According to the official statement, CoinShares’ central office in New York City will serve as the base for the company’s US operations, which are set to expand rapidly in the coming years.

The company is reportedly actively recruiting in various departments, including sales, marketing, operations, and compliance . It aims to strengthen its presence in the American market and target US institutions with the new base.

Speaking about the new development, Jean-Marie Mognetti, the Chief Executive Officer of CoinShares, said: “The inauguration of our New York City Office marks a watershed moment in the Company's expansion into the US market, highlighting the growing significance of digital assets within the global financial ecosystem.”

“Our expansion in the US not only augments our capacity for synergistic engagement with American stakeholders but also solidifies our position at the vanguard of the digital asset industry's evolution,” he continued. “This underscores our commitment to leadership and innovation in this rapidly transforming sector.”

The launch of CoinShares’ New York office comes as the firm builds on the success of its Valkyrie acquisition. Valkyrie’s portfolio of ETFs, including the CoinShares Valkyrie Bitcoin Fund and the Miners ETF, has significantly contributed to the firm’s US growth.

These products enabled CoinShares to increase its global assets under management to $5.5 billion. The new US office will act as a launchpad for future projects and offerings aimed at capitalizing on the increasing demand for digital asset investments.

CoinShares recently released its financial results for the second quarter of 2024, highlighting strong performance during the period. The company also announced a dividend following the successful recovery of its FTX claim.

The filing, however, showed that FlowBank's collapse negatively impacted its investments, offsetting a major part of its total revenue. The firm’s asset management revenue for Q2 was £22.5, more than doubling from £10.7 million in the same period last year.

CoinShares’ income jumped to £25.8 million, up from £5.3 million in the second quarter. Besides that, the adjusted EBITDA experienced significant growth, reaching £26.6 million from £11.4 million in the previous quarter.
