The iFX Cyprus 2025 Expo closed on a high note, marked by strong engagement from the global forex and fintech community. As an exhibitor, Cregis was honored to connect with industry leaders, brokers, and institutions exploring the next phase of forex and digital asset integration.
Why Cregis Participated in iFX Cyprus 2025
“We saw iFX Cyprus as a timely opportunity to connect with forex companies at a key turning point,” said Richard, Head of Business Development for UAE at Cregis. “Many in the industry are now exploring how to integrate digital assets, and we were there to show how our infrastructure can support that transition. It’s rare to have so many decision-makers in one place, all facing the same challenge—and ready to act.”
The Forex-Crypto Convergence: A Trend We Can’t Ignore
The forex industry is experiencing a fundamental shift. Traditional forex brokers are increasingly recognizing that their clients—particularly younger, tech-savvy traders—expect access to cryptocurrency trading alongside traditional currency pairs.
During our time at iFX Cyprus, we observed several key trends:
- Multi-Asset Trading Platforms：Brokers are moving beyond forex-only offerings to provide comprehensive trading experiences
- Stablecoin Payment Rails：Forward-thinking forex companies are exploring stablecoins as a more efficient settlement mechanism
Web3 Adoption Challenges and Infrastructure Decision
“What stood out most at iFX Cyprus were the honest conversations with potential partners,” said Richard, Co-Founder and UAE Director of Cregis. “These weren’t abstract ideas—they were real operational roadblocks slowing innovation.” The challenges were consistent: concerns about asset custody and security, unclear regulatory frameworks between crypto and FX, high integration costs, and the complexity of building reliable infrastructure. “Many businesses are ready to take the next step,” Richard noted. “But they need solutions that are practical, scalable, and secure. Quick fixes may offer speed, but they often create bigger problems down the line. At Cregis, we help companies build the right foundation from day one.”
The Cregis Advantage for Web3 Adoption
Cregis provides a modular infrastructure stack featuring self-custodial MPC Wallets, Wallet-as-a-Service APIs, and a Crypto Payment Engine. Businesses can start fast and scale on demand—adding tools like fund automation, AML screening, crypto cards, or TronGas optimization.
Fast Onboarding
Cregis aims to make Web3 adoption as seamless as possible by offering a clear, intuitive interface and developer-friendly tools that require no prior blockchain experience. Cregia also works closely with each client to ensure the setup aligns with their goals—providing flexibility and support without adding unnecessary complexity.
Business Flow Alignment
Cregis fits into your business, not the other way around. Companies can adopt Web3 capabilities without disrupting operations or retraining teams. We keep the infrastructure discreet, so you can focus on what matters most.
Enhanced Security
With Self-Custodial MPC technology and multi-layered protection, Cregis offers institutional-grade security without compromise. From key management to transaction screening, we take every measure seriously to help safeguard your operations.
Crypto Payments Set the Stage for the Future of Forex
”We’re seeing a real shift in how forex platforms think about payments,” Richard observed. “Stablecoins are no longer just trading instruments—they’re becoming the foundation for faster, more efficient cross-border settlements.” At iFX Cyprus, it became clear that the convergence between forex and crypto isn’t a future concept—it’s happening now.
Cregis’s Crypto Payment Engine is built for this evolving landscape, enabling stablecoin settlements, smart contract-based payments, and seamless integration between crypto and traditional systems. “The companies that act early will gain a competitive edge,” Richard concluded. “But moving first doesn’t mean moving recklessly—it means choosing infrastructure partners who understand both the risks and the road ahead.”
Cregis will be continuing the conversation at upcoming industry events throughout 2025, including Malaysia Blockchain Week, TOKEN2049 Singapore, and Forex Expo Dubai.
