Moomoo serves more than 30 million investors globally and offers products across several asset classes. Its US platform provides cryptocurrency trading alongside its wider investment offering.

Crossover said the integration will give Moomoo access to its liquidity aggregation and Smart Order Matching technology for digital assets.
