Wall Street’s Top Hedge Fund Giant Millennium Management Officially Enters the Crypto Area

British Weekly Published: April 15, 2022 | Updated: April 15, 2022 2 min read

Millennium Management, one of the most low-profile hedge fund giants on Wall Street, recently announced its entry into the cryptocurrency market and the formation of a crypto division.

Millennium Management is now ranked third among the top 10 global funds, with Bridgewater Associates and AQR Capital Management in the top two spots, and the fourth is Citadel Securities.

Millennium Management hedge fund was founded by Israel Englander in New York in 1989 and currently manages approximately $48.3 billion in assets, with operations in the United States, Europe, and Asia.

Millennium’s investment strategy focuses on diversification and globalization, including relative value, statistical arbitrage, merger arbitrage, fixed income, and commodities. It is highly diversified in terms of asset classes, commodity affiliations, and underlying locations, with investments in domestic and international equity, debt, currencies, futures, forwards, and options. Over the past 30 years, Millennium’s multi-strategy hedge funds have generated 29 years of positive returns, which no other hedge fund in the world can match.

In 2020, Millennium topped the global fund list as the world’s number one performing hedge fund with $10.2 billion in returns. Consistent strategies have enabled Millennium to weather the bulls and bears and record 29 years of positive returns.

Using a range of high technologies such as big data, financial models and computational methods, performance metrics are tracked at all times to hedge risk exposure and market volatility.

Back in 2020, Millennium Management sought to enter the cryptocurrency space and purchased a significant amount of greyscale GBTC, although Millennium has not publicly held a share of GBTC. According to greyscale personnel, Millennium is by far the largest hedge fund firm trading GBTC.

Whereas, with the rise of open protocols and the new financial DeFi, as well as the growing infrastructure of the crypto economy, the time has come for Millennium, with over thirty years of trading expertise and algorithmic experience, to enter the crypto market.

Millennium will drive the development of trading in the crypto industry through its own proven trading experience, and the huge prospects and innovations in the crypto market will find a new niche for Millennium. Today, Millennium has set up a full-service crypto division, covering investment research, options trading, quantitative trading, hedging business, algorithmic strategies and many other areas.

When the economic market becomes more and more intelligent, building a quantitative system by traditional predictive modeling alone can no longer meet the existing institutions’ survival conditions, and it takes more than just a quantitative trading team to break through the existing barriers. For traditional fund giants, it is necessary to build a new identity, enter a new environment, and complete the transformation from “quantitative trading” to “quantitative thinking”.

Millennium is completing such a transformation, an institution that completes a value revolution, a financial revolution, a knowledge revolution for itself through constant paradigm shifts, and continues to become stronger. Each new shift and iteration for itself will result in the compounding of existing tools and skills, which are repeated over and over again to complete the organic development.
