Recent activity on LinkedIn and Google Jobs suggests that Deloitte is on the prowl for crypto natives to join its ranks.

A search on LinkedIn for crypto jobs based in the US spits out 331 available roles at Deloitte, with virtually all of them posted a week ago. The same LinkedIn search for crypto-related listings at the other “Big Four” accounting firms — Ernst & Young, KPMG and PricewaterhouseCoopers — have zero results.

Crypto-related titles at Deloitte include:

Blockchain & Digital Assets Manager — position available in 97 US locations
Tax Manager, Blockchain & Cryptocurrency — position available in 18 US locations
Tax Manager, Blockchain & Cryptocurrency in NFTs — position available in three US locations

This comes as Deloitte signals its continued readiness to work with crypto firms. Blockworks reported in January 2023 that Circle hired Deloitte to audit its proof-of-reserves. Just a month earlier, all of the “Big Four” firms were “unwilling” to conduct this type of audit for a private crypto company.

In the listing for “Blockchain & Digital Assets Manager,” Deloitte tells applicants that they will be leading teams to provide audit readiness for blockchain and digital asset transactions. Additionally, the post says that applicants will design governance models, identify new risks and evaluate blockchain reliability.

There are several crossover listings on Deloitte’s website, and for now it is unclear if these positions that it seeks to fill were advertised previously. Blockworks has reached out to Deloitte for comment and has not received an immediate response.

Kinetiq Protocol: From LST Infrastructure to HIP-3 Deployer

Kinetiq has established itself as Hyperliquid's dominant liquid staking protocol, holding 82.5% of LST market share with $610M in TVL. The protocol is now expanding beyond its kHYPE staking core into higher take-rate verticals: iHYPE for institutional custody rails, Launch for HIP-3 capital formation, and Markets for builder-deployed perpetuals. We view Markets, launching Jan. 12, as the highest-potential product line given its mechanically scalable, activity-linked unit economics. Near-term revenue remains anchored by kHYPE's KIP-2 fee schedule (~$1.6M annualized), while Markets provides embedded optionality if HIP-3 economics normalize post-Growth Mode. KNTQ's setup is relatively clean: zero insider unlocks until November 2026, 6.2% buyback yield from staking revenue, and cleared airdrop overhang. Risks center on unproven Markets execution, declining kHYPE TVL despite ongoing incentives, and competition from Hyperliquid's native initiatives.
