With the idea of becoming a more institutional exchange, Gemini of the Winklevoss twins has opened a new office in Chicago, the so-called Windy City.
Excited to announce the opening of our Chicago office and expand our footprint in one of the world's major financial centers! The time has never been more right to double-down on our mission to build safe and reliable institutional-grade infrastructure https://t.co/nuZWrZMXgF pic.twitter.com/hhsT7D0qcI

A Gemini spokesman told CCN that the new office has already 5 new employees. These include Andrew Page, who previously worked as Product Manager at Coinbase.
“I am very excited to announce that I have joined Gemini as a Product Manager. I’m looking forward to working with this team to deliver class-leading trading systems and products in this exciting industry. Also, we are hiring! Please reach out to me if you’re interested.”
As explained in the tweet, the goal is to “build safe and reliable institutional-grade infrastructure”, and it is no coincidence that Chicago is already the headquarters of CME and CBOE, the two companies that deal with futures.
The Crypto Summer according to the twins
We’re now in the so-called Crypto Summer. These are the words of Tyler Winklevoss:
“Since May, we’ve seen bitcoin increase in value and this week it surpassed its 17-month high. Trading volumes across the industry and mainstream interest in cryptocurrency are on the rise. The time has never been more right to double-down on our mission to build safe and reliable institutional-grade infrastructure.”
In addition, recently, Cameron Winklevoss posted a Twitter post in which he said he was very positive about the price of bitcoin, while it was still on the rise to $13,000.
We've broken the Troposphere, passing through the Stratosphere, next stop is the Mesophere on our way…to the moon! ????
