The cryptocurrency market has grown to include institutional investors, yield protocols and real-world use cases, but investor attention remains focused on “one-shot” profit narratives rather than fundamentals.

They pointed to a gap between capital flows and attention, and said market structure, liquidity and sustainable cash flow matter more over time.

Talos has integrated with Kalshi to let some institutional clients trade prediction market event contracts and crypto perpetual futures through their existing digital asset trading infrastructure. The move eliminates the need to build separate connections, reducing operational burdens for professional trading firms such as hedge funds and market makers. Talos also offers algorithmic orders and multi-leg execution, enabling spread trades and block trades via an RFQ platform.
