Person Profile
Antonio Juliano is the founder and CEO of dYdX, a prominent figure in decentralized trading and derivatives. With an engineering background from Coinbase, Uber, and MongoDB, he brings a rare mix of technical depth and protocol-building experience to crypto infrastructure.
He tends to back early-stage protocol, trading, and application-layer opportunities, with an emphasis on usability and network effects. His decisions appear to favor technically grounded projects with clear real-world use cases, reflecting moderate-to-high risk tolerance.
Recent public attention has centered on dYdX and Robinhood launching the Arcus beta, advancing the tokenized stock trading narrative. The announcement also triggered market concern about a new DYDX token plan, and the token gave back much of its intraday gains.
