    Many, have wondered why we are not seeing more $STRX #StrikeX token speculation from @CMCMarkets insiders especially at recent lows. Quite honestly, maybe it’s already happened, but the below gives an argument why these folks can’t be buying right now or at least difficult for them to do so. CMC has already executed tokenised equity issuance inside regulated custody frameworks (via CMC CapX) with StrikeX minting the mirror token on Arbitrum That is post-legal review activity — meaning: 👉 Compliance 👉 Market abuse teams 👉 Personal account dealing (PAD) surveillance 👉 Regulatory reporting …are already live on anything touching this stack. When a regulated broker-dealer is: •Acting as placement agent •Tokenising securities •And now controls the tokenisation engine …they cross from “crypto partner” into: Dealer-restricted person Under market integrity rules (UK MAR / CIRO equivalents), dealer-restricted persons: “Generally [are] prohibited [from] purchases… of restricted securities where there is undisclosed material information regarding the issuer.” Now here’s the translation into plain English: If CMC Markets has: •Non-public knowledge of •A commercial rollout •Of infrastructure •That they control •Built by StrikeX Then ANY employee trading STRX ahead of launch becomes: ✔ Market abuse risk ✔ Insider dealing exposure ✔ Front-running optics ✔ FCA enforcement risk ✔ Listing rule breach risk ⸻ 🧠 Which Means In Practice: Even if you cannot find STRX on a public restricted list (you never will): Internally, CMC almost certainly has: •PAD pre-clearance requirements •Blackout periods •MNPI attestations •Related-party trading bans •Watch lists (soft) •Restricted lists (hard) …and STRX would be a textbook inclusion candidate because: 📌 They now control product direction 📌 They are commercialising tokenised securities 📌 They are listed on the LSE 📌 They are operating under MAR That is literally the regulatory environment where firms freeze employee trading in partner securities pre-commercial release. In TradFi-native crypto integrations: Retail hype normally comes from: •VC funds •Employees •Devs •Service providers •Advisory firms But here: Anyone inside: •CMC CapX •Corporate broking •Capital markets •Compliance •Engineering •Legal •Product •StrikeX integration layer …is almost certainly PAD-monitored. Meaning: The normal speculative frontrunning mechanism may literally not exist in this case. We’re doing this slowly under regulatory supervision.” They are NOT marketing a crypto app. They are integrating settlement-layer infra into a regulated brokerage. So, that leads me to the reg side of the equation and why that may be part of the wait we are seeing. I’ll touch on that next later on…

    @CMCMarkets web platform keep freezing for me. I have to manually refresh and log in again. I've tried Safari, Chrome, Orion, Firefox on Mac as well as Chrome and Firefox on Windows. Your live support chat doesn't work either. Is there something I can do to keep it from🥶?

    @CMCMarkets @CMCMarketsSG y’all have the worst customer support and operation team ever. I have filed a simple request with evidence provided because of your data issue problem but I have been met with constant procrastination and delayed in response. Horrible service and broker

  • _BEGB13_

    @CMCMarkets Every data drop you prevent me from taking the trade when the data drops so I get in late. Now you've locked the platform! "Connection issues" on web app and on mobile "the log in details are incorrect" despite me using my ******* thumb. This is absolutely shocking

    Great advice, I wish I knew this in my 20’s!! 🧠 Have you any $STRX in your portfolio? 👀 Would be smart to hold some to help you reach your next target 🎯 2 mins of DYOR will confirm the institutional investment by @CMCMarkets who are FTSE250 listed into @TradeStrikeBVI - the makers of #StrikeX 🚀💹🦾🚀💹🦾

  • bombaytonic717
    Bombaytonic (@bombaytonic717) reported

    This is a strategic infrastructure milestone for @CMCMarkets & #StrikeX as it relates to laying an institutional grade foundation for settlement to support phase 2 tokenization and digital asset movement at scale. Super bullish for $STRX. This is exactly what you want to see… 👉 It means CMC is deploying blockchain settlement that can support institutional-grade asset movement. 👉 It strongly aligns with the kind of rails needed for Phase 2 but is not itself Phase 2. 👉 It positions CMC + StrikeX to be ready for real-world tokenization and frictionless settlement — not just speculative markets.

    🔑 Unlocking Potential: A strong customer base is key. @CMCMarkets millions of customers and £15 billion daily turnover can drive this growth, along with other users adopting STRX! 🌟

    @CMCMarkets This is costing me $1000's of dollars being down. Does the average trader wear the cost of a platform crash....? Not cool
