Bloomberg: Goldman’s former Head of Digital Asset Markets joins startup
Introduction
Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s former Head of Digital Asset Markets, Justin Schmidt, just became head of strategy at crypto-trading engineering company Talos.
Schmidt left Goldman late last year as the firm was getting close to offering investment vehicles for Bitcoin and other digital assets to clients. During Schmidt’s tenure, Goldman also invested in cryptocurrency prime broker BitGo Inc.
“Justin comes from a very traditional background, he understands the trade lifecycle and the requirements of our clients,” said Anton Katz, who prior to co-founding Talos was head of trading technology for AQR Capital Management. “We are trying to bridge the gap between institutional investors and digital assets.”
