Wintermute Registers with SEC for Stocks and Options

Wintermute, a crypto-focused trading firm, has registered as an SEC broker-dealer for stocks and options. As of August 7th, 2026, public records show no Form BD or EDGAR filing naming 'Wintermute' or 'Wintermute USA LLC' as an SEC-registered broker-dealer for equities or options.

FINRA BrokerCheck documents indicate regulatory interactions and personnel listings for Wintermute-related entities, but these are not firm-level SEC Form BD filings or notices of new broker-dealer registrations.

Until a Form BD appears, market participants should treat any assertion that Wintermute is registered to broker U.S. equities or listed options as unconfirmed. Operating as a U.S. broker-dealer generally requires SEC registration and FINRA membership.
