Introduction to Phemex
Phemex is a cryptocurrency platform that was founded in 2019 by eight former Morgan Stanley Executives. Phemex focuses on a “User Oriented” approach to improve their platform so that traders can easily buy & sell contracts with trust. Phemex allows crypto trading backed by crypto assets and traditional financial assets, such as stock indexes and interest rates.
Phemex also designed their own Hierarchical Deterministic Cold Wallet System. It gives each user a unique deposit address, so that assets are kept in cold wallets (offline crypto storage). Collection and transferring of Bitcoin are all conducted via offline signature with double checking done by the Phemex staff. This allows for funds and transactions to be privately, securely managed .
