- IOTA is now available on Bullish, making it available to institutional investors.
- The listing is intended to give professional investors access to IOTA through compliant trading, deep liquidity and segregated custody.
IOTA has been available on Bullish since yesterday, March 2nd. Like the IOTA Foundation in one Press release explained, this is not just another stock exchange listing, but a step towards regulated institutional market infrastructure. The focus is on institutional trading, custody and global access for the IOTA token. The notice states:
“Bullish integrates a powerful central order book matching system with automated market making to ensure high and predictable liquidity. This integration opens up the opportunity for institutional investors to participate in the IOTA ecosystem and benefit from a platform that combines regulated infrastructure with high liquidity.”
Why listing is important for IOTA
The listing is therefore clearly aimed at professional market participants. The IOTA Foundation emphasizes that the listing addresses two core requirements of institutional investors: compliant execution and secure, segregated storage.
Another important point is the regulatory profile of the exchange. Bullish went public on the New York Stock Exchange in 2025, making it one of a small number of crypto platforms listed in the US.
Bullish also has an international presence. Bullish is regulated in the US, Hong Kong and Gibraltar, while Bullish Europe operates under MiCAR as a spot trading and crypto asset custody provider. Dominik Schiener, co-founder and chairman of the IOTA Foundation, was pleased with the news:
“Expanding access to professional and institutional participants strengthens our ecosystem and lays the foundation for long-term growth. Reaching the global market with compliant infrastructure is a significant step forward for IOTA. The integration on Bullish Exchange is a milestone that our community can celebrate together.”
It is noteworthy that the custody of IOTA is taken over by Bitgo. As CNF reported, the IOTA Foundation and Bitgo partnered in December last year to enable institutional custody.
Bullish also points to its trading and security architecture. The platform processed an average of more than $2 billion in daily volume in 2025 and has achieved a cumulative trading volume of over $1.8 trillion since launch.
It is also said that Bullish uses a system of cold, warm and hot wallets to balance security and transaction speed. Chris Tyrer, President of Bullish Exchange, explains in the press release:
“We are pleased to welcome IOTA to the Bullish Exchange and thus expand the range of high-quality digital assets for our institutional customers. Bullish’s deep liquidity and our sophisticated, compliant trading environment offer institutions the ideal access to access the IOTA token. This gives them an infrastructure through which they can actively engage with the asset.”
