Overview
The Spike Network is a neutral orchestration layer connecting regulated financial institutions, exchanges, infrastructure providers, and DLT networks.
It provides a technology-enabled environment for the transmission, routing, and coordination of instructions between network participants and market infrastructure providers across traditional financial systems and distributed ledger-based systems.
The network enables participants to coordinate value movement workflows through standardised interfaces and defined operational processes.
Spike does not hold funds or digital assets, execute transactions, or provide liquidity. All execution remains with regulated participants.
Participation
Institutions participate in the Spike Network by integrating within defined legal, operational, and technical frameworks.
The network is designed for regulated financial institutions, exchanges, and infrastructure providers supporting fiat and digital asset flows.
Participation enables access to network-defined structures for coordinating liquidity across connected institutions and systems.
Onboarding involves:
- initial engagement and qualification
- execution of participation agreements
- operational alignment with network frameworks
- technical integration with supported interfaces
Participation does not require transfer of custody, balance sheet exposure, or delegation of execution. All activities remain under the control of regulated participants.
Network Outcomes
The Spike Network enables participating institutions to operate within a consistent and coordinated environment for liquidity movement.
Coordinated Liquidity
Structured coordination of liquidity flows across institutions and defined corridors.
Standardised Integration
Consistent frameworks and interfaces reduce the need for bespoke integrations and enable predictable cross-institution workflows.
Network Access
Connectivity to banks, exchanges, and on/off-ramp providers within a unified operational environment.
Operational Control
Participants retain full control over accounts, execution, and compliance within their own environments.
Documentation
Organize the hub around the main operational domains so engineers, partners, and stakeholders can reach the right information in one click.
Core Network
Topology maps, routing design, IP plans, edge connectivity, and resiliency patterns.
Platform Services
DNS, DHCP, authentication, shared tooling, observability, and supporting internal services.
Security Controls
Access policy, segmentation, firewall standards, certificate handling, and audit guidance.
Delivery & Change
Implementation guides, release checklists, maintenance windows, rollback steps, and approvals.
