Cryptocurrency market manufacturer Keyrock is launching a new entity in the United States and opens an office in New York, the company said in a press release on Tuesday.
Robert Valdes-Rodriguez, commercial director of Keyrock, will direct the development of the New York company, said the company.
Valdes-Rodriguez has more than 25 years of experience in management positions in traditional financial institutions, including ABN Amro, Scotiabank and Credit Agricole.
Improving regulatory clarity in the United States under the new administration of President Donald Trump is expected to lead to a digital asset boom.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has trained a new crypto working group led by Commissioner Hester Peirce to write new regulations for industry.
“The United States, as the largest capital market in the world, is a natural adjustment for our ambitions to eventually become one of the largest players in the global financial markets,” Kevin de Patoul, CEO of Keyrock, said in the press release.
Keyrock was founded in Brussels in 2017 and has existing entities in Belgium, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and France.
The Crypto market manufacturer provides liquidity to more than 85 centralized and decentralized negotiations worldwide. The company has 170 employees and operates in 37 countries.
