Kbit is a quantitative, high-frequency, high-turnover cryptocurrency trading firm. Founded almost 5 years ago, we perform hundreds of thousands of trades a day in cryptos and crypto derivatives globally using a proprietary, distributed technology platform. Since inception we've done over $70 billion in trading volume and currently trade around $5 billion a month across many exchanges. We've been consistently profitable over different market cycles during that time. We've built a proprietary platform for market data processing, order management, strategy execution, research, accounting, and operations.
We are a very small and entrepreneurial team. Our culture is casual, scientific, and engineering focused. There’s zero red tape, and tons of opportunity for impact. Our capital base is growing materially, and we are looking to expand our trading strategies and capabilities.
