MoneyNeverSleeps: Eva Lawrence, Figment and Staking Digital Assets

Eva Lawrence is the Head of EMEA for Figment, the leading provider of blockchain infrastructure, providing staking solutions for institutions. In this episode, Eva and Pete Townsend talk through Eva’s evolution from a legal mind into institutional trading and her slow-burn crypto awakening before jumping from the institutional world into the great wide open of crypto back in 2018.

We also step through why Eva’s role at Figment is such a fit for her, before talking through the importance of staking now and into the future, and then we use the Wayback Machine that is X/Twitter to figure out what makes Eva do what she does.

Eva Lawrence has a diverse career across law, trading, business development, and strategy. Eva has been in the crypto space since 2018 and was previously COO of Arcane Crypto, a Nordic-listed crypto platform. She has 8+ years of experience in finance, primarily at Morgan Stanley, where she was Head of EMEA Flow Trading for Securities Lending after working in FX Prime Brokerage. In addition, Eva is a UK-qualified lawyer, with experience in digital assets, securities, funds, and financial services.
