Altius Labs Co-Founder: Wall Street trading institutions are shifting to on-chain

ChainCatcher News, Annabelle Huang, Co-Founder and CEO of Altius Labs, stated that Wall Street trading institutions’ Alpha is shifting from physical custody and nanosecond-level speed advantages to the use of on-chain infrastructure.

Jump has leveraged high-frequency trading experience to develop the high-performance validator client Firedancer for Solana, and its supported project DoubleZero is seeking to commercialize its global private fiber optic and submarine cable network to reduce latency. Cumberland is providing real-time crypto market data for Pyth Network. Jane Street traded over $110 billion in cryptocurrencies in 2024 and recently hired Copper’s former Infrastructure Architecture Lead. As stablecoins and real-world asset tokenization inject liquidity, the on-chain market size will continue to expand, and future Alpha will come from the production, ordering, and monetization of block space.
