BlackRock Expands Crypto Team with High-Profile Hires Across Key Markets
BlackRock is accelerating its digital assets strategy with a global recruitment drive, targeting senior talent in New York, London, and Singapore. The asset manager seeks to fill roles spanning tokenization, stablecoins, and crypto market infrastructure, signaling institutional maturation of the sector.
A New York-based managing director position commands a $270k-$350k salary to lead cross-functional initiatives on crypto assets and blockchain-based financial instruments. In Asia, BlackRock aims to appoint a regional digital assets strategist to navigate APAC's complex regulatory landscape and forge partnerships with traditional and crypto-native platforms.
The hiring spree underscores Wall Street's growing appetite for crypto exposure. BlackRock's focus on tokenization controls and compliance infrastructure suggests impending large-scale adoption of blockchain in traditional finance.
