The move marks the largest acquisition in Talos’s history. The company has been actively expanding its capabilities through M&A, including prior acquisitions of Cloudwall, Skolem, and D3X Systems.
The acquisition further signals consolidation in the digital asset infrastructure space, as platforms seek to differentiate by offering end-to-end solutions to traditional finance players entering crypto.
Talos and Coin Metrics share a strong institutional client base, and the integration is expected to streamline data-driven workflows, from advanced portfolio analytics and risk assessment to execution and performance benchmarking.
"By bringing our platforms together, we're creating a fully integrated, one-stop solution that benefits the clients of both firms," said Anton Katz, CEO and co-founder of Talos, in the release.
"Institutions increasingly look to us to support the entire digital asset investment lifecycle, from trading and portfolio management to market data, on-chain analytics, and portfolio construction. Combining our teams and technologies delivers a uniquely powerful platform, making our offering significantly stronger for our clients," Katz added.
Headquartered in New York, Talos operates in 32 countries with offices in London, Cyprus, and Singapore.
