The Krypton Community
The Krypton community is lively, friendly, and a little quirky. Our team of multi-disciplinary talents is top-tier, and and we believe our collective sense of humor is also top-tier.
Michael is a former professor of Mathematical Finance at Boston University, with a focus on macro-asset pricing, dynamic portfolio optimization, and stochastic processes. Prior to co-founding Krypton, he worked in quantitative asset management, where he realized that the persistent inefficiences in markets could be solved with better solutions in DeFi.
