Kamino hires private markets and AI veterans to lead U.S. institutional expansion

Kamino has appointed Matthew Klopfer, formerly of Yieldstreet (now Willow Wealth), as Head of U.S. Institutional Expansion, and Blake Messer, formerly Cratejoy CTO, as Head of Agentic Operations. Both report to CEO Michael Weisz and are early hires at the company's new New York headquarters. Kamino says it has processed over $650 billion in cumulative volume and originated more than $20 billion in loans with zero bad debt, and has never had a hack. Klopfer helped syndicate over $6 billion across 650+ transactions at Yieldstreet. Forward Industries and Galaxy use Kamino as live collateral infrastructure, and Figure's PRIME was built with it.
