§ 03  · Services

Three mandates. Structured end-to-end. No retainers without fit.

  1. 03.01

    An end-to-end global listing strategy and execution

    Strategy building and oversight across every region. Western exchanges — Coinbase, Kraken, Robinhood, Revolut, Binance US, Bitpanda, Bitvavo and others — are handled hands-on. Asian exchanges are managed at arm's length: we orchestrate the efforts of regional specialists and the project's existing advisors so the programme moves as one.

    Ongoing · Retainer
  2. 03.02

    Listings on specific Western exchanges

    A focused mandate to land a listing on one or more named Western venues. Narrative, documentation, committee introductions, fee negotiation, post-listing support.

    12–24 weeks · Mainly success-based
  3. 03.03

    Ad-hoc advisory on compliance & applications

    By-the-hour counsel on listing applications, compliance posture, exchange relations and related questions. Advisory only — not legal advice; we recommend retaining qualified counsel for legal matters.

    Hourly · No minimum
§ 04  · The Pedigree

An operator's perspective, not a banker's.

Tal Cohen

Founder & Principal Advisor

Twenty-five years across legal practice, top-tier strategy consulting and C-suite exchange operations. Most recently CEO of a Tier-1 US centralized exchange — responsible for listings, compliance posture, institutional product and firm-wide P&L during a defining regulatory cycle.

This firm is the other side of that desk. It exists to give projects the unvarnished read of what a listings committee actually weighs — and how to earn the yes.
