BTC.sx, the world’s first bitcoin-only trading platform, announced today it has integrated its trading platform with the global bitcoin exchange itBit, which has locations in Singapore and New York. The partnership with itBit expands BTC.sx’s presence globally.

“We are extremely excited about partnering with such a reliable and high quality exchange as itBit,” said Joe Lee, co-founder and CEO of BTC.sx. “itBit's diligence with regulatory compliance brings an unmatched level of professionalism to the growing bitcoin sector. Working with itBit helps us diversify our product offerings to serve a growing global customer base who seek an easy to use trading platform.”

The partnership introduces itBit's BTC-USD currency pair and growing liquidity to the easy-to-use BTC.sx trading platform. Deeper integration of additional product offerings is planned for the future.

"We have a lot of respect for the way BTC.sx understands bitcoin traders and serves their needs," said Antony Lewis, Director of Business Development at itBit. "They offer a solid, feature-rich and easy-to-use platform and we are very glad to be working together."

Recently it has been noted that China has become the most active bitcoin trading market overtaking other world regions for the first time. To serve this market, BTC.sx expanded its Asia presence in July and launched its language-localised service in five languages, two of which are dedicated to the Chinese market: Simplified Chinese (China) and Traditional Chinese (Hong Kong). Partnering with itBit, with its well-established presence in Singapore, will further help BTC.sx to address markets in Asia.

In the last 12 months, BTC.sx clients have traded over US$50 million out to market. The team consists of finance and investment banking professionals and includes the recent hire of ex Deutsche Bank Vice President, Colin Kwan.
