Crypto Hedge Fund Temple Capital Hires TradFi Execs as Institutional Demand Grows

by

In a move that can only be described as “let’s throw some fancy titles at this crypto thing,” Temple Capital has decided to expand its senior management team. Apparently, hiring from Hilbert Capital, BlueCrest, and Brevan Howard is the new trend in hedge funds. Who knew?

What to know:

  • Temple Capital has expanded its senior management team with hires from Hilbert Capital, BlueCrest, and Brevan Howard. Because why not?
  • The crypto hedge fund was founded in 2018 and is backed by Bain Capital and Pantera. Yes, the same Pantera that sounds like a cool car.

So, here’s the scoop: Guy Griffiths, who apparently has been counting beans at Brevan Howard for 19 years, has now decided to join Temple Capital as their chief financial officer. I guess he finally got tired of the London fog and wanted to dive into the world of crypto.

Then there’s Richard Murray, the former CEO of Hilbert Capital, who has now graced Temple Capital with his presence as a partner. I mean, who wouldn’t want to partner with a firm that sounds like it’s straight out of a sci-fi movie?

And let’s not forget Cristian-Teodor Tudor, who was the lead quant developer at BlueCrest. He’s now a quant researcher at Temple Capital. I can only imagine the conversations they have about numbers and algorithms—riveting stuff, really.

As of now, Temple Capital is managing a whopping $120 million in assets. That’s right, folks, they’re backed by Bain Capital and Pantera Capital. So, if you’re looking for a hedge fund that sounds like it’s run by a bunch of wizards, look no further!
