New Market Trading Hires DeFi Veteran Ajdin Kahrović as Chief Technology Officer

New Market Trading (NMT), a wealth management firm that moves investment accounts onto the blockchain, has appointed Ajdin Kahrović as its Chief Technology Officer. Kahrović joins NMT on launch day, bringing over 11 years of experience in fintech, Web3, and DeFi to the role.

Kahrović previously worked at defi.app, where he architected the platform's security and led an engineering team that achieved $40 billion in cumulative trading volume. He will now oversee all engineering efforts at NMT, setting the technical roadmap and ensuring the security and reliability of the platform as it scales.

NMT clients own their investment accounts directly on the blockchain via ERC-4337 smart account technology, with the NMT team holding delegated permission to execute strategies but not withdraw or redirect funds. Kahrović's appointment ensures that the engineering foundation beneath this model is designed and maintained by someone who has already carried out this responsibility in production.
