Furthermore, the company is also working on creating specific trading desks for ICOs, institutional crypto trades, and arbitrage. Given the rapid pace at which the firm is working on this, it won’t be long when the company will announce the launch of its crypto trading desk.

“Truth be told this is the next arms race. EVERYONE IS RUSHING INTO CRYPTOS. Everyone. There isn’t a bank, a fund, a fund company, a former legend attempting to reclaim old glory, private equity, venture capital, lending, exchanges, consulting firms – everybody. It is the digital gold rush. And our firm wants to get there and pull as many levers as we can.”
