Blue Helix secured $15 million in funding from Huobi Global, OKCoin, Genesis Capital, Node Capital, City Holdings, and Yintai Investment. The company operates BHEX Exchange, a decentralized platform for custody and clearing of digital assets.
BHEX launches at month's end. The platform pairs buyers and sellers when prices align, and Blue Helix argues this solves a critical flaw in centralized exchanges: they control customer funds, which creates security risks and undermines trust.

Over 70 investors sought involvement in Blue Helix's Token Fund. The company selected 40 for its first round of strategic investment.
Founder and CEO James Ju said that "Bluehelix technology will be an open source project after it has been completely developed, it will be supported by decentralised cryptographic algorithms, blockchain technology, and the innovative Bluehelix technology."
The platform lets centralized exchanges adopt the safeguards of decentralized systems without burdening users with private key management. Blue Helix calls this the BHPOS consensus mechanism. The architecture addresses the key holder problem by giving users control over their assets while maintaining the operational efficiency of a centralized exchange.
The system works through multiple security layers. It records transactions on blockchains. Wallets split between cold storage and hot access. Multi-signature requirements protect assets. The community verifies all clearing operations. Users settle peer-to-peer.
Custody infrastructure matters in crypto. Coinbase built an institutional-grade custody service. Fidelity Investments launched custody offerings for Bitcoin and Ethereum. Blue Helix enters this space with an approach that blends the security of blockchains with the ease of use customers expect from centralized platforms.
