LUCIDA is a comprehensive financial institution dedicated to the digital asset secondary markets. We specialize in multi-strategy crypto trading across three core pillars — quantitative trading, asset management, and financial terminals — with industry-leading track records in arbitrage, market making, and directional strategies.

Founded in 2018 by Naiqian Zheng, with Fabian Bjorklund serving as Co-Managing Partner, LUCIDA brings together nearly 20 senior researchers and asset managers operating across China, London, and New York. Our core team averages 8 years of hands-on crypto secondary-market experience, with alumni from Tsinghua University, Central University of Finance and Economics, the University of Oxford, the National University of Singapore, and University College London (UCL).
