How does adding new crypto (listing) to Bitvavo work?

Summary
This article describes the process of adding new crypto to Bitvavo. It includes two phases: deposits/withdrawals and regular trading. Each phase is detailed below.

 

Phases of adding new crypto (listing)

Deposits & Withdrawals:

Bitvavo opens deposits and withdrawals for the new crypto. You can then send the new crypto to and from your Bitvavo account. During this phase, trading is not yet available.

Regular Trading:

Once the asset is fully listed, it transitions to regular trading. In the UK, trading is executed exclusively using 'Price Guarantee' (RFQ) orders. Limit orders, market orders, and central limit order book access are not available.
