Zerocap

Family offices seeking exposure to digital assets face a structural problem: most crypto venues are built for retail or high-frequency traders, not for institutions that require insured custody, large-block execution, and dedicated relationship management. Zerocap positions itself specifically for this gap, operating as a sell-side flow desk with an explicit family office offering backed by an Australian Financial Services Licence, AUSTRAC registration, and a Lloyd's of London insurance policy covering custodied assets.

The family office proposition at Zerocap centers on three interconnected capabilities:

• OTC spot trading across 300+ digital assets with T+0 same-day settlement via chat, GUI, or API
• Institutional custody using multi-party computation (MPC) technology through the Fireblocks Network
• Access to crypto structured products including vanilla options, forwards, yield strategies, and bespoke structured notes

The firm's non-executive board includes Glenn Poswell, founder of Ellerston Capital, and Peter Edwards of the Victor Smorgon Group, both significant names in Australian institutional investment. That backing suggests the firm is oriented toward institutional credibility rather than retail volume, which aligns with its wholesale-only client qualification and dedicated relationship management model.

For family offices already allocating to digital assets, Zerocap offers a single venue for trading, custody, and structured product access with named account managers and in-house research analysts. The trade-off is concentration: all services sit within one provider, pricing is not publicly disclosed, and the offering is restricted to wholesale investors under Australian regulatory definitions. Family offices outside Australia or those requiring multi-custodian reporting integration will need to verify how Zerocap connects to their existing infrastructure before committing.
