The BISON App Allows Uncomplicated and Reliable Trading of Cryptocurrencies on the Smartphone We were the first to provide crypto buying and selling from an in Germany licensed institution. Ulli Spankowski, CDO Börse Stuttgart Media Partnership This podcast is in media partnership with the Crypto Assets Conference, an event taking place each year in spring and autumn in Frankfurt, organized by the Frankfurt School of Finance and Management and their Blockchain Center. You can learn more about the conference here: https://www.crypto-assets-conference.de/ You can learn more about Philipp Sandner, head of the Blockchain Center in our interview with him here: https://www.startuprad.io/blog/the-german-bill-to-permit-crypto-securities/ The Chief Digital Officer This time we talk to Ulli Spankowski (https://de.linkedin.com/in/ulli-spankowski-08652916, https://twitter.com/uspankowski?lang=en, https://www.crunchbase.com/person/ulli-spankowski ) a fintech and blockchain entrepreneur, who sold his company to the Stuttgart Stock Exchange, which than promoted him to be the CDO (Chief Digital Officer). He is an economist by training, who did his PhD in market microstructure. He co-founded his fintech startup with co-founders from Slovenia. We met with the CIO of Börse Stuttgart - back then - and discussed what can be done with financial markets in the future, if you completely rethink it, based on blockchain technology.

Ulli Spankowski, CDO Börse Stuttgart The Startup Back in 2013, Ulli founded his startup Sowa Labs together with co-founders from Slovenia, which he met during an EU funded project during his Ph.D. Thesis. The idea of aggregating data from across the web and social media on cryptocurrencies evolved into cryptocurrency trading. They then sold the startup to the Stuttgart Stock Exchange in 2017 and developed what has become their BISON app: https://bisonapp.com/en/ (App Store, Google Play Store). This was not a bad move, since Börse Stuttgart is the market leader in Europe as a trading venue for retail structured products and one of the 10 largest stock exchanges in Europe. We started out with cryptocurrencies, but we are planning to move gradually into security tokens. Ulli Spankowski, CDO Börse Stuttgart When I was attending conferences [at the beginning of cryptocurrencies] I always said “The biggest problem of cryptocurrencies is that no one cares about them” Ulli Spankowski, CDO Börse Stuttgart Further Readings / Additional Resources Market Microstructure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_microstructure Börse Stuttgart: https://www.boerse-stuttgart.de/en/ Multilateral trading facility:
