Nirup R. — CEO

I'm the CEO and Co-Founder of BridgePort, a middleware platform designed to revolutionize off-exchange settlement for institutional crypto trading. With over 15 years of experience in traditional finance, I’ve led product strategy, execution, and settlement initiatives across FX, fixed income, and crypto markets. Previously at CME Group, I spearheaded the development of crypto trading infrastructure for EBS and managed one of the largest OTC derivatives SEF and MTF platforms regulated by the CFTC, FCA, and MAS. My background includes building low-latency execution venues, working closely with regulators, and driving market structure evolution. At BridgePort, we’re solving critical inefficiencies in institutional crypto—eliminating prefunding, reducing counterparty risk, and enhancing capital efficiency through agnostic connectivity with exchanges and custodians. I’m passionate about bridging the gap between traditional finance and crypto, fostering innovation, and creating infrastructure that drives real-world impact. Let’s connect if you’re interested in institutional crypto, trading infrastructure, or potential partnerships.
