Talos: digital-asset execution, brokerage technology and Coin Metrics data

Talos supplies institutional software for digital-asset execution, liquidity aggregation, brokerage front ends and portfolio operations. Its Coin Metrics business adds market and blockchain data. Clients arrange trading, credit and custody relationships separately from the core software subscription.

Services and operating roles

Sections ↑

Talos Trading Platform combines order management and execution tools for institutional digital assets. It aggregates exchange and OTC prices, compares pre-funded balances with streaming liquidity and routes within funding constraints while accounting for fees. The platform brings those fragmented relationships into one workflow.[2]

Specifications01

Product responsibilities

Product responsibilities
OfferingPractical scope
White LabelA hosted brokerage front end with customer APIs, tailored pricing and trade records. The broker controls its customer relationship.Source 3
Portfolio and riskConsolidates spot, fiat, futures, perpetuals and options. Portfolio views include greeks, fund/strategy PnL, historical base-currency analysis and configurable pricing inputs.Source 5
Treasury and settlementMonitors credit, balances and unsettled positions; initiates supported custodian transfers and reconciles activity. The software offering does not itself hold or transmit customer funds.Source 4
Coin MetricsMarket and blockchain datasets, reference prices, indexes and classification tools sit alongside the execution software.Source 9

Talos supports both institutional trading desks and broker distribution. The FAQ lists crypto spot, futures, perpetuals, options and spot FX. Availability depends on the connected product and the client’s eligibility.[7]

Connectivity, routing and data delivery

Sections ↑

Platform integrations use FIX, REST or WebSocket. Clients can submit their own algorithmic orders through the APIs; the detailed platform documentation is provided during onboarding.[7]

Specifications02

Execution controls described for institutions

Execution controls described for institutions
MechanismEffect
Full Amount / Post OnlyOne venue for the entire quantity at the limit / passive-only order working.Source 6
TWAP / POVTime scheduling / participation linked to market volume; neither guarantees a fill.Source 6
ProtectionReference-price, parent/child quantity and duplicate-order checks.Source 6
RecoveryReconciles orders after disruption; throttles requests for venue-specific limits.Source 6

The provider network includes exchanges, OTC desks, prime brokers, custodians and post-trade services. FastLane offers cloud colocation and direct-connect options for eligible integrations. These are connectivity arrangements; their public description gives no universal end-to-end latency commitment.[8]

The 15 October 2026 OKX integration article explicitly describes options trading as live, covering linear and inverse contracts, market data and execution. This extends the separately documented Deribit integration; a connection still requires the relevant venue relationship and product eligibility.[12]

Coin Metrics Market Data Feed carries trades, quotes, order books, candles and derivative fields including funding, open interest, liquidations and greeks through REST and WebSocket. Network Data Pro instead aggregates blockchain activity such as supply, addresses, mining, transactions and fees.[10][11]

Specifications03

Coin Metrics retrieval and export

Coin Metrics retrieval and export
TaskDocumented mechanism
Bulk retrievalThe guide recommends compressed responses and line-delimited JSON where supported. Default JSON pagination starts at 100 records; the documented page-size maximum is 10,000.Source 23
CSV / JSON filesHTTP format parameters and Python export methods produce files. The export guide permits ten parallel connections per API key; excess connections queue and bandwidth is shared.Source 22
Service endpointsPaid HTTP and WebSocket endpoints use api.coinmetrics.io/v4; community HTTP uses community-api.coinmetrics.io/v4 without an API key.Source 24

Pricing and data-licence charges

Sections ↑

Talos does not publish a standard numerical OEMS or White Label subscription tariff in the inspected product material. The service configuration and connected counterparties therefore form part of the commercial discussion; an aggregated price is not an all-in Talos brokerage commission.[3]

Specifications04

Coin Metrics Master Terms — data contract

Coin Metrics Master Terms — data contract
ItemDefault condition
BillingOrder-form amounts in USD; billed in advance, payable within 30 days of invoice unless otherwise specified.Source 17
Late paymentLesser of 1.5% monthly or the legal maximum, prorated daily.Source 17
Third-party costsPass-through on 30 days’ notice; an exchange feed can be removed to avoid its new charge.Source 17

Community data is free under the linked CC BY-NC 4.0 licence, rather than an unrestricted commercial feed. It includes limited datasets and history: Atlas covers selected assets over 30 days; granular reference rates are limited to seven data points. The documented request limit is ten per six-second sliding window per IP address.[25]

