STS Digital Unveils First-to-Market Structured Products Platform, Partnering with Kraken

Hamilton, Bermuda - March 2026 - STS Digital, one of the world’s leading principal derivatives trading firms, today announced the pioneering launch of its global Structured Products platform aimed at banks, institutional investors,  family offices, external asset managers (EAMs), and high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) seeking advanced, risk-managed exposure to digital assets.

The new platform provides institutional-grade liquidity for a subset of the 400 digital asset tokens including altcoins, targeting a growing segment of the digital assets market as the majority of trading activity remains concentrated in major assets.

Investors are now able to access a comprehensive range of solutions including:

• Yield Enhancement Strategies: STS Digital unlocks options-based income solutions to deliver yield opportunities that outpace conventional crypto staking and basis trades.
• Capital Protection & Participation: Structured products allow investors to preserve principal and buffered notes while gaining asymmetrical returns.
• Bespoke Structuring Expertise: STS Digital provides tailored exposure to specific return objectives while benefiting from institutional-grade structuring and execution.
• Professional and Regulated Operating Framework: Operating under a Bermuda DABA issued M License, STS Digital delivers the highest standards of security, transparency and legal oversight for institutions.

“This launch marks a significant advancement in expanding our institutional access to sophisticated digital asset investment solutions. Our trading platform offers an unparalleled breadth of assets, spanning both leading cryptocurrencies and a diverse range of altcoins, enabling institutions to invest with greater flexibility, precision, and strategic control. This framework enables us to partner with institutions as they expand and refine their digital asset capabilities.”

— Jeremy Dominh, Head of Structured Products, STS Digital

First Partnership

Earlier this month, Kraken launched Dual Investment, a new offering that enables eligible clients to earn fixed returns on Bitcoin or Ether, with payouts available in-kind or in USD. Kraken is leveraging STS Digital’s yield enhancement capabilities and derivatives expertise, Dual Investment expands access to advanced income strategies for a broader range of investors.

“We are pleased to combine our derivatives expertise with Kraken’s distribution. This launch marks an important milestone for STS Digital as we expand our offering and deepen our collaboration with Kraken. Our alignment enables partners to bring options and structured products to their clients with instant access to liquidity, supported by broad token coverage, deep product breadth, and consistent liquidity.”

— Maxime Seiler, CEO, STS Digital

“Partnering with STS to bring structured strategies like covered calls to our platform strengthens our growing suite of derivatives solutions and gives clients a new way to generate return that’s distinct from traditional crypto approaches like staking or lending. This collaboration reflects our commitment to offering flexible, innovative products that help clients engage with digital assets in more sophisticated ways.”

— Alexia Theodorou, Director of Derivatives, Kraken
