Crypto Market Maker Wintermute Eyes U.S. Expansion: Bloomberg

2025-2-19 17:47

Wintermute, one of the largest liquidity providers in the cryptocurrency market, is expanding into the U.S. with the opening of a new office in New York and the introduction of over-the-counter (OTC) trading products in the country.

Wintermute has plans for a “new added focus on the U.S.,” CEO Evgeny Gaevoy told Bloomberg during Consensus Hong Kong 2025.

“We are looking to expand in the U.S. with our OTC offering, and we are looking to expand in the U.S. with derivatives offering as well on the OTC side,” Gaevoy said.

The company, which has offices in London and Singapore and employs more than 100 people, is being driven by optimism on potential regulatory changes in the U.S. under the administration of President Donald Trump.

It's not alone. Other crypto firms now considering U.S. expansion or shares sales to the public include Blockchain.com, Circle, Kraken, Gemini Ripple and BitGo. Bullish Global, the parent of CoinDesk, is also said to be considering an IPO.

The New York office is set to open later this year, with an initial team of between five and 10 employees. Gaevoy said Wintermute won’t be conducting trading activities out of the new office.