Implementation and operational setup

Sections ↑

Talos says a straightforward setup can take as little as two days, while customised integration can take two weeks or longer. These are conditional supplier estimates. Sandbox access depends on the integration, and clients receive API documentation and knowledge-base access during onboarding.[7]

Specifications05

Broker and treasury configuration

Broker and treasury configuration
AreaOperating detail
Customer pricingWhite Label supports customer/instrument-specific spread, skew and volatility leniency.Source 3
Hedging and bookingRiskless-principal mode hedges before booking the customer trade, using configured client/symbol and liquidity-provider rules.Source 3
Permissions and reconciliationTreasury subaccounts can have distinct permissions, markets and limits. Allocations can use percentages or crypto/counter-currency amounts.Source 4
Operational exportsOrders, trades, positions and balances can be exported through the UI or APIs.Source 4

The Principal UI DPA’s safeguards, framed by commercially reasonable efforts, include MFA, encryption in transit and at rest, access logging and continuous security-alert escalation. Its appendix also specifies annual external penetration testing and remediation of critical/high findings within 30 days. These are contractual commitments, not independently tested results.[19]

Support and official contacts

Sections ↑

Talos publishes 24/7 platform support and access to release information and the knowledge base. A numerical incident-response or restoration SLA was not established in the inspected material.[7]

The export guide notes that spreadsheet-based API queries can expose a key to anyone who can read the sheet or assembled URL. Keep access to that credential aligned with the underlying data entitlement; exporting a file does not expand its licence.[22]

Contracting entities and eligibility

Sections ↑

Talos Global, Inc. is the holding company; Talos Trading, LLC supplies software. Clients independently negotiate liquidity, credit and custody arrangements, and Talos is not a party to those bilateral relationships. Separately regulated affiliates require their own eligibility review, onboarding and contracts; they are not included with the software.[1]

The published UK communication is restricted to the high-net-worth company, association and trust categories under Article 49. The inspected disclosure does not identify the separately licensed affiliates sufficiently to verify activity-specific permissions here.[1]

The trading page generally restricts derivative integrations to institutional non-US persons located outside the US, with enhanced eligibility review possible. White Label explicitly excludes the provision of licences, registrations and KYC/AML compliance: the deploying broker remains responsible for that operating framework.[2][3]

Company development and acquired businesses

Sections ↑

Anton Katz and Ethan Feldman founded Talos in 2018. Its timeline records a USD 105 million Series B in May 2022 and the acquisition of D3X Systems in May 2023, adding portfolio-engineering capabilities.[14]

Talos lists its headquarters at 300 Park Avenue South in New York, with offices in London, Singapore and Cyprus. The commercial contact routes cover this software and data business.[21]

The current Coin Metrics spotlight states that the acquisition is complete and Coin Metrics is now part of Talos. Its data services retain specific technical documentation and contract terms, which matters for licensing, billing and support.[15]

Talos also acquired technology developed by Skolem for institutional DeFi trading and management. The spotlight describes incorporation of DeFi access, on-chain monitoring and back-office accounting as work being built into the combined PMS/OEMS; that wording does not establish every proposed capability as live.[16]

Additional information

Sections ↑

The OEMS advertises multi-dealer RFQ, RFS and ESP.[2]

The dedicated RFQ Platform page is still labelled coming soon, including planned loans, repos and forwards. That product-specific availability label needs to be distinguished from the existing OEMS integration when agreeing scope.[13]

Specifications06

Data use and exit distinctions

Data use and exit distinctions
DocumentMaterial condition
Coin Metrics licenceInternal use only; default terms prohibit using the services/data with AI systems, including training or generating output. The order form prevails.Source 17
Coin Metrics exitLicence ends immediately; expunge data, subject to legal retention. Early exit accelerates remaining-term fees, except customer termination for cause or supplier discontinuance under §3.3.Source 17
White Label DPATalos is a processor. End-of-service deletion has backup/archive and legal-retention exceptions. The DPA permits internal service improvement and de-identified business use.Source 18
Principal UI DPATalos is an independent controller. Processing and retention follow its privacy notice rather than the White Label deletion provision.Source 19

The data contract also allows ordinary service discontinuance across a geography on 90 days’ written notice. Regulatory or third-party changes have separate notice provisions. A qualifying detrimental change gives the customer 30 days from the supplier’s notice to terminate the affected service, with unused prepaid fees refunded proportionately.[17]

The September 2025 privacy notice retains personal information according to service needs, legal obligations and claims, without a single fixed period. It excludes information processed solely on a client’s behalf. Those personal-data provisions should therefore be read in the correct service role rather than treated as a deadline for migrating an entire trading database.[20]
