Company mission
Jump Crypto's mission is to build toward the next frontier in crypto infrastructure.
Our take
The overall market cap of cryptocurrencies recently exceeded $3Tn. That milestone represents a complex financial system of idiosyncratic markets. Despite that growth, as a nascent market, there are an impressive number of opportunities for arbitrage.
Jump Crypto capitalises on these opportunities to bring efficiencies to the market. However, unlike its parent, Jump Trading, which famously focuses just on quantitative trading, Jump Crypto is also pursuing an investors-as-builders strategy with half of its 100+ developer team actually shipping code for protocols like Solana.
The company is looking to experiment with a variety of ways of deploying capital in the ecosystem as part of its goal of staying ahead of developments in the market. For example, the firm has recently engaged in a partnership with Avalanche to deliver Jump subnets.
