volume now exceeding $500 million a day, this integration enables a greater share of this activity to be serviced instantly through BCB.
Adam Parnell, Partnerships and Client Solutions Manager, Zodia Markets comments,
“The go-live of our BLINC Network integration is a significant step forward for institutional digital asset trading. It immediately positions us as a primary liquidity provider for BCB’s OTC desk, giving our mutual clients access to instant, competitively-priced settlement. This infrastructure is critical for converting the vast daily flow of funds currently moving off-platform back in-house.”
Tim Renew, CEO, BCB Group, comments,
“This integration is a game-changer for our institutional clients. By bringing together BCB’s trusted global banking and payments network with Zodia Markets’ institutional-grade digital asset liquidity, we are directly addressing market needs for faster settlement, deeper liquidity and a truly integrated on-and off-ramp experience across traditional and digital financial rails. This is a critical strategic move that strengthens our core execution capabilities and solidifies our commitment to leading the institutional digital asset space.”
The partnership is expected to broaden further with the planned launch of AED rails by BCB in the coming months, responding to strong client demand for additional regional settlement options and enhanced access to Middle East corridors.
