Hyperithm

Hyperithm is a private digital asset manager based in Tokyo and Seoul, serving institutional investors and high net-worth individuals.

In August 2021, Hyperithm raised Series B funding led by Hashed and Wemade Tree. The company's Series A funding round was led by VIP Research & Management, an asset manager with $20 billion in AUM, with participation from venture capital arms owned by Kakao and Naver, the two largest tech giants in Korea.

Co-founded by an ex-Morgan Stanley investment banker and a serial entrepreneur, Hyperithm boasts an engineering talent pool consisting of several International Math Olympiad medalists. The team specializes in automated trading and risk management through algorithms developed primarily in Rust, a statically-typed programming language designed for performance and safety.
