The world went into an emotional and financial turmoil ever since the crypto market descended in 2022, losing over $2 trillion in value. Even with such high risks, why are financial institutions such as JPMorgan launching crypto trading desks? Is there much to gain in the crypto world, or much to lose?

As the top global market maker for crypto options, QCP Capital handles clients ranging from high-net-worth individuals, to foundations, to large institutions. As the Head of Derivatives at QCP Capital, Simon Nursey is an expert in financial derivatives, and with a track record in building trading businesses and extensive experience in delivering risk management systems, he shares about the growth and maturity of the crypto industry.




Simon goes deep into,

  • The crypto world has been a roller-coaster ride, and there is no time to rest as it’s a quicker pace where 1 crypto year is 7 DeFi years.
  • DeFi option vaults provide liquidity, a safe and efficient method of distributing prices to a wide range of clients.
  • The ever-changing landscape of crypto, where safety has been amplified hugely in the past year due to regulations and regulated entities.
  • Its scalable technology allows for huge amounts of transactions to process without overloading and congestion.
