Crypto Firms Expand US Operations Amid Regulatory Shifts, Fueling Talent Competition
Cryptocurrency firms are aggressively expanding their US presence as regulatory clarity gradually emerges, triggering a fierce competition for specialized talent. Wintermute’s establishment of a New York headquarters marks the latest strategic move, with the trading firm prioritizing business development and policy engagement under leadership hires like David Micley and RON Hammond.
The sector’s hiring surge concentrates on policy experts, compliance officers, and go-to-market strategists—roles now deemed critical for navigating the evolving US regulatory landscape. This talent arms race reflects growing confidence in America’s crypto adoption trajectory despite ongoing legislative uncertainties.
