Digital asset desk
Vellum is a timed-position desk for crypto, equities, currencies and metals. One USDT balance, a ticket you can read at a glance, and a paper ledger to practise on before you fund anything.
How it works
01
Check the address, set a name and password, then confirm the inbox. Google works the same way.
02
A paper ledger is ready immediately. The ticket, marks and statements behave like live — without funding.
03
Pick a market, a direction and a horizon. The desk holds one open position per ledger so exposure stays readable.
04
Record a deposit, wait for confirmation, flip to the live ledger. Withdrawals stay reviewed before they broadcast.
Live marks with 24-hour change and volume. Tap any row to open its ticket.
Choose a direction and a horizon between 30 seconds and 10 minutes. The ticket shows your stake, the mark you entered at, and when it settles — no leverage dials to misread.
Crypto, listed equities, currency pairs and metals all quote against the same USDT balance, so you never juggle sub-accounts to move between them.
Every account opens with a paper ledger that behaves exactly like the live one. Rehearse the ticket, then flip the header switch when you are ready to fund.
Coverage
Move between crypto, listed names, currency pairs and metals without opening another account. The ticket and the statement stay the same.
Majors and liquid alts against USDT, with the same ticket you use for metals or FX.
Listed names quoted for a timed view — no overnight margin, no options chain.
Major pairs as a direction and a horizon, settled in the same USDT book.
Gold and related marks without a separate commodity account.
The ticket
A chart for context, your available balance, the stake, the horizon and the settlement time — then one confirmation. The desk holds a single open position per ledger, so your exposure is always a number you can hold in your head.

Assets
Deposits, withdrawals, transfers and card purchases each keep their own statement, and every debit or credit lands in one ledger view with a reference you can quote to support.
Pick the asset and network, record the transfer, and watch it clear.
Amount and fee go on hold, a reviewer checks the destination, then it broadcasts.
Move USDT to another Vellum account instantly, with no network fee.
We keep the brand, expiry and last four digits. The full number never reaches us.
Trading actions and asset transfers are treated differently, because only one of them is irreversible. Withdrawals, address changes and security settings all ask for a deliberate confirmation.
Modern memory-hard hashing, with a policy that rejects the passwords attackers try first.
TOTP codes with single-use recovery codes. Enabling or disabling it notifies you either way.
See every signed-in device with its address, and revoke any of them — or all of them — in one action.
Irreversible transfers are held, reviewed and confirmed. Restrictions on an account are shown to you plainly.
Market coverage, categorised and searchable, sitting one tap from the ticket. Articles come from a configured feed with the publisher and timestamp attached — we do not write market commentary for you.
Read the newsroom →Bottom navigation, thumb-sized controls, tables that fold into readable rows, and a full section drawer. Nothing is desktop-only: verification, statements, tickets and security all work on a small screen.
Open an account →Timed positions quoted in USDT against crypto, equity, currency and metal marks. Vellum is a desk with its own book, not an order-matching venue, and it does not offer futures, margin, options or lending.
Opening an account takes an email and a password. The paper ledger is there immediately, and nothing about funding is required until you decide to trade live.
