From Skeptic to Player: Citadel Securities Is Planning to Expand Into Crypto Trading

Bloomberg reported that Citadel Securities, led by Ken Griffin, is planning to expand into cryptocurrency trading, capitalizing on President Donald Trump’s pro-crypto stance, which is expected to boost the industry. Previously cautious due to regulatory uncertainties, the firm aims to become a liquidity provider for cryptocurrencies and join major exchanges like Coinbase, Binance, and Crypto.com. Bloomberg’s report states that initially, Citadel plans to establish market-making teams outside the U.S., with its strategy potentially evolving based on upcoming regulations. The firm has already collaborated with Charles Schwab and Fidelity to launch EDX Markets, an institutional-only crypto exchange, in 2023. This expansion marks a significant pivot for Citadel, which has historically avoided retail crypto markets but now seeks to leverage its expertise in traditional asset classes like equities and fixed income to dominate the crypto space.
