Crypto.com don post job for quant trader wey go run internal market-making desk for im sports prediction markets. Di role na buy and sell contracts wey relate to sports outcomes, provide systematic liquidity, manage risk, and try to make profit — basically act as in-house trading desk wey fit take di opposite side of customer bets. Crypto.com tell Bloomberg say di desk no go use proprietary customer order flow or data as revenue source and say market makers get small technical advantage window (3 seconds) for sports markets.
