Exclusive: Former NAGA CEO Ben Bilski launching “game changing” crypto trading venture #CriptoNews

FNG Exclusive… FNG has learned that Ben Bilski, founder and former CEO of Hamburg based online broker NAGA Group (ETR:N4G), is getting set to launch a new venture in the crypto trading space.

Ben Bilski left NAGA Group almost exactly one year ago, as was also exclusively reported at the time here at FNG, after the company agreed to be acquired by CAPEX.com. He served as CEO of NAGA Group from 2015 to 2023, when he slotted over to become CIO while handing the CEO reins at NAGA over to then-COO Michael Milonas, as NAGA’s shares tumbled amid concerns of falling revenues, large losses, overspending, and crippling debt coming due.

Since leaving NAGA, Ben has retreated into “stealth mode” for the past 12 months, and for the first time emerged today to describe what he is working on. In a lengthy social media post (see below), Ben outlined a “new way of trading in crypto”, combining democratized liquidity pools and market making, an own blockchain, social investing elements (an integral part of NAGA’s strategy when Ben was CEO), alongside an agentic AI ecosystem built for traders.

Describing his crypto plans as “game changing”, Ben’s post also solicited potential investors and others who might want to join his new venture.

Ben Bilski’s social media post today reads as follows.

A New Era of Crypto Trading is Coming

In the past 18 months, I had the privilege of witnessing token launches with valuations reaching hundreds of millions—and even a billion dollars—traded by hundreds of thousands of people. The scale, speed, and impact were nothing short of epic.

After years in crypto (since 2014), scaling companies from scratch to IPO, and executing large-scale projects, I took a step back to assess the imbalances and opportunities in the space. And I found something truly exciting—a loophole that changes everything.

So, what’s next?

I’m building a new way of trading in crypto, combining:
✅ Democratized liquidity pools & market making
✅ An own blockchain designed for scale & efficiency
✅ Strong social investing elements
✅ An agentic AI ecosystem built for traders

(And no, this isn’t just buzzwords—this will be game-changing.)

I’ve worked with some of the best minds in crypto and know what it takes to go big. And I’m still hungry for more.
