Episode Details

Welcome to our latest episode of Women in Crypto, the podcast presented by the Association for Women in Cryptocurrency and sponsored by Bracewell LLP.

In this compelling episode, we dive into “Decrypting Market Meltdowns: Institutional Trading and the Path to CRO.” We’re joined by Jennifer Shaughnessy, Chief Revenue Officer of Coin Roots and a lifelong entrepreneur who started her first company at 22. Jennifer is the CRO of Coin Roots, which operates as an institutional trading engine for crypto, connecting prop funds and asset managers to dozens of liquidity sources for faster and more cost-efficient execution.

In this episode, we explore advanced trading concepts including spread algos and perpetual futures contracts (perps), and how Coin Roots' technology helped institutional traders navigate the dramatic market volatility during the October 10th liquidation event, allowing them to fill orders across multiple exchanges while reducing slippage. Jennifer also shares her unique journey to the rare CRO position for women in crypto, discussing the high bar women face in sales and the necessity of intentional equity and allyship in the industry.
