About

Follow me to learn what I know. I make experienced judgments, which results in accurate vision about Bitcoin, crypto x ai x market structure. Maria Adamjee wrote the playbook for Investor Relations in crypto . She has shaped the definition of market structure across the token landscape and was the first liaison to institutional investors in the industry. She is a leading voice in crypto market valuation, pricing and capital allocation. Maria is a bellwether for the institutional evolution of digital assets. With a career in trading, securities lending, HFT, and derivatives trading infra at firms like RBC, Merill Lynch, ITG, and Fidessa. She left public markets to chase alpha and became a thought leader at PitchBook before driving strategic growth at Beacon Platform and Ripple, creating breakout strategies that have led to liquidity events and exits. Always a thought-leader, Maria was an early Bitcoin fund founder, and remains a maxi! Maria currently leads Investor Relations at Polygon Labs. She brings decades of market perspective (and uncommon candor) to the intersection of Wall Street and Web3.
