Why we started W3BWAVE

The impact of crypto on trading has been both profound and multifaceted and we expect it to reshape traditional financial markets with unprecedented speed. As this space evolves, we want to ensure that the next wave of talent looking to develop careers in trading or technology is properly equipped to understand this fast-changing world and its full potential, which is why Flow Traders and Deribit are partnering to launch the Netherlands first dedicated Crypto talent pool - W3BWAVE.
