Details Miguel Vias is a payments and cryptocurrency markets expert particularly focused on developing liquidity growth strategies for early-stage products and projects. He recently served as Head of XRP Markets at Ripple, where he managed a team that drove XRP liquidity growth, as well as the adoption of the company’s flagship remittance product, the first ever to commercially use a digital currency as a bridge asset. Before Ripple he was in charge of the precious metals product team at CME Group, the largest derivatives exchange in the world. Miguel currently sits on the Board of Directors of Digital Asset Management and is an advisor to Addigy and Linqto, where he helps with liquidity growth for the platform’s offerings.

His network is massive, and his knowledge of the cryptocurrency payments space, crypto market strategies, and drivers for growth is powerful and unique. His collaboration with the Rally network would be instrumental for the community’s growth.
