Anchorage Digital then creates an official settlement calculation by account — netting all outstanding positions and providing instructions on how to settle. Settlement details are available in the web dashboard under the Trade tab and via the settlement APIs.
Settlement is netted by account and asset for crypto; fiat is netted by trading account. Each settlement instructs the client on the quantity and destination to send assets and fiat.
Clients can designate the exact vault, wallet, or address where Anchorage Digital trading should deposit funds. This destination can be adjusted at any time.
