The 2022 digital asset market showed why counterparty risk trumps everything. In this episode of Derivatives Decoded Jeff Dorman, CFA Chief Investment Officer at Arca, describes how he saw echoes of 2008 — it wasn't about what you owned, but who you owned it with. Jeff explains why counterparty due diligence matters more than price risk in digital assets, and offers simple but crucial advice: if a counterparty can't produce basic financial statements or answer fundamental custody questions, walk away, no matter how attractive the opportunity.

Bitcoin is less risky at $100,000 than it was at $5,000. Why? The evolution of its investor base tells the story. From crypto-native traders? and now governments — each wave of adoption has transformed Bitcoin's risk profile, says Jeff Dorman, CFA, Chief Investment Officer at Arca . It's not about price, but the expanding universe of institutional use cases: collateral, store of value, and potential strategic reserve. Check out the latest episode of Derivatives Decoded for a sophisticated analysis of Bitcoin's institutional evolution.

Bank custody won't just add another service layer to digital assets - it fundamentally rewrites how institutional capital interfaces with the market. That's the thesis Jeff Dorman, CFA, Chief Investment Officer at Arca, unpacks in our latest episode of Derivatives Decoded. The current market structure creates unprecedented capital inefficiency. While crypto "prime brokers" tout institutional solutions, they can't solve the core problem: in a T+0 settlement environment, you must pre-fund every venue individually. The result? Massive fragmentation of capital across Deribit, CME, IBIT, and other venues — each requiring separate collateral pools. Jeff offers a sophisticated analysis of where institutional capital actually flows and shares Arca's framework for institutional valuation across quantifiable financial value, measurable utility value, and correlative social value. He also tells Ash how rigorous fundamental analysis can be applied to digital assets — a sharp contrast to the purely quantitative approaches dominating the space. For traders managing institutional capital today, Jeff provides detailed analysis of venue selection between IBIT options and crypto-native venues. The key differentiator isn't pricing - it's capital efficiency. Full episode: https://lnkd.in/gEXhuZHh ?? Listen on Apple:?https://lnkd.in/gnefTs-x ?? Tune in on Spotify:?https://lnkd.in/gGqDs4B3 ??

Here's to a great 2025! ??
2024 has been an incredible journey for Kemet Trading, and as the year wraps up, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on some milestones that make me incredibly proud: ?? Breaking Records: In November, we hit an all-time high with $2.7B in notional trading volume for the month, with a staggering 95% of that in options. It’s moments like these that cement Kemet as the institutional leader in derivatives trading—especially options. ?? Partnering with OKX: This was a big one. By teaming up with OKX, we’ve enhanced their institutional trading capabilities, allowing their clients to leverage Kemet for seamless derivatives and spot trading. Collaboration is key to growing this ecosystem, and this partnership is proof. ??? Launching ‘Derivatives Decoded’: Our podcast has been a labor of love, and having guests like Galaxy, Abra , and Arbelos Markets join us has been the cherry on top. These conversations are shaping the narrative around digital asset derivatives, and we’re just getting started. I'll leave a link in the comments to check out our latest episode with Jason Urban from Galaxy if you haven't seen it yet! ?? Closing Our Seed Round in May: Securing $5M in May, led by Further Ventures, alongside support from heavy hitters like Deribit and FalconX, was a massive vote of confidence in what we’re building. This raise wasn’t just about the capital—it was about the belief in our vision and the momentum we’re creating. ?? Innovating with Volatility Trading: Rolling out our Vega-focused trading algo earlier this year was a massive success. It’s delivering unmatched results, and if you haven’t seen it in action yet, let’s fix that - DM me for a demo. ?? Expanding Globally: Attending the Further Network Summit by Further Ventures in Abu Dhabi was inspiring, and it solidified our focus on expanding in the MENA region. The energy in this region is incredible, and I can’t wait to see what’s next. ? New Board Member: I’m beyond excited to announce the addition of Luuk Strijers, CEO of Deribit, to our board at Kemet. Luuk’s expertise and leadership in the derivatives space will be invaluable as we continue to scale and innovate. To our team, partners, and clients: Thank you. None of this happens without your belief, hard work, and collaboration. Here’s to building on this momentum in 2025.

Traditional finance assumes small issues will self-correct with support from institutions, while in crypto, signs of trouble signal urgency. According to Robert Wallden, Head of Trading at Abra, adopting a "move fast" approach means responding to market sentiment quickly, adjusting collateral procedures as needed, and making timely decisions to mitigate risks in the decentralized space.
