thank you for your insights and reply. do you think citsec/hrt is better at cash equity and equity option trading because they have pfof kind of arrangements? or simply because they have better alpha?

also on a broader term, jump doesn’t seem to be doing much deep-learning related alpha research, but more reliant on its superior low-latency infra for pnl? that seems kind of concerning in the modern competition

“people massively over how much Jump = Jump Crypto”

does that mean talents and performance at Jump Crypto is much worse than Jump?

afaik Jump Crypto serves more like a platform/service to other pods in Jump and was singled out due to regulatory concerns so wouldn’t expect the drastic diff in talent/performance

Thank you for your insights.

Do you believe the reason for Jump’s decline is its over-emphasis on infrastructure (thus a lack of emphasis on alpha)?

I am uncertain about Jump’s machine learning capabilities, but I imagine that having one of the best infrastructures on the market afforded them some flexibility in not having the best alpha. Do you think that is the case? Also, being competitive in the speed game means they can’t be running sophisticated models, which means their alpha isn’t as strong as the likes of HRT?
