On-chain trading expands as GRVT integrates with CoinRoutes

GRVT Partners with CoinRoutes to Enhance Institutional Access to Decentralized Trading

GRVT, a self-custodial hybrid exchange, has recently announced its integration with CoinRoutes, a leading order execution management system, to facilitate institutional access to decentralized trading.

This strategic partnership aims to cater to the growing demand from institutional traders looking to execute on-chain trading strategies using CoinRoutes’ advanced trading infrastructure. As decentralized finance gains momentum, institutions are increasingly seeking secure and compliant trading environments.

The surge in institutional interest is evident from the substantial increase in spot trading volume on mainstream decentralized exchanges. In January 2025 alone, DEXs recorded a staggering $454.1 billion in trading volume, marking a 40% rise from the previous month.

Hybrid models like GRVT, which combine the security of self-custody with the efficiency of centralized exchanges, are becoming more popular among institutional players in the crypto space.

Through CoinRoutes’ platform, institutional traders can tap into GRVT’s liquidity pool and access a range of trading tools seamlessly. These tools include smart order routing, execution algorithms, transaction cost analysis, and cross-exchange arbitrage, enabling institutions to optimize trade execution and manage risk effectively.

Incentives for Institutional Adoption

To incentivize institutional adoption, GRVT and CoinRoutes are launching a two-phase incentive program. The first phase offers signup bonuses for new institutional users, while the second phase provides trading incentives and volume-based rebates to encourage high-frequency and large-scale trading activities.

Commenting on the partnership, GRVT co-founder and CEO Hong Yea emphasized the importance of offering secure and efficient DeFi trading solutions for institutional clients. He stated, “By leveraging our hybrid model in conjunction with CoinRoutes’ top-tier trading infrastructure, we are setting a new standard for institutions seeking compliant and efficient DeFi services.”

Similarly, CoinRoutes co-founder and CEO Ian Weisberger highlighted the necessity for institutions to access multiple trading venues through a unified platform equipped with sophisticated execution tools.
