Alameda Research
Alameda Research is a Hong Kong based quantitative investment company that specializes in trading digital assets. The company manages more than $1B in digital assets and trades on all major markets and exchanges. The company invests in seed-stage and growth-stage companies in the financial technology space. The company manages more than $10 billion in digital assets and manages more than $1 billion in trading volume per day. The company is run by co-CEOs Sam Trabucco and Caroline Ellison.
Alameda Research combines advantages in trading, OTC quoting, and market making to provide its clients with better services than its competitors. Its team is comprised of experts who have extensive knowledge in these fields. While this group is relatively small, it has been able to create a significant impact in the space.
Recently, Alameda Research announced it would repay its loans to Voyager Digital, a previously bankrupt crypto exchange. Voyager Digital secured a credit facility of $380 million from Alameda Research in September 2021. This facility was extended to Voyager Digital in June 2022 with the aim of helping it meet its customers’ liquidity needs.
As Alameda Research is owned by Sam Bankman-Fried, it is the biggest investor in Solana Labs. The firm is currently managing over $5 billion in digital assets and trades more than $10 billion a day. It invests in companies such as 1inch, Paraswap, StarkWare, and Alpha. Its ability to trade across major exchanges and markets means it can help investors grow a portfolio.
