Velotrade, founded by former institutional traders from JP Morgan, Dresdner Kleinwort and Bank of America, launched its prop trading platform focused exclusively on cryptocurrencies. The announcement was made from Hong Kong, where Velotrade Re Limited operates, an entity incorporated in November 2025.
The firm offers funded accounts ranging from $5,000 to $200,000, with competitive profit splits and payouts processed within 24 hours in USDC or USDT. Traders can request their first withdrawal after 14 calendar days.
The business model sets itself apart from most firms in the sector, which rely primarily on challenge fee revenues. Velotrade uses institutional liquidity bridges and AI-driven hedging to replicate the positions of selected traders in live markets. Its revenues are tied to the performance of funded traders, not to their failures.
The ruleset was designed specifically for cryptocurrencies, discarding rules inherited from the forex market: no consistency restrictions apply, no time limits are imposed on evaluations, and the platform allows trading during market events and building positions over weekends.
Its predecessor entity, Velotrade Management Limited, operates a trade finance platform that has distributed over $2.5 billion to clients worldwide since 2016.
