BlackRock (NYSE: BLK) is looking to hire people in crypto leadership roles as the world’s largest asset manager expands its digital asset offerings across the globe.
The firm is the largest issuer of both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) exchange-traded funds (ETFs). It also launched the first tokenized fund, the BlackRock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL), on Ethereum last year.
And it seems BlackRock isn’t taking a pause.
