We manage over $1 billion in digital assets and trade $1-10 billion per day across thousands of products: all major coins and altcoins, as well as their derivatives. We have a full-scale global operation with the ability to trade on all major exchanges and markets.

Plain and simple, we have better trading, engineering, and operational talent than any other cryptocurrency trading firm. We have decades of experience from the best trading firms on Wall Street, including Jane Street and SIG, and the best technology companies in Silicon Valley, including Google and Facebook.

Our experience and expertise lets us outcompete the rest where it matters:

  • developing best-in-class technology with colocation to guarantee us the best data speeds, sophisticated automated trading systems, and reliable and stress-tested risk management systems
