Additionally, Gaevoy said Wintermute Trading Ltd. has remained profitable and is diversifying its business to prepare for another bull market cycle. Wintermute COO Marina Gurevich said the company is currently trading between $2 billion and $3 billion per day, down from $7.5 billion per day during the market peak in 2021. Additionally, there are plans to add 10% or 10 employees over the next two to six months. Since 2020, Wintermute has supported more than 80 projects. (Bloomberg)
