For individuals holding significant crypto positions. A dedicated senior broker handles execution and custody, with OTC for large trades and real discretion.
When the position is large, the things that didn’t matter at retail scale suddenly do. A public order book moves when you trade. A support chatbot doesn’t know who you are. And putting significant capital through a self-serve platform means you carry the custody risk, the execution risk and the discretion risk yourself.
Uptrade works the way private banking works: a dedicated senior broker who knows you and your holdings, execution handled discreetly, larger trades routed through OTC, and assets in institutional custody. More onwhy a broker beats a self-serve platform.
Significant holdings deserve more than a dashboard. They deserve someone who picks up the phone, knows your situation without you re-explaining it, and treats your business with discretion.
Your broker executes on your behalf, routes size through OTC so large orders settle privately, away from the public order book, and keeps your assets in institutional custody. With private clients, the relationship is the product.
