Quick personal update, I am very pleased to announce I have joined the chads at @stsdigital_io to help build out their crypto options business in APAC! A bit of background on myself (I've worn many hats professionally in crypto over the years). I launched the first crypto hedge fund in Singapore ~2016, built a crypto custody start-up, managed the @tezos APAC BD & ops team, built out the crypto framework for @StanChart on their Digital Assets CoE desk and ran the global institutional sales for a crypto derivatives exchange JV between @sixgroup & @SBI_DAH. Having worked with a variety of builders, traders & enterprises over the years, as well as being pretty plugged into the culture and ecosystem privately, I have always been drawn to the idea of working for a trading firm that can support and trade everything around the ecosystem. When I first spoke to STS over a year ago, I was trying to onboard them to trade derivatives, and within 2 minutes we were talking about runes, ordinals and the trenches. I knew then that this was the kind of firm I wanted to work for. One that is completely professional, but also plugged into the culture of crypto. A little about @stsdigital_io STS is an advanced crypto options trading specialist founded by an ex-hedge fund manager and the ex-UBS options team in Switzerland. STS has a global presence with 30 employees and a strong governance & regulatory framework, having the same license in Bermuda as @coinbase & the major stablecoin projects. With fully automated pricing in hundreds of tokens and automated end-to-end processes, STS provides market making, portfolio management and white glove options trading & liquidity services for private investors, token projects & mining companies. Options trading is likely to be the fastest-growing area of crypto over the next few years, with crypto options and structured products currently only around 5% of the spot market compared to over 100% in FX. This is an area I need to be in, and you should too. So, if you are personally or professionally interested in crypto options, liquidity, treasury management or market-making services for your project, feel free to hit me up! My DMs are always open.
