Wintermute Jobs

About Wintermute   Wintermute is a hyper-growth fintech startup and one of the largest players in the global digital asset markets. We provide liquidity algorithmically across most cryptocurrency exchanges and trading platforms, as well as support high profile blockchain projects and traditional financial institutions moving into crypto.

Culturally, we combine the best traits of both trading companies and technology startups. As a trading company, we manage hundreds of millions in assets, trade more than $5B+/day across dozens of trading platforms and are highly profitable in doing so. As a technology startup, we build, innovate and move incredibly fast, we create best-in-class liquidity products that create more efficient markets. We believe that traditional finance has to change and we are on a mission to define and build the decentralized future of finance. 

Wintermute is a hyper-growth highly profitable proprietary trading business. We are backed by top tier global venture capital investors such as Lightspeed, Pantera Capital, Sino Global Capital, Blockchain.com Ventures, Avon Ventures by Fidelity Investments, DeFi Alliance and others.

Venture Investments at Wintermute   Wintermute has been active in venture investments in early crypto startups since 2020 and has already completed 30+ long-term investments in both equity and tokens.   Due to its position in the global crypto industry and very broad exposure to projects and other venture firms, Wintermute has access to very good deal flow. Unlike many venture funds, Wintermute is able to provide companies with tangible value add, for example by being an early liquidity provider on the platform, we can influence the success of that platform to a significant degree. We also have technology, trading and financial expertise to give offer specific advise and in some cases collaboration. Learn more about how trading firms are ramping up their venture investment and, why token projects might prefer them on the cap table compared to traditional investors in this post.   We are now looking to expand our venture capital arm and have a dedicated owner of this strategic activity. Wintermute ventures will be a separate entity within the Group without external capital. It will focus on early stage investments in crypto companies and protocols, primarily in trading platforms and trading infrastructure space.
