Donald Trump’s Win Encourages Institutional Players In The Digital Asset Realm
Following the recent U.S. presidential elections that saw Donald Trump win, ex-executives at Millennium Management LLC and Pacific Investment Management Co are gauging in on launching a crypto advisory firm, x2B. A recent Bloomberg report reveals that Benoit Bosc, portfolio manager at Millennium, and Michael Bressler, executive vice president at Pimco, left their previous firms right before the U.S. elections to work on the digital asset consultancy firm mentioned above.
Notably, this company will advise cryptocurrency projects on vital areas encompassing fundraising, token launches, treasury management, and market-making arrangements. Bressler stated in an interview, “There are very few people that have been at the intersection of high-level traditional finance and digital finance and understand the intricate dynamics of token launches.” The abovementioned venture comes as a testament to this statement. Further, Bressler confirmed that the startup launches in November and already has ten clients.
Altogether, this endeavor has garnered significant attention, primarily aligning with pro-crypto Donald Trump’s reelection to the U.S. presidency. A plethora of other events further underscore the rising demand for digital assets globally post-presidential elections.
