Sixtant

Sixtant operates as a proprietary trading and market making firm focused exclusively on digital assets. It was founded as a small team of entrepreneurial collaborators, with no founding year or named principals listed publicly. The wealth origin behind the firm remains undisclosed — it does not appear to manage external capital or exist as a traditional family office. The firm's strategy is entirely quantitative and market neutral — it trades across a range of instruments including perpetual swaps and emerging market currencies on centralized limit order books and DeFi protocols. Sixtant describes its edge as deriving from deep knowledge of exchange microstructure — tick sizes, order types, fee rebates, and API functionality. It captures billions of market data points weekly and acts as a designated market maker for select clients. No named portfolio companies or external co-investors are disclosed, reflecting its purely proprietary model. The firm does not publish team size, AUM, or employee headcount. It maintains offices in at least 11 locations — Menlo Park, Singapore, San Francisco, London, Mexico City, New York, Taipei, Palo Alto, Chicago, Netanya, and Hong Kong — though these may represent trading desks or presence rather than full operational hubs. Sixtant has no disclosed philanthropic vehicles or adjacent operating companies. Sixtant’s structural differentiator lies in its combination of proprietary data infrastructure and cross-exchange market making — it simultaneously trades on both centralized and decentralized venues, applying the same microstructure approach across venue types. The firm is entirely self-funded and does not raise external capital, making its governance and succession structure opaque.
