Caladan Expands to the U.S., Opening a New York City Office
Published on

Caladan, a leading crypto-native fund and trading firm, is expanding into the United States with the opening of a representative office in New York City. This move reflects Caladan’s view that recent developments in the US regulatory discourse are creating opportunities for transparent, institutional crypto players.

With deep roots in Asia’s fast-moving crypto markets, Caladan brings a battle-tested blend of executional efficiency, compliance rigor, and ecosystem-first thinking to the evolving U.S. landscape. The move underscores Caladan’s long-term belief in the U.S. as a key growth market and includes plans to allocate at least 5% of global headcount to the new U.S. operations.

To spearhead its U.S. operations, operating from the US office in NYC, Caladan has onboarded three industry leaders, spearheaded by Gian-Paul Caccia. They have experience from both crypto heavyweights such as Coinbase, and traditional finance leaders such as BlackRock, Bank of America, and Cowen Digital. These hires reflect Caladan’s strategic vision: to blend world-class operational rigor with forward-looking compliance strategies tailored to emerging U.S. standards.

“We see a pivotal moment in U.S. financial markets,” said Julia Zhou, COO at Caladan. “Regulatory clarity is unlocking new pathways for innovation, and Caladan is uniquely positioned to bring the high-efficiency standards and bold execution we've developed in Asia to the U.S. market. We’re also actively exploring appropriate regulatory pathways, including potential broker-dealer registration and FINRA membership, in alignment with our long-term commitment to regulatory alignment. It’s not just about operating in the U.S., we want to help shape the rules-based future of crypto markets with full transparency and accountability.”

As Caladan plants roots in the U.S., this cross-pollination of both regions enables clients to access global liquidity and insights with unmatched speed and reliability.

Caladan’s New York office will play a central role in forging institutional relationships, deepening regulatory engagement, and accelerating our strategic footprint in the U.S., serving as a bridge between Asia’s advanced crypto market structures and the growing institutional momentum in the United States.
