Anchorage Digital Settlement

Atlas: Where institutions mitigate counterparty risk

Atlas is more than just crypto settlement. It’s the infrastructure layer institutions use to move capital, manage risk, and operate across asset classes—with on-chain settlement and collateral workflows that reduce counterparty, delivery, and bankruptcy exposure. Join the only crypto settlement network offered by a federally chartered bank, Anchorage Digital Bank.

An unparalleled settlement offering

Atlas couples the safety of traditional settlement with the benefits of digital asset technology so institutions can fully separate settlement and execution concerns through on-chain settlement. Rapidly settle spot OTC trades with reduced counterparty risk, or streamline more complex settlement and collateral workflows for your external transactions—which may include derivatives, margin trading, and loan origination—to ensure accuracy and transparency across your settlement requirements.

Collateral management for 24/7 peace of mind

Atlas powers collateral management across a range of institutional workflows. Whether you're securing financing, supporting margin requirements, or optimizing capital efficiency, Atlas gives you full visibility and control. Assets remain on-chain, segregated, and bankruptcy-remote—enabling you to pledge and release collateral in real time without it leaving custody.

Tri-party solutions

Atlas also enables institutions to minimize counterparty risk through tri-party solutions. Collateral is held in a segregated vault, and the secured party maintains a transparent view of collateral in which the pledgor is granting a security interest.
