Citadel Securities hires ex-Wintermute executive to lead digital assets business development

Hedgeweek, citing eFinancialCareers, reports that Citadel Securities appointed former Wintermute executive Willis Croft as head of business development for digital assets. The post states Croft joined in October after serving as a director of business development and partnerships at Wintermute and previously held a vice-president role at Genesis. It also says Citadel Securities outlined plans in early 2025 to provide liquidity to Coinbase and Binance, later supplied liquidity to Kraken after a $200m investment in November 2025, and is recruiting systematic cryptocurrency traders.
