\n

Chicago-based trading giant Jump is returning its U.S. cryptocurrency operations to full strength after scaling it back over the past couple of years due to regulatory scrutiny and uncertainty.<\/p>\n

While Jump has maintained its digital assets trading and market-making activity in other parts of the globe, crypto trading volume is now accelerating in the U.S., according to a person familiar with the situation. In addition, Jump is looking to hire a clutch of crypto engineers<\/a> and plans to start filling U.S. policy and governmental liaison roles in due course, a second person said.<\/p>\n

The previous U.S. administration, aided and abetted by anti-crypto regulators and weaponized banking authorities, did its best to choke off the digital assets sector across the States\u2014a situation rapidly reversed under Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

Jump found itself at the center of regulatory scrutiny in the wake of the collapse of the Terra Luna stablecoin and FTX. This led to reports of a pullback in the U.S., including the spin-out of Jump\u2019s Wormhole project and a halving of headcount<\/a> at the Jump Crypto division, which had peaked at about 150 staffers in 2022, according to Bloomberg.<\/p>\n

An interesting proposition for Jump would be participation in the U.S. crypto ETF space, where the firm has remained conspicuously absent.<\/a><\/p>\n

Looking ahead, a solana (SOL) ETF is likely to be granted<\/a> at some point; Jump is known for its investment and development work in the Solana ecosystem, such as with projects like Firedancer,<\/a> software designed to improve transaction throughput on the blockchain.<\/p>\n

Jump declined to comment.<\/p>\n
