The tie-up with Keyrock, which is based in Brussels, “helps provide our clients with deeper liquidity as the institutional adoption of digital assets continues to grow,” said Frank van Zegveld, head of Europe, Middle East and African sales at Talos.
Talos announced three key hires in September as part of its global expansion, including van Zegveld.
Keyrock raised $72 million in a Series B funding round that closed last September. The round included investments from cross-border payments company Ripple and SIX FinTech Ventures – the investment arm of Swiss exchange SIX Group. Talos raised $105 million in a Series B funding round last May that included investments from Wall Street giants Citigroup (C), Wells Fargo (WFC) and BNY Mellon (BK).
In February, Talos announced a deal with London-based crypto-services provider BCB Group to provide the customers of both firms with access to a wide range of trading services.

Stablecoin Adoption Is ‘Exploding' — Here's Why Wall Street Is Going All-In
Alchemy co-founder and president Joe Lau said stablecoin adoption is exploding as banks, fintechs and payment platforms push beyond the USDT/USDC exchange era.
What to know:
- Stablecoin usage is quickly broadening from crypto-native exchanges into payments, payroll and treasury as companies chase 24/7, digital-native settlement, according to Alchemy Co-founder and President Joe Lau.
- Banks are pushing tokenized deposits as a regulated, bank-native alternative that delivers stablecoin-like benefits for institutional clients.
- The endgame is a two-track system — stablecoins for open, two-party settlement; deposit tokens for bank ecosystems, until scale forces convergence and competition, Lau said.
