Kevin Wolf, in the CFO role, will play a key role in the company’s growth efforts.
He brings over 25 years of capital markets experience to the new role.
Kevin Wolf
Crossover Markets Group, which offers a cryptocurrency electronic communication network (ECN) among other technologies, has named Kevin Wolf as Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Wolf has been associated with the company since June 2024 and was most recently CFO at the American Financial Exchange.
A Key Appointment for Growth
Announced today (Tuesday), Wolf’s appointment came within a year after Crossover secured $12 million in a Series A funding round, which was led by Illuminate Financial and DRW Venture Capital (DRW VC).
The company is also backed by big names in the trading industry. Some of the seed investors in the company include institutions like Flow Traders, Laser Digital, Two Sigma, and Wintermute, and retail brokers like Exness, Gate.io, GMO, Pepperstone, Trademax, and ThinkMarkets.
Brandon Mulvihill, CEO at Crossover Markets
“Given market dynamics, we aim to expedite our growth across jurisdictions as well as remain opportunistic with respect to corporate strategy,” said Brandon Mulvihill, Co-Founder and CEO of Crossover Markets. “Kevin immediately covers these bases and further deepens our managerial capacity.”
Wolf brings over 25 years of capital markets experience to the crypto company. During his time at American Financial Exchange, he also played a key role in its acquisition by Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) earlier this year.
His other experiences include being on the board and later CEO at Euronext FX, previously known as FastMatch. He has also held senior roles at Eris Exchange, Bank of America, and Lehman Brothers.
Increasing Demand for Crypto Technology
Crossover was established in 2022 by two former Jefferies executives, Mulvihill and Anthony Mazzarese. While Mulvihill is steering the company as the CEO, Mazzarese is holding the role of Chief Commercial Officer.
The company launched CROSSx, a crypto electronic communication network (ECN), last year with promises to decrease trading costs, improve execution quality, and enhance market data capabilities. Although ECNs are very popular in forex, it was one of the first in the cryptocurrency industry.
“Crossover is uniquely positioned in the market with its cutting-edge technology and market model specifically suited for institutions, particularly as US-based firms increasingly engage with the crypto ecosystem,” said Wolf.

The trades that taught me the most aren't the ones that worked. They're the ones that didn't — or the ones I almost caught and didn't have the nerve to ride. In this session, I'll tell you about the Brexit miss, the SNB shocker that nearly handed me a 5400% return, the BoJ surprise that punched me in the gut, and a few wins along the way. Each story carries a lesson, but the lessons aren't the point. Everyone who trades long enough collects a portfolio of moments like these; what separates the people who stay in the game is what they do with them.

Most market post-mortems describe what happened to prices. Few describe what happened in the trading room while the position was open: the entry conviction, the moments that tested it, and the exit decision that closed the book.
This session brings one seasoned trader to the stage for an unfiltered account of the position that still defines how they think about markets.
Attendees will walk away with:
-A first-hand account of how a conviction trade is built, from thesis and entry through position management and exit
-Understanding of what turns a market observation into a live position, and what holds it when conditions shift
-Insight into how timing, execution quality, and market structure shaped the final result
-Perspective on what the trade revealed about edge, risk tolerance, and when to hold through a position moving against you
-Clarity on what separates a well-built trade from a well-timed one

As crypto and CFD trading continue to expand across Africa, access to advanced tools and market insights remains uneven. This session explores how AI and blockchain can bridge that gap by empowering informal traders and underserved communities to participate more effectively in digital financial markets.

In this discussion, we will explore:
-The role of AI in democratizing access to trading tools, insights, and strategy development
-How crypto and blockchain can enable broader participation beyond traditional financial systems
-Addressing access barriers: infrastructure, education, and affordability in underserved communities
-Opportunities for brokers and platforms to tap into the informal trading economy
