Matrixport Group today announced the appointment of Anthony DeMartino as its US CEO as part of its ongoing international growth strategy.

Matrixport’s expansion into the US demonstrates its firm commitment to better serve its clients and further develop the digital asset management industry.

Mr. Anthony DeMartino, a financial industry veteran with global risk experience, joins the firm from Coinbase where he held several roles, including its head of risk strategies, institutional DeFi and derivatives trading. DeMartino has over two decades of experience running multiple financial services businesses with global banks such as HSBC, Barclays, and UBS.
