Under the updated structure, security tokens will be supported natively on master accounts and standard trading sub-accounts, removing a layer of complexity that previously required new customers to use a separate Bitfinex Securities sub-account before they could begin trading. Existing Securities sub-accounts will be converted into regular trading sub-accounts, preserving all current balance segregation, log-in credentials, two-factor authentication (2FA) settings, and withdrawal permissions without interruption.
Customers will also gain the ability to transfer security tokens between sub-accounts and their master account, and security tokens will appear in Exchange wallets alongside other digital assets — simplifying portfolio visibility and management across the platform.
“This update reflects our commitment to making sophisticated financial products as accessible as possible,” said Jesse Knutson, Head of Operations at Bitfinex Securities. “By streamlining the account experience, we are removing barriers that previously stood between customers and a growing range of tokenised asset classes, including bonds and other regulated securities.”
Expanding Access To Alternative Asset Classes
The update is part of Bitfinex Securities’ broader mission to bring high quality financial instruments to a wider audience. Beyond cryptocurrencies, the platform offers access to tokenised bonds and other alternative asset classes — and this latest change makes that access easier than ever. Customers can now manage their entire portfolio, from digital assets to tokenised securities, through a single Bitfinex account.
Full verification and Securities verification remain mandatory requirements for trading security tokens, ensuring that all participants continue to meet applicable regulatory standards.
